Absalom and Hanibal (Marko Marulić and the Hvar Literary Circle)
Mirko Tomasović
Sažetak
The writer of this paper considers the relationship between the Split and the Hvar artistic and Renaissance poetic circle in the light of the newly-found Marulić Latin epigrams (Glasgow Verses, edited and translated by Darko Novaković, Zagreb 1999). He has noted a certain likeness between the description of Hanibal Lucić in Marulić’s Latin encomium of this Croatian poet and the description of Absalom in the Davidias (X, 328-334). The second epigram, quite a lot more conventional, was dedicated to the Hvar lady Katarina Gazarović, whose literary works have yet to be found, although Marulić in this poem confirms their existence. The paper also analyses the respect of the other writers of Hvar for “the father of Croatian literature”, particularly of Vinko Pribojević and Petar Hektorović, and the connections of Marulić’s younger Split contemporaries (Jeronim Martinčić, Nikola Matulić and Frane Božićević) with Hanibal Lucić, who exchanged poetic epistles with them. In the conclusion the central position of Marulić as literary authority in the 16th century is established, not only in the Hvar but also in the Zadar literary circle.
