Sažetak
This paper deals with the motif of the dream and its position in Croatian oral ballads. The paper starts with a theoretical overview of ballads, followed by an attempt to answer the questions that have arisen concerning ballads containing dreams. The research is based on a corpus of oral poems taken from the following collections: Hrvatske narodne pjesme (Croatian Folk Songs), volume 5 (Ženske pjesme: Romance i Balade; [Women’s Songs: Romances and Ballads]) and volume 10 (Ženske pjesme: Haremske pričalice i bunjevačke groktalice [Women’s Songs: Pričalice from the Harem and Bunjevci Groktalice]), Narodne pjesme iz Luke na Šipanu (Folk Songs from Luka on the Island of Šipan) by Andro Murat and Narodna pjesmarica (Folk Songbook) by Mihovil Pavlinović. The dreams are analyzed from a mythical perspective because of the specific understanding of dreams in Croatian oral ballads as messages from a higher power.
