Abstract

In his paper, after a brief introduction, the author analyzes Mijo Radošević's novel “Caricatures” from a perspective of literary history by contextualizing the subject within the late Moderna movement in Croatia. Through the use of various forms of focalization, the author points out that in spite of the novel's appearance at a time of the avantgarde zeitgeist and domination of ideas that were topical at the turn of the century, the subject text is nevertheless a literary anachronism on the level of workmanship, thus communicating much more to realism (naturalism), than to the avantgarde, as was considered by the rare interpreters of this little known work.
