Summary/Abstract: A new reading of the contemporary Andrić's Prokleta avlija (1954) will be achieved through an intertextual vision – in relation to Prokleta ergela (2009), a novel by the Croatian and Bosnian writer Feđa Šehović. Intertextual forces will not be approached in the sense of unidirectionality, that is, the trap of influence, but in the context of the transposition of meaning, the articulation of (always) new meanings (Kristeva), and thus the mode of the constitution of the meaning of the text (Lachmann). The paper will seek to outline in a juxtaposition the way Andrić's Prokleta avlija and Šehović's Prokleta ergela function in a heterotopia / other sites / counter-sites model (Foucault).
