Abstract

This work will analyze obituaries published in the local papers at the time of death of Croatian writer Fran Galović, namely, the dailies Obzor, Hrvatska, Hrvatski pokret, Narodne novine and the monthly magazine Savremenik. Special attention will be given to obituaries which made mention of the postal card Galović sent to Milan Ogrizović shortly before his death and how it spawned alternative theories about his death. Additional material includes various texts written under the watchful eyes of the censors framing the poet’s tragic death as a heroic act in service to his country.
