Abstract

Folk poetry is a literary phenomenon which is characterized by well-established structure, themes and motives. It' s aim is to convey a specific lesson to community to which is addressed. Folk poetry, as well as the rest of folk literature, achived it's function in a community that has a selective role. The poetic function of folk songs is subordinated by didactic and entertainment function. Based on the folk songs of Ivan Šuljić Iveša I will try to reconstruct part of Novalja life with a comparison with records of Božidar Širola and the testimony of informants.
