Summary/Abstract: The paper analyses Baraković’s Vila Slovinka (Fairy Slovinka) wherein the poet celebrates Zadar, in spite of the serious disagreement between them. In the context of the story of Pisnik (the Poet), Vila (the Fairy), Poklisar (the Emissary) and other characters we propose to look into the connotations of the journey (traveling, escape, return) and its derivatives thus investigating core and peripheral semantemes on the level of story, character and composition, as well as their relation to the poetics at the beginning of the seventeenth century.
