Abstract

One of the most important journals of Croatian Romanticism in the period of 1842-1853 was the Kolo. Due to the policy of redaction a large scope was offered to represent the literature of the world. The works of Byron, Lamartine, Puškin, Mickiewicz, Karol Jaromir Erben, Jan Kollár, Pavel Jozef Šafarik and of many other writers were published in Croatian translation on the pages of this journal. Comprehensive studies about the Russian, Czech and Slovak literature could also be read here. Stanko Vraz, for example, did his best to popularize the Polish literature. He wrote his own sonnets “r la manicre de Mickiewicz” and, consequently, thought it important to write about Mickiewicz's works. He published his own translation of the so called “second part” (Kowno-Wilna) of Dziady introducing it with a long study. Two more comprehensive studies were published about the Polish literature. The first was Dubrovskij's study, Ruska i poljska literatura (1842-1843) which gave a survey about the literature of Warsaw and Lithuania. He thinks the last more important as the writers in Warsaw were rather isolated, in Wilna, however, the favourable influence of the Russian literature made itself felt. The literature of Warsaw was represented by Maciejowski and Wojcicki, and the literature of the Lithuanian lands by Kraszewski and Chodzko. The second comprehensive study was published in 1847 by Vladislav Zap with the title Kratak pregled litarature poljske (previously published in Czech). This study gives a detailed picture of the Polish literature from the Middle Ages up to the beginning of 1840. The presentation of the contemporary Polish literature is especially good. In my study I intend to analyse the process of this interpretation.
