LOOKING FOR THE COLOURS AS A WAY TO MATURITY

Sažetak
White clown as a novel of character leads us into the late childhood of a boy
who can't recognize colors and grows up as a son of trawelling circus clowns, unabled
to keep in touch with certain place and people. There is a triad important for the novel:
dragon – boy – old man. The dragon belongs to dream, symbolizes the unconscious part
of boy's personality and struggles for a place in his conscious life. The boy represents
conscious personality (ego) and realizes his comprehension development by help of a
wise old man, who is his symbolic superego.
The spaces of wood and dream, associatively close one to another, hide secrets
and wisement in themselves and are connected with boy's comprehension development.
The work deals with his growing up in a framework of social relationships and on the
unconscious level of his being. The social environment is a starting position for the
analysis of other relationships in the novel.
