Sažetak
Despite the fact that he did not attend the manifestation Hvar Theatre Days often, Josip Torbarina’s contribution to it was great just like his contribution to the development of Croatian comparative literature. He first attended the manifestation in 1794 with the paper entitled Dubrovnik’s Romeo and Giuliette, his second attendance occured in 1976 with the paper entitled Palmotić’s Pavlimir and Shakespeare’s The Tempest and his third attendance occured in 1978 with the paper entitled Illyrian Queen in Coleridge’s Play. Torbarina had written his PhD thesis in London in 1930 and the title was The Italian Influence on the Poets of the Ragusan Republic and since that moment he had tried to combine the interest in both English and Croatian literature in his scinetific work. His papers on the manifestation are a result of studying both literatures for a long time. His thesis was a matter of a serious critques written by another Croatian scientist Mihovil Kombol. In wasn’t until after Kombol’s death that Torbarina wrote his best scientific papers because he no longer felt the pressure of Kombol’s critique. Torbarina also criticized Kombol and one of these critiques was presneted at the manifestation. With this article we try to put some light on the way in which Torbarina came to his most important conclusions and that is why we start from his thesis and his disagreement with Kombol, we continue with his bold comparisons of Držić and Shakespeare to come to his papers on the manifestation. The author of this article claims that Torbarina’s scientific work and his presentations at this manifestation represent a very imortant step in the development of Croatian comparative literature and are therefore worth studying.
