Međuratni modernizam: Nałkowska i Krleža — metafora »zle ljubavi« poljske i hrvatske književnosti

Author(s): Tea Rogić Musa / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 1/2021

This paper shall attempt to explain, from a literary historical perspective, the genesis of the Croatian translation of Zofja Nałkowska’s novel Niedobra miłość, considering the state and tendencies — both related and disparate — in Polish prose in the time of interwar Modernism and Croatian literature in the early 1930s, keeping in mind that the translation by Zdenka Marković, Zla ljubav, and Miroslav Krleža’s novel Povratak Filipa Latinovicza, were both printed in 1932.

Pustupci u prikazivanju djeda Neumijke

Author(s): Diana Zalar / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 4/2002

One of the most vital and interesting characters in the Croatian children's literature is that of grandfather Neumijko. The character was created and brought to life from the depths of mythology by lvana Brlić-Mažuranić in her story Lutonjica Toporko i devet župančića, and was given fresh features by the writer Truda Stamać in her collection of short stories Kapi (Drops). Grandfather Neumijko has now become a complex and many-layered character, sometimes showing conflicting features. This ambivalence in the Brlić-Mažuranić's story has been expressed especially at the macro-stylistic level. Truda Stamać describes grandfather's ambiguity in a shorter literary form, in a "mini-story" by means of some linguistic categories at the micro-stylistic level. The author of the paper concludes that this procedure affects the syntax so that Stamać's narrative expression is characterised by a specific, rich, reductionary and extentionary sentence rhythm.

PRIMJENA ODGOJNE DRAME U RADU SA DJECOM U RIZIKU

Author(s): Meliha Suljagić,Emina Dedić Bukvić / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 2/2018

The paper presents the experiences of educators who apply drama educational methods in educational work with children at risk. Dramatic educational methods imply ways of practical treatment and acting in drama educational work, which are drama games, exercises and techniques that carry out organized, deliberate and guided activities of the educational process. The term children at risk describes children and young people who are in adverse living conditions that threaten their positive development and successful adaptation to the society in which they live. The aim of the paper is to present the values and strength of the dramatic upbringing as an effective approach in achieving educational outcomes. The paper explains the concepts: drama pedagogy, drama education and methods of drama upbringing. In addition to theoretical presentation, the paper presents the results of an interview with educators who apply dramatic educational methods in educational work with children at risk. The conducted research aims to show the values and the power of applying educational drama in educational work with a group of children and young people who manifest behaviors that diverge from the legal and moral norms of the society in which it is and surrounds it. The obtained results of the research show that the methods of drama upbringing can be successfully implemented in educational work in processes related to learning of communication skills, developing creativity in the field of social relations, and experiencing their own success, which can often be hidden.

Ženski sukobi zbog nedostatka: ženska zavist zbog muškarca i/ili ljepote u književnim tekstovima južnoslavenske interliterarne zajednice

Author(s): Edisa Gazetić / Language(s): Bosnian Issue: 3/2021

Instead of subversive action, in literature, as well as in the culture, women clash and thus enable the unhindered survival of patriarchal norms. In some literary texts, female characters are often opposed, i.e. women show envy towards other women, either because of beauty or a man who is the object of desire. In any case, such opposition is often only part of a patriarchal strategy aimed at women's disunity that distances women from projects that would allow them to act more homogeneously and to oppose traditional patterns of behavior.

Irena Vrkljan U svijetu ladica: O recepciji opusa

Author(s): Mirela Dakić / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2020

The paper indicates general problems in the reception of écriture féminine (feminine writing, also often referred to as ”women’s writing”) in the Croatian science of literature during the period between 1983, when the thematic volume of the journal Republika was published, and the present day. It critically addresses its use in the reception of Irena Vrkljan’s autobiographic fiction, which is regarded as its paradigm in the contemporary Croatian literature. The analysis of the editions of the author’s works, literary criticism and histories of modern Croatian literature shows that the attribution of the term feminine writing to Irena Vrkljan’s fiction misinterpreted the concept while leaving the author’s earlier poetry aside. Working from the theoretical implications of écriture féminine and the author’s oeuvre, the paper considers the relation between feminine writing and the continuity between the author’s fiction and poetry as the basis of a critical approach to the main problems of former reception, as well as starting points for new interpretations of the author’s works.

