Abstract
Ivo Andrić started his literary career as a Croatian writer and as a part of Croatian literary and cultural space. With his transition to Beograd, he changes his expressive idiom to a certain point and therefor he explicitly expresses himself as a part of the Serbian literature. Even today arguments are led about his cultural, but also his national identity. Jelčić opposes to the labelling of Andrć’s opus to only Croatian literature, as well as labelling the rest of the opus to only Serbian literature. By the analysis of Andrić’s main topics and the way of his structural and stylistic interpretation of those topics, Jelčić proves that Andrić doesn’t divide topics and procedures followed in Serbian literary practice neither in his time or earlier. Finally, he defines Andrić’s literary affiliation same as Desnica’s – both are importantly signified with the conjunction ‘and’ – they belong to Croatian and Serbian literature.
