SEMIOTIČKI I INTERTEKSTUALNI ASPEKTI HRONOTOPA UBISTVA NA VRATIMA KUĆE KOD IVA ANDRIĆA I GABRIJELA MARKESA
INTERTEXTUAL ASPECTS OF THE CHRONOTOPE OF A MURDER ON THE DOORSTEP IN IVO ANDRIC AND GABRIEL MARQUES IN THE LIGHT OF THE SEMIOTICS OF CULTURE

Summary/Abstract: The unexplored chronotope of a murder at the doorstep in the novels Omer-Pasha Latas by Ivo Andric and Chronicle o f a Death Foretold by Gabriel Garcia Marques - motivated by sexuality, has been compared and culturally considered in a semiotic key of the theory of semiosphere from the aspect of intertextuality. hi its system of self description, every culture regulates relationships in the domain of its crucial interrogative aspects and prescribes what is right and what is wrong. This is also done in the area of sexuality, hi cultures that are similar to each other, such as those coded by traditional and patriarchal dreads in synergy with religious norms, semiospherical self description, according to the principles of modularity, encodes similarly relations towards major aspects of life, including issues of gender relations. Therefore, semiospherical cores (such as autochthony Bosnian one in the middle of the nineteenth and Latino-American at the beginning of the twentieth century) are seemingly different in appearance but in their self description and establishment, they actually recombine similar modules – cultural patterns towards gender and behaviour towards failure to respect customs. A patriarchal family in such cultures emerges as an important agent, hi this regard, it has been pointed out to intertextual aspects in structuring description and narrative settings of referent texts, as well as to important aspects of poetics of intertextual motifs of the chronotope of the murder at the doorstep as a symbol of protection and shelter - invariant symbol in all cultures, which is in the rhetorical and dramaturgical aspects surprisingly similar in two Nobel Prize winners - Ivo Andric and Gabriel Marques.
