Misao o pravu u "Prokletoj avliji"
The idea of law in "The damned yard"

Summary/Abstract: In this paper the author analyzes the eminent work of Ivo Andric, "The Damned yard", in his subtle legally aesthetic manner. Even though it was not easy at all, he undertook a task to extract the idea of law from a literary work without violating an artistic tissue and artistic value of this work, without ruining what makes it an artistic creation, thus without touching its artistic autonomy and artistic status. Based on a thoughtful legally aesthetic observation and examination, he managed to present an entire spectrum of the idea of law which was literary shaped and contained in Andric's work, different lighting of the legal phenomenon realized by a literary procedure and performed by literary means. For these reasons every reader of this text, especially if he/she is a lawyer, will enrich epistemologically his/her knowledge of law by the idea of law as well, skillfully discovered by its author where it is rarely searched for and even more rarely found.
