Odrazi humanističke dramske tradicije u Suzani čistoj Mavra Vetranovića
Reflections of Humanistic Drama Tradition of Mavro Vetranović’s Suzana čista

Summary/Abstract: In the literary-historical study, Mavro Vetranić’ Suzana čista has been viewed as sacra rappresentazione, and only sometimes as related to Biblical drama. In this article it is argued that Vetranović has been strongly influenced by the humanistic religious drama which in its structure and style is based on the Renaissance concept of the antique theatre, while in its theme on biblical-apocrypha motifs. The influence of the humanistic religious drama in Suzana čista can be seen in the following: the classical Aristotelian drama principle (the unity of action and time that is confined to the single revolution of the sun and Aristotelian-Horatius rule of the scene (the drama place is always in exterior), and in the declamatory and rhetoric parts as well as in the thematic embodiment of Suzana čista in the European drama tradition of the XVI century (so called Christian humanism).
