Abstract

Cilj ovoga rada je prikazati novi književni pravac naturalizam te njegov utjecaj na književni
opus Eugena Kumičića. Paralelnim odvijanjem dvaju književnih pravaca u Hrvatskoj,
realizma i naturalizma, nastala je višegodišnja polemika koja je uzdrmala hrvatsku književnu
scenu. Kritika se osvrnula na pokušaj Eugena Kumičića da uvede naturalizam kao dominantan
pravac u hrvatskoj književnosti, koji se prema njihovom mišljenju nije slagao s našim
tradicionalnim stilom pisanja po uzoru na Šenou. U naturalizmu je književnost imala funkciju
prikazivanja događaja onakvih kakvi jesu, sa svim ružnoćama i negativnostima, a književnik
je trebao biti objektivan. Kumičić se uvelike vodio Zolinim idejama koje je nastojao provoditi
u svojim djelima, ponajprije u Gospođi Sabini koja obiluje naturalističkim elementima, što je
prikazano u analizi djela. Provedena je i analiza djela Olga i Lina, njegovog prvog
naturalističkog djela. Kumičić je naturalizam uspio prikazati i u povijesnom romanu Urota
zrinsko-frankopanska, što je također vidljivo u analizi. Naturalistički elementi koji se mogu
uočiti su moć, novac, korupcija, manipulacija, zagrebačko elitno građanstvo, razlika bogatih i
siromašnih, detaljan prikaz gradova, prostora, ali i prikaz smrti plemenitaških obitelji do
najsitnijih detalja. Kumičić piše kritiku društvu, ali i podiže svijest građana o važnosti
slobode. Iako su Kumičića smatrali Zolinim nasljednikom, analizirajući njegova djela može se
reći da ona i dalje odišu šenoinskom tradicijom vođenom realizmom uz elemente Zolinog
naturalizma. Ante Kovačić se odmiče od šenoinske koncepcije pisanja i teži kritici društva.
Naturalistički prikazuje odnos selo-grad i pretvorbu seljaka u građane.

Abstract (english)

The aim of this paper is to show the new literary direction naturalism and its influence on the
literary work of Eugen Kumičić. The parallel development of two literary trends in Croatia,
realism and naturalism, gave rise to a multi-year polemic that shook the Croatian literary
scene. Criticism focused on Eugen Kumičić's attempt to introduce naturalism as a dominant
direction in Croatian literature, which, in their opinion, did not agree with our traditional style
of writing based on the example of Šenoa. In naturalism, literature had the function of
presenting events as they are, with all the ugliness and negativity, and the writer was supposed
to be objective. Kumičić was largely guided by Zola's ideas, which he tried to implement in
his works, primarily in Gospođa Sabina, which abounds in naturalistic elements, which is
shown in the analysis of the work. An analysis of the work Olga and Lina, his first naturalistic
work, was also carried out. Kumičić also managed to show naturalism in the historical novel
Urota Zrinsko-Frankopanska, which is also visible in the analysis. The naturalistic elements
that can be seen are power, money, corruption, manipulation, Zagreb's elite citizenry, the
difference between the rich and the poor, a detailed depiction of cities, spaces, but also the
depiction of the death of noble families down to the smallest detail. Kumičić writes a critique
of society, but also raises citizens' awareness of the importance of freedom. Although
Kumičić was considered Zola's successor, analyzing his works it can be said that they still
exude the Šenoin tradition guided by realism along with elements of Zola's naturalism. Ante
Kovačić moves away from the Shenoin conception of writing and tends towards criticism of
society. Naturalistically depicts the village-town relationship and the transformation of
peasants into citizens.
