Résumé anglais |
It might be interesting to examine the attitude of the Sorbian writers towards the GDR, since the Sorbs were the only ethnic minority of the country and one can assume that their writings reflect the approach of the Sorbian population. That attitude evolved during the 40 years of the GDR's existence. At the beginning, soon after the end of the Second World War, the Sorbian writers supported a new regime, that granted the Sorbians many cultural institutions, a privilege they had not known before. But as the regime became more and more authoritarian, the Sorbians were progressively faced with measures far from a democratic practice. The writers learned to mask their remarks, for caution was recommended. From 1990 on, the writers expressed freely what they had had previously to keep for themselves. However, those critics were always moderate, because the Sorbian writers never wanted to jeopardise a status the Sorbian population had been granted by the GDR for the first time in History.
