The Origin of Sin and Pleasure. Jesuit Aetiological Accounts on Tobacco, Coffee and Chocolate
The paper presents three Latin metamorphoses by the Croatian baroque poet, Jesuit Ignjat Đurđević (Dubrovnik, 1675 – Dubrovnik, 1737). They appear in his collection of Latin verses Poetici lusus varii (1703-1708) and present three aetiological myths on the origin of tobacco (De herba tabacco metamorphosis), coffee (Caphei Thracis in plantam sui nominis metamorphosis) and chocolate (De origine cocolatis ... metamorphosis). We shall, on one hand, expose the contents and the structure of the three metamorphoses and compare their mythemes to those from similar Ovidian metamorphoses. On the other hand, and since Đurđević wrote the three poems as a young man, we shall put the poems in the context of Jesuit education system (especially the training in Latin poetry writing). Inventing aetiological myths on the New World and other non-European products (tea, gunpowder), was not uncommon in the Jesuit, especially Latin American didactic poetry, and that is also one of the contexts in which Đurđević's metamorphoses need to be put into.
