Among various Čep’s literary fascinations, Karel Hynek Mácha retains an important place. The Romantic writer (Mácha) and the 20th century Catholic novelist (Čep) are connected mainly by the same conception of a man in his relationship with the world and God. They share the same approach towards the passing of time, which in turn seems to be the key to being and understanding existence. The fascination...
Foltin is a musical community, and I say community and not group, because the word group is associated with the crowd. This is my attempt totry to explain the process of reading the important characteristics of purposeful meaning in the poetry of Branko Nikolov (Foltin). This kind of reading is qualitatively different from ordinary reading. Namely, we will dare to read from an ethnographic ...

The subject of media entity dominates the corpus of texts in intermedial and post-intermedial poetry experience.

Given the prominent position in the Croatian cultural imagination of Vlaho Bukovac’s 1895 painting of the Illyrian Movement, this article argues that the later accounts of early to mid- 19th century Illyrian politics and literature remain contaminated, and structurally so, by Bukovac’s treatment of the visual. This visual contaminant then points to more general political and cultural...
This work deals with the problem of intersemiotics in Orthodox Slavonic culture in the Middle Ages. Attention here is focused on the source, essence and ontology of correspondence of the arts. Despite the fact that in the Middle Ages word and image (icons, frescos, miniatures of manuscripts) had completely different specificity of signs, they were connected with each other on a different...
The aim of this article is to present how oral biography and photo-interviews are intertwined. In this sense, it is very important to illustrate the various methods of photo fieldwork, and also to highlight theoretical concepts (such as those of Panofsky, Collier and Barthes) in order to discover photo-analysis, the relation between oral and visual memory, and the phenomenological play...
The article takes up the problem of the medieval manuscript as an example of a total work of art. Miniature painting is an example of diffusional transmittance of the various semiotic orders, which define each other and lead to the creation of a reflection of divine beauty and harmony. The text also refers to the problem of iconoclasm. Historical material from the South Slavic ...

It is achieved through a ready-made technique in which a significant role is played by the music group Foltin and their...

The work is inspired by Slavko Kolar’s rural prose, naive paintings by artists from Hlebine and north Croatian folk rites and songs. In this film, Babaja presents a naturalistic...
In this article we shall compare the literary work Slavonian forest by Josip Kozarac with Adolf Waldinger’s oil painting Slavonian forest, including his drawings and pictures of a Slavonian forest and forest details. Comparison is made primarily on the basis of their resemblance. Not only do both of these works have the same inspiration and structure, but in...
Folk healers and their ability to heal can be connected with death or the being owned by death. This deeply archaic structure is evident in how knowledge is acquired, namely that it is passed on from mother to daughter or granddaughter/grandson in a place that suggests a connection to the other world (water, bridge). It is also evident in the fact that the women performing charms must...
