THE DEMONIC VITALISM OF THE FEMME FATALE AS A TRAGIC EXPRESSION OF REBELLION - KAP ŠPANSKE KRVI (A DROP OF SPANISH BLOOD) BY MILOŠ CRNJANSKI

Summary/Abstract: This paper points to the exceptional place of the novel Kap španske krvi (A Drop of Spanish Blood, 1932) in the literary work of Miloš Crnjanski and Serbian literature of the 20th century. The novel is overpowered by other great literary pieces by Crnjanski Dnevnik o Čarnojeviću (The Journal of Čarnojević), Seobe (Migrations), Druga knjiga Seoba (Other books of Migrations), Roman o Londonu (A Novel about London). Nevertheless, it is interpreted as the first Serbian novel in which the model of a fatal woman is activated and, in the era of modernism, revitalizes the romantic concept of femme fatale.