Raspad Austro-Ugarske Monarhije i stvaranje Jugoslavije u romanu Unterstadt Ivane Šojat

Author(s): Dina Koprolčec / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2020

Unterstadt, a novel written by Ivana Šojat, is a saga about an Osijek family presented through the perspective of female characters, starting with great-grandmother Victoria Richter Meier during the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy and ending with Katarina Pavković, great-grand-daughter, in the first decade of the 21st century. The novel intertwines the implacable and ruthless weft of history around female characters. With the collapse of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy Victoria’s life moves from the stage of a wealthy and situated daughter of Richter, the owner of a watermill, to the position of a single mother of four children. Victoria is faced with the consequences of the posttraumatic stress of her husband Rudolf Meier, an imperial soldier who, after returning from the battlefield in Galicia in 1918, fails to cope with the new social and state order and history written by the victors, living in poverty, without true bond with the children and the fear with which he lives after the Great War. Through the practice of new historicism, I would like to show the existence of textual history and the historicity of texts (L. A. Montrose) as well as circulation of social energy (Greenblatt) in the novel Unterstadt.

De/konstruiranje diskursa moći (Elementi ideološke subverzije u narativnom diskursu Miljenka Jergovića i Josipa Mlakića)

Author(s): Emilija Kovač / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2020

Within the context of the communities that sense and shape their national identities as relatively reliable and mutually distinguishing given social conditions, the paper analyses the textualisations of a series of individually perceived culturologic stresses such as (not) belonging, not) being entrenched and (un) acceptability of self/Someone else. In line with the reflexions of E. Kazaz and M. Solar concerning the reductive effect of various centres of power, the narrative strategies were observed (positioning of a character, point of view, and intellectual suggestions and connotations) in recent works of authors who have been shaped up artistically and as persons in the surroundings that features strong quality of being ideologized (Miljenko Jergović, Josip Mlakić). The social reception of and the control over production (stipulating book-printing, awarding and the market corporative strategy), being a construct of ideologized institutions, are the sharetakers in the game of masses and power in which the pluralization of the profile of readers, creativeness and market strategies eventually do provide for a coexistence of a polyphony of ideas, aesthetic values and views of the world.

Apotropejska Muka Isuskarstova: tragovi kolanja jednoga oblika ranonovovjekovne pučke pobožnosti Kristovim ranama i krvi u hrvatskoglagoljskoj rukopisnoj kulturi

Author(s): Josip Vučković / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2021

The Passion of Jesus Christ is a popular devotional text created to promote the worship of Christ’s blood and wounds. It originated in the early modern times as an echo of late medieval listing and counting forms of piety. A typical early modern version of the Passion of Jesus Christ consists of Christ’s address to three women mystics who prayed for a revelation of the number of blows and drops of blood he shed during the Passion, a description of devotional practice in honor of the Passion, a list of graces that can be obtained by such devotion, and the attribution of apotropaic properties to its copies. It has been shown that the text was circulated in numerous cultures (e.g., English, Ethiopian, German, Irish, Italian), however, its early modern dissemination in the cultural area of Glagolitic literacy has not been treated. This paper analyzes the surviving Croatian Glagolitic attestations of the Passion of Jesus Christ by situating them in a broader comparative context. The comparison of the Croatian Glagolitic Passion of Jesus Christ with an Italian amulet found in Roccapelago (Emilia-Romagna) revealed that this text appeared in the Croatian Glagolitic cultural area as the result of a trans-Adriatic cultural transfer. Moreover, the paper shows that Croatian Glagolitic writers not only disseminated the Passion of Jesus Christ in codices, but indeed utilized it as a template in the production of textual amulets.

Ispreplitanje autobiografije, historije i kulture u romanu Liber memorabilium Ivana Lovrenovića

Author(s): Merima Šabanović / Language(s): Bosnian,Croatian,Serbian Issue: 6/2022

Through the analysis of the novel Liber memorabilium by Ivan Lovrenović, the author presents its socio‑historical and ideological context, the position of the narrator, the influence of worldview on the formation of the story and the development of characters, autobiographical elements as well as the echo of the current literary period. The center of the novelistic narration is the reconstruction of the biography of the father who disappeared in WWII, as well as the revival of destroyed documents from the previous war in Bosnia. Taking this into account, the author emphasizes the cultural dimension of the text and asserts that this is a work in which the humanist values are juxtaposed to militant wefts. Furthermore, the author explains why Liber memorabilium can also be read as an autobiographical novel and family chronicle and new historical fiction as well as social drama novel. In its final consideration, the paper describes how the focus shifts from the collective to the individual and their fate in key historical events, and how Lovrenović, by choosing the method of creative reconstruction becomes subversive towards destructive ideologies and current political systems.

