Popis: | Ivan Dragojević (1934. – 1999.) bio je oštar kritičar komunističkoga totalitarnoga sustava i svojim je književnim opusom djelovao izvan dominantnih političkih struja. Njegov roman Smrt gospodina Medara objavljen je godine 1971. Pripovijest progovara o kraju pedesetih godina XX. stoljeća i prikazuje događaje u Vranjicu kraj Splita. Glavni je lik predratni načelnik Medar koji postaje žrtvom skupine ljudi koja ga hoće usmrtiti. Značajan se uzrok progona krije u različitim političkim konceptima žrtve i napadača. U ovome se radu određuju modusi fikcionalne književnosti, prema N. Fryeu, kojima pripada spomenuto djelo. Biblijski se intertekst posebno uočava na razini likova te u ustroju žrtvenoga jarca kako ga je postavio R. Girard. Također se ispituje simbol smrti što predstavlja važan biblizam. Autor romana naglašava nedužnost svojih likova, čime želi ukazati na stvarne ljude koji su nepravedno stradali u okrutnome režimu, stoga se redovito upućuje na društvenopolitičke okolnosti onoga doba. Tumači se i nazočnost televizijske serije Naše malo misto koja je poslužila I. Dragojeviću kao jedan od izvora pri pisanju romana. Ivan Dragojević (1934 - 1999) was a critic of the former communist totalitarian system and his literary work did not correspond to the dominant political structures. His novel The Death of Mr. Medar was published in 1971. The narrative speaks about the end of the 1950s and shows the events in Vranjic near Split. The main character is the pre-war mayor Medar who becomes a victim of a group of people who want to kill him. A significant cause of persecution lies in various political ideas. The modes of fiction according to Northrop Frye, to which the mentioned novel belongs, are determined. The biblical intertext is especially noticeable at the level of the characters and in the structure of R. Girard’s scapegoat mechanism. The symbol of death, which represents important biblism, is also examined. The author of the novel emphasizes the innocence of his characters, by which he wants to point out the real people who were unjustly killed in the cruel regime, so he regularly refers to the socio-political circumstances of that time. The presence of the television series Our Small Town, which served I. Dragojević as one of the sources in writing the novel, is also interpreted. |
