POLEMICS BETWEEN S.IVŠIĆ AND N.ANDRIĆ REGARDING ANDRIĆ'S “BRANIČ JEZIKA HRVATSKOGA”
Zlatko Vince
; Zagreb
Abstract
The author discusses in comprehensive detail the lengthy polemics which arose between young S.Ivšić and N.Andrić when Andrić's book “Branič jezika hrvatskoga” appeared in 1911 (in two editions). Ivšić was very critical of Andrić's erroneous linguistic views and solutions, showing himself to be a penetrating expert in problems concerning the literary language. He also noted very precisely and subtly every single imperfection in Andrić's work, be it a linguistic or stylistic one.
Having analysed the problems that are the subject of many of Ivšić and Andrić's articles in Hrvatski pokret, Narodni list and same other newspapers, the author of this discussion finds Ivšić's final criticism of Andrić and his book exaggerated.
In spite of some undeniable mistakes and a lack of stylistic precision, Andrić's book was, no doubt, at that time and for following generations, not only useful but also inspiring and a source of new ideas. This view is upheld by an analysis of Andrić's correct solutions.
