Summary

Bruno Schulz: Republika mašte

After "Dućana cimetne boje" (2005) and "Sanatorija pod klepsidrom" (2007), "Republika mašte" is the third and last book in which the publisher Litteris presents Croatian translations of the literary work of the famous Polish-Jewish storyteller Bruno Schulz (1892 - 1942), one of the greatest European writers of the 20th century. However, unlike the previous, more or less complete collections of short stories, published for the first time in book editions during the author's lifetime, this book is made up of individual texts published only in magazines and of texts from the margins of Schulz's private legacy - his letters. The guiding motif of this book remains Literature in its various dimensions - whether it is about Schulz's own work (these are translations of four of Schulz's short stories published in 1936 and 1938: Jesen, Republika mašte, Kometa and Domovina - although they are not an integral part of his two collections - both thematically and stylistically belong to the discourse conceived in The Cinnamon Shops), about the work of others in which he himself is reflected, or about literature which is integrated into the medium of the closest encounter with the other - in letters. Dalibor Blažina, from the foreword Bruno Schulz (1892-1942) Polish writer of Jewish origin and professor of drawing, the son of humble merchants, ended his days by being shot by a Nazi in the street. The success of "Dućana cimetne boje" was confirmed by Schulz's second collection of short stories, "Sanatorij pod klepsidrom" (Sanatorium pod klepsydr, 1937), with which he significantly influenced numerous world writers (let's mention only Danilo Kiš), as well as the generation of Croatian "Borgesians".
