Mehmed-beg Kapetanović Ljubušak – od utemeljenja moderne kulture Bošnjaka do začetka moderne bošnjačke književnohistoriografske svijesti
MEHMED-BEY KAPETANOVIĆ LJUBUŠAK – FROM THE FOUNDING OF MODERN BOSNIAK CULTURE TO THE CONCEIVING OF MODERN BOSNIAK LITERARY HISTORIOGRAPHY

Summary/Abstract: The end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries are the founding period of the entire modern Bosnian-Herzegovinian and thus Modern Bosniak culture. This is also the time when, in the particular cultural circumstances after the Austro-Hungarian occupation of the Ottoman Bosnia, modern Bosniak literature was founded. But concurrently, the late 19th and early 20th centuries are also the founding period of, among other novelties, modern Bosniak literary historiographic consciousness as well as modern Bosniak literary historiography, or modern history of Bosniak literature as a discipline in literary studies. In this connection, as in the case of modern Bosniak literature, the emergence and development of modern Bosniak literary historiographic consciousness and literary historiography is a direct effect of modern European tendencies in the Bosniak cultural context, but also a phenomenon that is closely related with the constitution of modern literary practice among Bosniaks. In this regard, the establishment of modern Bosniak literature, at the level of literary art, and the establishment of modern Bosniak literary historiographic consciousness and literary historiography, at the level of literary studies, are phenomena that have particular relations to each other, where modern Bosniak literature and modern Bosniak literary historiography show a number of developmental reciprocity and mutual dependence aspects. The thesis can be confirmed by the very fact that the modern Bosniak literature and modern Bosniak literary historiographic consciousness have, de facto, the same founding fathers, and these are the two certainly cardinal figures in overall Bosniak cultural life in the late 19th and early 20th centuries – Dr. Safvet-bey Bašagić (1870–1934), but also Mehmed-bey Kapetanović Ljubušak (1839–1902), who has not been brought closer to this, with the development of Bosniak literary historiography associated context in previous research of the Bosniak literary past.
