Sažetak
This paper will present the texts collected in the books Pisma iz života (2009) and Živjeti u književnosti (critical-memoir essays, glosses and paljetci, 2013) by academician Dubravko Jelčić. The paper will analyze the elements of Dubravko Jelčić’s scientific and journalistic discourse that connect the spheres of cultural, political, artistic, literary and scientific, as well as personal life. The structure of the texts collected under the common title Living in Literature is particularly interesting because they contain texts about writers written by Jelčić before and after the acquisition of Croatian independence. He will investigate the issues of literary historical methodology that Jelčić incorporates into critical-memoir essays about Croatian writers. The texts reveal the complexity of Croatian literary situations, which Jelčić considers in the context of the totality of life. The complexity of socio-political events often encourages inventive survival practices in individuals, so Jelčić’s analysis of the relationship between literature and history is exemplified by the life stories of writers, but also by the fate of their literary legacy. Jelčić’s insistence on the repeated reading of literary works in different socio-political contexts contains questions about the immanent meaning of the text and the freedom of critical interpretation. Jelčić, in his journalistic texts entitled Letters from Life, tries to raise awareness of the need to actively reflect on Croatian history and culture, without suppressing traumatic events. Anthological literary texts play a special role in understanding Croatian identity, so Croatian life is revealed through the dialectics of history and art.