Hrvatsko-rumunjske kulturne veze na stranicama književnih časopisa u vrijeme NDH 1941.–1945.

Author(s): Dubravka Luić-Vudrag / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2016

The Kingdom of Romania had recognized the Independent State of Croatia (NDH) already in August 1941. Both countries belonged to the Axis powers and were strengthening their mutual political and cultural relations. The clearest reflection of the Croatian-Romanian cultural relations can be traced through the journal Hrvatska revija (Croatian Review) which published articles on the latest social, cultural and artistic events in Croatia and abroad, and was the central literary journal of the interwar and World War II period in Croatia. It was published monthly by Matica Hrvatska (Central Croatian Cultural and Publishing Society) from 1928 until the fall of the Independent State of Croatia in 1945. The first article related to Romania was published in 1942 Moderna rumunjska umjetnost i Rumunjski krajobrazi (The Romanian Modern Art and the Romanian Landscapes) written by Ernest Bauer, who worked in the Embassy of the Independent State of Croatia in Bucharest. The third volume of Croatian Review, published in 1944, was entirely devoted to Romania. At that time, the Romanians and the Croats had a common goal, the fight against Bolshevik imperialism, and since they were both small nations it was important to know each other well. This volume had brought four novellas and six poems whose authors were Romanian writers: Mihail Eminescu, Ion Luca Caragiale, Octavian Goga, Mihail Sadoveanu, Tudor Arghezi, Ioan Alexandru Bratescu-Voinesti, Nichifor Crainic Victor Papilian, George Bacovia and Lucian Blaga. The articles were about the Romanian theater and art. The volume also brought the text on the literary journal Gandirea, which had dedicated one of its volumes to Croats. The editor, poet Nichifor Crainic presented the concept of the special number that, in a series of interviews with Croatian writers, brought information about their work. The paper will reveal some previously unknown details about the situations and events from the history of the Romanian-Croatian relations during the World War II, which had been recorded on the pages of literary journals. The new findings will help future researchers, authors of comparative literary studies because they will shed some light on the previously unexplored period of Croatian and Romanian cultural history.

Nepromjenjive riječi u hrvatskoglagoljskim brevijarima

Author(s): Tanja Kuštović / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2016

U radu se analiziraju nepromjenjive riječi (prilozi, prijedlozi, veznici, uzvici i čestice) u hrvatskoglagoljskim otisnutim brevijarima (Kosinjski brevijar, Baromićev brevijar, Brozićev brevijar) i u rukopisnom II. novljanskom brevijaru. Pritom se analiziraju psalamski tekstovi kao primjer liturgijskih tekstova i tekst legende o sv. Pavlu Pustinjaku kao primjer neliturgijskih tekstova. Usporednom analizom pokušava se ustanoviti postoje li razlike u tvorbi i upotrebi nepromjenjivih riječi između liturgijskih i neliturgijskih tekstova, te kakav je odnos hrvatskih prema staroslavenskim elementima. Dolazi se do zaključka da nema razlike u upotrebi nepromjenjivih riječi između liturgijskih i neliturgijskih tekstova. Na temelju samih oblika nepromjenjivih riječi utvrđuje se da su svi proučavani tekstovi hrvatsko- staroslavenski, premda fonološki često dolazi do pokušaja prilagođavanja staroslavenskom jeziku (npr. zamjenjivanja iskonskog samoglasnika a poluglasom u prijedlozima: nanь, za- zь, prilogu: nьpridь- naprêždь).

Komemorativne svečanosti i proizvodnja svjetovnih Svetaca Gundulićeva slavlja u hrvatskoj književnosti 19. st.

Author(s): Marina Protrka Štimec / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2016

Secularization of public space in 18th and 19th Century was connected with broader aesthetic, cultural and political changes that led Croatian literature of this time to thorough processes. Sacral aura, as Aleida Assmann demonstrated, has been transmitted from religious to the cultural and artistic (especially literary) space that served as the main point of national legitimization. At this point, only aesthetical autonomy, as Peter Bürger clearly demonstrates, assures adequate its pedagogical role in society. That seemingly paradox assures understanding and placing canon writers in national and “universal” culture and society. This paper deals with commemorative practices as a privileged forms in production culture of memory that generate social and aesthetic values. 19th Century Croatian literature affirms baroque author Ivan Gundulić as a grounding stone of collective identity and a greatest symbolic value. As a canon writer and a cultural icon, he was declared to be “founding father” of national literature. His commemorative ceremonies during organized in 1838, 1888 and 1893. revealed recognizable common pattern that was the result of actual changes, cultural transfers and, as J. Leerssen pointed out, inter-national displays. Although all this festivals has been organized in Ivan Gundulić's honor, following common pattern, they were clearly showing broader changes in the ways that literature posits itself in broader social space.

