"The Poetics of Domestic Internationalism in the Comparative Research into Croatian Narrative Poem, The Balkan Ballad, the Mediterranean Folklore Horizons"

The paper attempts to question the anthropologically contradictor boundaries of the Mediterranean cultural area as formed in the works by the Croatian and international folklore researchers dealing with the oral narrative poem of the twentieth century. Special attention will be drawn to the interpretations of the ballad genre, and an insight into the historical-literary problems will be presented as well. The hypothesis of this paper is that the narration on the Mediterranean in those works sometimes equated the understanding of the wider context of the Balkan ballad area, leading the term "Mediterranean", as employed in those works, to outgrow its concrete geographical proportions.
