Summary: August Šenoa is the most significant personage in the 19th
century Croatian literature. None of previous of Šenoa's collected works,
and there were quite of them, were really complete because his writing in
Czech language (in Prague) and in German (in Vienna) has been completely
uninvestigated till now, and so it is missing in all those editions. The
entire Šenoa's creation will be elaborated critically, linguistically and
textually and as such offered to Croatian cultural public for the first
time. The edition will partly be bilingual, as from Šenoa's supplements,
primarily written in Czech and German respectively, the original copy and
the Croatian translation will be presented.
Keywords: August Šenoa, Croatian Literature, History of Croatian Literature, Realism, Romanticism, Poetry, Novel, Story, Criticism, Correspondency, Biographies, Bibliographies, bilingualism
Research goals: The goal of this research is that the Croatian
cultural public and Croatian literature science, especially its historical
part, get the final, complete and credible collected works by this classic
who belongs to the newer Croatian literature, because none of the previous
editions which pretended to be collected works were not, and the
credibility of the texts in them was often questionable, because of the
inadequate editor's principles which were applied under political pressure
upon Croatian language. Other information about the project.
