Two of Krleža's Poetical/Ethical Subversions in Bygone Days

The first part of the article gives a brief review of Krleža's historical and anthropological contextualisation in Bygone Days in which he reveals the cynical power strategy of Đuro Basariček and Josip Šilović's human(itarian)ism and the kynical Odysseiad of Croatian soldiers and the Penelopeiad of Croatian war widows from World War I. The second part of the article deals with Krleža's subversive treatment of the (re)mythologisation of the Kosovo myth as the Yugo-Mythus which also served as a mytho-poetic matrix of the artistic discourse of Croatian Yugoslav integrations.
