The Pit is a masterful refection of one country’s reality, a septic pit in which crime, false war merits and actual profiteering, political menace cloaked in cheap patriotism, bloodstained secrets of recent past and hypocrisy coming from those offering a bright future, are being fermented and accumulated.

DRAGO HEDL, WRITER JANNE TELLER, A WRITER Developed as a classic thriller in which the murders are multiplying, this novel represents the devastation the war has left behind, a good 15 years after it had nominally ended on the territory of the Republic of Croatia. The most important thing to emphasize is the representation of a collective downfall which is equal on both sides, the one which participated in the aggression and the one that defended itself from this aggression. The worldview which this narrative constructs is quite literally a hole, a pit in which the corpses that were slaughtered in horrible ways on Ovčara are buried together with the remains of our collective humanity. Its magnetic power is gargantuan, so much so that it transforms into a cosmic black hole which swallows all of us and turns us into non-humans, creatures without morality. And that is this war’s greatest defeat. Both the aggressors and the victims are left without any possibility of redemption, without any chance of love which has always been the only path into the future.

(Under the direction of Carole L. Crumley) This research explores the issues of family farming and sustainable practices at two levels. On one level, it compares and contrasts the sustainable farming practices of farming families in Štitar, Croatia with the smallholders as described by the theory of cultural ecology. On another level, it contrasts the European Union’s (EU) Common Agricultural Policy’s (CAP) vision of sustainability to that posited by cultural ecologists and it seeks to understand the reaction of Štitar farmers to the CAP. My research goal is to explore how the social, economic and environmental health and status of the village, which is influenced by local traditional ethics and agricultural practices, fits with the CAP goals of rural preservation and agricultural sustainability.

  • Baroque Art in Croatia and the Vienna School of Art History
    Baroque Art in Croatia and the Vienna School of Art History Dubravka Botica Introduction The history of studying Baroque art reflects the development of art history in Croatia. The art of the Baroque period was not in the foreground at the early stages of the field’s development, nor was it a topical issue later on, such as contemporary or medieval art. The questions on Baroque did not lead to politically charged discussions, such as art and art criticism of the 1950s or the question of national identity in medieval art of the Adriatic coast. The study of Baroque art in Croatia was heavily influenced by the Vienna School of Art History, its most prominent protagonists and research topics, and this influence was present throughout the entire twentieth century. It can be compared to the issue of cultural heritage conservation, which evolved in Croatia under the direct influence of the Vienna School and Vienna as a political centre, not only by adopting ideas but also by establishing institutions responsible for the protection of cultural heritage during the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. The paper briefly discusses some aspects of work and methods of Wiener Schule der Kunstgeschichte (‘Vienna School of Art History’) that have had an impact on Croatian art history.1 It gives a short overview of the beginnings of art history in Croatia with Ivan Kukuljević Sakcinski and Iso Kršnjavi, as well as the most important occurrences that shaped the field’s development and cultural sphere at the end of the nineteenth century, with the aim of explaining the great upturn in researching and appraising Baroque art at the beginning of the twentieth century brought about by Gjuro Szabo, who adopted the ideas and theses of Vienna School, especially those of Alois Riegl.

  • CONFLICT Vs. LAUGHTER: the GREATEST AUTHORIAL BATTLE in CROATIAN CHILDREN's LITERATURE
    Ž. Flegar, K.Švarc CONFLICT vs. LAUGHTER: THE GREATEST AUTHORIAL BATTLE IN CROATIAN CHILDREN’S LITERATURE This article will discuss conflict as a source of humour in the young adult novel Love or Death (1987) by Croatia’s legendary author Ivan Kušan. In 1956 the first novel in the Koko series, The Mystery of Green Hill, was one of the publications that marked the beginning of Croatian modern children’s literature. After the adventures in novels such as Koko and the Ghosts (1958) and The Mystery of the Stolen Painting (1972), in 1982 the character of Koko appears during the rebellion of various Kušan’s char- acters in Terrible Cowboy (1982) and offers Kušan his own manuscript for revision, titled Love or Death. Raising the issue of authorship, authority and truth characteristic of metafictional practices, Love or Death is a novel in which the main protagonist Ratko Milić Koko assumes ownership of the narrative, whereas Kušan as the author is “demoted“ to the role of a “proofreader”, commenting, correcting and doodling with a red pen in the margins of Koko’s text. Essentially, Love or Death retains the legacy of modernity and its markings in the context of Croatian writing for children, yet, the novel also contains visual deviations, word play, playfulness, irony, cross-genre writing, parody of literary “classics,“ hyperbolising, intertextuality, trivialising, character/authorial intrusion, mass media synchronicity, and dissolution of language in its standard form, characteristic of postmodern literary practices [Hranjec 2001]. Because of the authorial conflict, the novel is strongly intergenerational, placing the main protagonist on the threshold of adolescence, and its humour resulting from the power struggle between the authors of a different age and their respective discourse.

  • ON TURKISH LOANWORDS in CROATIAN LANGUAGE Lidija BAN, Darko MATOVAC
    Trakya Üniversitesi Edebiyat Fakültesi Dergisi, Cilt: 2, Sayı: 4, Temmuz-2012, s. 155-166 ON TURKISH LOANWORDS IN CROATIAN LANGUAGE Lidija BAN, Darko MATOVAC ABSTRACT: This paper deals with one of the most numerous groups of loanwords in Croatian language–the ones that are coming from or through Turkish language. Basic information on Croatian language that is given in the introductory part of the paper is followed by some historical facts and explanations of the somewhat problematic label turcizmi. Furthermore, three types of Turkish loanwords in Croatian language are discussed and exemplified. The first group consists of words that are part of standard language and that have no (valid) Croatian replacement. The second group consists of words that have to do with some aspect of Turkish and oriental reality. The third group consists of words that are not part of standard language but are actively used in regional idioms. The paper also deals with attitudes towards Turkish loanwords. Keywords: Croatian language, Turkish language, loanwords.
