Nikola Batušić ; Croatian Academy of science and art

Abstract

This work is an analysis of the two phenomena regarding the character of Ugo Tudeško in Držić’s comedy Dundo Maroje. The first part speaks about some characteristics of Italian-German »macaronics« regarding the different sources and models which the author could know while creating this character. The other part is dedicated to »the case of Ugo Tudeško« from the adaptation and direction of Dundo Maroje (Zagreb, 1938) during the time of The Independent Republic of Croatia, when the repertoire success of the time, without any explanation, disappeared at the end of 1943 from the repertoire of The Croatian national Theatre, supposedly due to the caricatural characteristics of German Ugo.
