Sažetak
The material for this collection was gathered during the author's
ten-day study tour of the island of Zlarin in July 1975. A brief introduction is intended to provide basic information about
the folk narratives of Zlarin and about the narrators.
The bulk of the narrative material consists of legends, both mythological and historical. In them, the narrators almost invariably
express also their emotive links with the local scenery. The legends
themselves are often connected with specific localities on the. island:
thus, fairies always appear at Lokvica (a large water cistern), Greek
galleys are said to have often called at Srima (where the Zlarin farmers worked in their fields), a diviner is said to have lived at Kotor, and a famous diviness at Glavica. The intention in this collection has been to preserve the narrator's attitude to the story, and that is the reason why some of the motifs appear in several variant narrations.
