Abstract

The paper demonstrates why certain well-established notions about Balade Petrice Kerempuha – the privileging of a folk worldview at the expense of a bourgeois perspective and the affirmation of the kajkavian dialect, in particular – cannot be supported by textual evidence, and aims to show that the work in question is eminently modernist in nature, in which the binary opposition popular vs. folk is ablated in the dialectics of poetic creation, the satiric purpose of which is precisely to reveal the reader’s prejudices.