Metodološke pretpostavke paleografskog opisa hrvatske liturgijske glagoljice XIV. i XV. stoljeća

Author(s): Mateo Žagar / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2016

The fourteenth and fifteenth century are often referred to as ‘the golden age’ of Croatian Glagolitism, due to rich, highly reputable and functionally diverse written production, developed in stable material conditions under the influence of the contact Latin minuscule writing. The defined palaeographic description of the dynamic creation of liturgical minuscule in the thirteenth century demanded further methodological advance: following the adaptation of older majuscule lettering form to the four-lined (minuscule) practice and the formation of a lettering model typical for the angular Glagolitic script – a rectangle divided into six equal parts ( ) – the script dynamics (reduced as it may have been) moved to other, more irrelevant and less visible areas. Therefore, it will be interesting to observe the adherence to the inherited lettering model of that time, possible changes in the lettering inventory, and the extent of the Latin writing influence as well as the presence of peculiarities characteristic for the restricted time period or certain regions (scriptoria and even notaries). Our attention will be predominantly directed towards The first Beram (Ljubljana) breviary, copied for the Beram church in mid-Istria on the end of the 14th century. The extensive five-year long research will be done within the project by The Scientific Centre of Excellence for Croatian Glagolitism. We will use that opportunity to present a detailed strategy of palaeographic approach to a monument from the so-called ‘stable times’, when the premises for defining the final solutions in Glagolitic print were established (since the 1483 editio princeps ). In the period that followed, we can only trace the typographic changes in liturgical books (‘angular Glagolitic script’ area). From the sixteenth century onwards, the handwriting creativity of our Glagolites was reduced to the texts of more liberal graphic practice - written in Glagolitic semi-angular script or cursive script.

Perpetuarea stereotipului rusului în noile forme de exprimare media: jocurile video

Author(s): Gabriela Pătrașcu / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 2/2015

In recent years, technological development had led to the immersion of new forms of communication and expression, forms that dictate the global mindset, especially among the young generation. If in the past it could be said that such a form of expression was represented by the media, now an increasingly important role is played by video games. As opposed to other countries, Russia has been depicted in a multitude of ways, most of them being perpetuations of old stereotypes. Considering this, the paper proposes to analyze the portrayals of Russia and its people in video games, and, as well, find the causes of Russian stereotypes in games and their influence on the global mentality.

O jeziku Šime Budinića

Author(s): Sanja Vulić,Maria Laţchici / Language(s): Croatian Issue: 2/2013

Sime Budinić, (1530/35-1600), was a Renaissance church writer and translator. Born in Zadar. Budinić was great admirer of the cultural heritage of Cyril and Methodius , and knew very well Glagolitic and Cyrillic literature. Early eighties of the 16th century in Rome were published several of his works (Pokorni i mnogi ini psalmi Davidovi, 1582). Due to the fact that he was speaking čakavian dialect his first works are based on this dialect, but later he was increasingly trying to pass to štokavian dialect because he wanted his works to be understood by a large number of readers. This paper analyzes čakavian and kajkavian features in the two selected works of Šime Budinić. The analysis includes graphs, vocalisms, consonantism, case forms, verb forms and some elements of syntax. All settings are supported by concrete examples.

Imaginea etnografică a României în viziunea reprezentanţilor şcolii antropologice croate între anii 1938 şi 1944

Author(s): Armand Guţă / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 4/2012

This study aims to underline the scientific Croatian point of view over the Romanian people and Romanian state. First of all this study explain the Croatian perception about cultural and historic values of the Romanian nation and on the other hand the direct and real travellers perception upon interbelic Romanian society with its peculiarities and tendencies. Both Croatian ethnographs are old connoisseurs of Romanian history and traditions but one of them is a Special Envoy of the National Croatian State and his mission was the underline the Romanian national spirit and its values. On the other side Messne Sporsić travel description from Belgrade to Ankara through Romania and Bulgaria is like a picture of an neorealist painter which describe into black and white the Romanian national spirit and Bucharest manners on the fourth decade of the XX century. Both essays contain of course many appreciation, criticims and oppinions through each author have tried to provide his personal impresions for the Croatian readers. But the Croats monographers have succeed to describe a realistic spatial and temporal projection about a nation and close proximity state whose history and policy seldom interrelated with the Croatian state.
