Abstract
Starting from the theoretical concept of models and mirrors of public events, as established by Don Handelman, the above-mentioned text positions these concepts within selected socio-political and cultural examples in Croatia. Here, Sinjska alka serves as an example of a mirror-presentation. Specifically, through the example of Malbaša’s modo epico, the article illustrates how Sinjska alka functions as a mirror-presentation—an event that operates with didactic and historicist intentions within the modern state and community.
