Sažetak
Eliza Gerner (Sombor, 1920 – Zagreb, 2013) is the first Croatian actress to publish her memoirs. The paper contextualises eight memoirs by Eliza Gerner within the genre characteristics of autobiographic prose. Gerner’s memoirs are social memoirs rooted in the author’s polydiscursivity and fragmentary self-representation. The paper then explores the memoirs, focusing on specific topics: Gerner’s professional engagement, the life and work of Tito Strozzi, her association with Bela and Miroslav Krleža and portraits of Croatian actresses. The analysis focuses on Gerner’s discourse on the status of women and specifically actresses in the 20th century, which reveals Gerner’s partial reinterpretation of the history of Croatian theatre, and establishes her books as a contribution to cultural memory in Croatia.
