Summary
Luka Brajnović: Moonlight in the Alley: Selected Poems
A new book was published in the Small Library on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Luka Brajnović's birth, "Moonlight in the Alley" (selected poems). The author is, next to B. Maruna and V. Vid, the best and most prominent Croatian emigrant poet. Since 1945, he has lived in exile, first in Italy and Spain, where he completed his studies and where he worked as a professor of literature and ethics at the University of Navarre until his retirement. Little known to literary experts, the coming anniversary is an opportunity to speak historiographically and critically about the work of this significant Croatian poet. Brajnović started writing early. He wrote poems, stories and novels. During his studies, he was the editor-in-chief of the magazine Luči (1940-1943), and from 1941 to 1944 he was the editor of one of the most widespread Croatian Catholic weekly Hrvatske straže.] In emigration he collaborated in numerous Croatian newspapers and magazines (Danica, Glas St. Anthony, Hrvatska revija and others). In Madrid, he started and edited until 1955 the review for spiritual-scientific issues Osoba i duh (together with Hijacint Eterović) and Knjižnica Osvit, which, among others, published a book of poems by Lucija Kordić, a book of essays Vinko Krišković and the Holy Scriptures of the New and Old Testament in translation Ivan Ev. Šarić, and in the revision by Brajnović himself. He also collaborated in various Spanish newspapers and magazines and was the author of numerous manuals for Spanish students. In Croatian newspapers, he also signed pseudonyms: Nehaj Trifunović, Ante Borak, Tugomir Lab, Bić, etc. Brajnović's poetic work is characterized by Catholic didacticism, meditativeness and refined, dosed pathos in expression, and he writes in connected verse and in regular rhymes.
