Summary
Ivan Gundulić: Osman
with chants XIV. and XV. Ivan Mažuranić
original art nouveau binding
Osman is an epic written by Ivan Gundulić, one of the most significant poetic names of older Croatian literature. Gundulić spent his entire life in Dubrovnik, where he lived a quiet and peaceful life. He started writing at a young age, and at the age of 30 he was already a famous poet. Gundulić was nicknamed Mačica, and the meaning of that nickname is mačkica precisely because he lived quietly and very secluded.
At the end of the 16th and the beginning of the 17th century, literary life in Dubrovnik was free and economically very well developed, dynamic and unusually alive. In that city-state, beautiful literature was nurtured for more than a century, inheriting literary types, forms and stylistic inspirations from Italy, a neighboring country that was a leading country in literature and culture in Europe at the time.
