Towards The Call Of Vila (Fairy) Slovinka Through Bašćina (Heritage) Of Juraj Barakovlć
Maja Kožić
Sažetak
"Vila Slovinka", Juraj Baraković's poem, is a valuable contribution to the research and the establishment of the beginnings of Croatian ethnological perception. This work was written in the 16th century and it is marked by two different styles: the Renaissance and the Baroque. The author tries to confirm in a careful analysis her idea about older Croatian literature being a source of many pieces of information relevant for roots of the future science - ethnology.
Baraković is, as well as his forerunners Zoranić and Hektorović, interested in ethnogenesis of the Croats. According to his education, he places the origins of his people in the ancient times. Baraković is the objective observer of his compatriots, life and customs, regardless of which social stratum they belong to. His characters are not "paper-made"-they are very alive, with all the human features. The poet is an excellent expert in folk poems, so that he includes them in his poem. As a good observer of social strata, he is completely aware of the value of customs, and therefore he also uses them in this work. The interesting part of this extensive poem is also Baraković's knowledge of history, his patriotism and the feeling for traditional heritage of his nation. Nevertheless, one thing must be kept in mind - this is all very far from the conscious scientific research, but it is still a big step towards.
