The Canadian Short Story in Croatia: Anthologies and Beyond

The article gives an overview of the representation of Anglophone Canadian short stories in Croatia with special focus on the two anthologies published so far in the Croatian language: Antologija kanadske pripovjetke (An Anthology of Canadian short stories, 1991) edited by Branko Gorjup and Ljiljanka Lovrinčević, and Život na sjeveru: antologija kanadske kratke priče (Northern Exposure: An Anthology of Canadian Short Stories) edited by Antonija Primorac and published in 2009. Whereas the anthology edited by Gorjup and Lovrenčić introduced to the Croatian (but also, due to an interesting turn of events, the Slovak) readership the Canadian authors of the early and mid twentieth century, the latter one edited by Primorac focused on the last two decades of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty first century and the writing that was in great deal marked by multiculturalism. Juxtaposed, the two anthologies give a complex overview of the Canadian literary landscape and as such serve as an introduction to a number of Canadian authors still to be translated into the Croatian language.
