GLASOVI U AVLIJI, TIŠINA U MAGLI : VIŠEGLASJE U ROMANIMA PROKLETA AVLIJA IVE ANDRIĆA I MAGLA I MJESEČINA MEŠE SELIMOVIĆA
VOICES IN THE YARD, SILENCE IN THE MIST : POLYPHONY IN THE NOVELS PROKLETA AVLIJA BY IVO ANDRIĆ AND MAGLA I MJESEČINA BY MEŠA SELIMOVIĆ

Summary/Abstract: In this text I consider the applicability of Mikhail Bakhtin’s theory of polyphony and dialogue on the classical Bosnian literature, specifically on the two well-known novels by Ivo Andrić and Meša Selimović, Prokleta avlija and Magla i mjesečina. The main focus is placed on the analysis of the language and the living word by which Andrić creates his literary idea of the world, presented through the image of Fra Petar into the complex narrative position which enables both narrative complexity and stylistic plurality. Meša Selimović expands the perspectives by which he describes war experience in the novel Magla and mjesečina, writing in a specific language and in a specific manner.
