Sažetak
Folk literature (poem), as a phenomenon, has been developing with its specific qualities within artistic and traditional oral Croatian literature, starting from records of biblical legends until the present time. Being closely connected to oral literature on the one side, and to artistic literature on the other, folk literature may be regarded as a sort of transitional area. It is believed that the distinctive features of this genre are possible to be shown only from the time when oral literary texts began to be more systematically written, which enabled both their synchronyc and diachronic perspective. With regard to this, this paper briefly refers to the terminological problems concerning notions popular, oral and folk literature. The primary aim of this paper is to show some of the specific qualities of popular and folk poems recognized on the basis of stylistic analysis conducted on a personally collected corpus of lyrical poems of our oral literature. The research method is retained at the linguistic level, which means that voice (speech) figures are being recognized and then their correlation with verse and functions which they realize are being analysed. The paper concludes with the discussion on the sufficiency of this approach used to achieve a thorough and accurate establishment of distinctive elements between these two oral literature genres, also pointing out the need for new methodological techniques for a more systematic study of the folk literature phenomenon, not enough scientifically interpreted in Croatian literary science so far.
