Abstract
Nedjeljko Fabrio’s third novel, Death of Vronsky (1994) has been read by many scholars within the framework of Croatian literary discourse. Intending to contribute to the studies of interrelations between Croatian and European literature, I show how Nedjeljko Fabrio recycles the Byronic tropes and thought-forms from Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina, yet with a surprising twist of looking back to Plato’s Socrates and his Allegory of the Cave, whose mindscape seems to underpin Byron’s mental theatre and Nedjeljko Fabrio’s novel.
Keywords
Fabrio; Byron; Tolstoy; Don Juanism; the erotics of homesickness
