Dubravka Ugre i 's 1983 short story "Hrenovka u vru em pecivu" ("Hot Dog on a Warm Bun") self-consciously parodies N.V. Gogol''s 1836 "Nos" ("The Nose"). Building on the tradition of "noseology," a literary sub-genre in 1820s and 1830s Russia, Ugre i parodies the highly symbolic interpretations of "The Nose" that dominated both Formalist and psychoanalytic literary criticism in early-twentieth-century Russia. Copying and revising Freudian interpretations of "The Nose," wherein the nose symbolizes the phallus, Ugre i substitutes Nada Mati —the female plastic surgeon who finds Mato Kovali 's penis on her hot dog bun—for Gogol''s Ivan Iakovlevich—the barber who discovers Kovalev's nose in his bread. Through the postmodern misadventures of Mati 's "hot dog," Ugre i humorously reproduces and undermines the Lacanian assertion that the penis is merely the image of the phallus. As Ugre i dismantles the phallus's imaginary "veils," she also unmasks persistant gender inequality and a virulent socio-political backlash during the immediate post-Tito years. Ugre i embeds in her psychoanalytic parody an incisive reading of gender discourse and local feminisms in 1980s Yugoslavia.
