HOMELAND IN LITERARY TEMPLATES FOR STAGING AS PUPPET SHOWS

Teodora Vigato

Sažetak

On the one hand a homeland is a natural fact, but on the other hand it is not something finished and given but a political task. Only in freedom can we raise and create our homeland. The author is choosing two literary templates which thematize a homeland and were staged as puppet show in the Zadar Puppet Theatre: Pioneer Grujo from Vladimir Nazor (1952.) and Towning from Tahir Mujičić (1986.). Those puppet shows have different poetics and are born in different contexts of Zadar Puppet Theatre but also in different political circumstances of Croatia as a whole. Puppet show Pionir Grujo was on the repertoire of Zadar Puppet Theatre already in its first active year. It appeared in the age of socialist realism so, to avoid literary clichés of that time, Nazor placed the story between mythology and reality. Actual theme, the creation of homeland, is concretized in the construction of railway Šamac-Sarajevo. Puppet show Towning appeared when a puppetry in Zadar had already been established and ready for unusual stories and staging. It was in the age of enlightened or decadent socialism when Tahir Mujičić was compelled to get use of a fairytale to represent its vision of homeland.
