Sažetak
The anthropology of begging and eco-history of the collection Podgorske pripovijetke (Podgorje Stories) (1889) by Vjenceslav Novak, where the anthological Podgorska lutrijašica (Podgorje Lottery Seller) (Vijenac, 1889) stands out, in relation to the dyad of father/mother -daughter/son, documents a subaltern relationship from the position of the honour of begging in which parents considered children corrupt who were ashamed of begging.In the second part of the article, Novak’s mentioned theme of the anthropology of begging and solidarity is placed in context with the social feuilletons of Miroslav Krleža. In the weekly publication Narodna zaštita (National Protection) intended, according to the attribution in the subtitle, for the wartime helpless and orphans, Krleža published a feuilleton on 8th November 1917, as his first article about the poor, How do poor people in Zagreb live? Krleža’s second article about the poor, the feuilleton Narod koji gladuje (The hungry people), which he defines as a variant about the sorghum/Osyris alba which Herzegovinians" fed on like flatbread", is written on the theme of the shocking examples of the survival strategies of the Herzegovinians who were, in the area of the struggle of their own starving bodies, forced to eat sorghum.
