The relation of psychology and poetry in Albert Bazala’s Psychology in Croatian Artistic Poetry

Albert Bazala’s book Psihologija u hrvatskom umjetnom pjesništvu (Psychology in Croatian Artistic Poetry) illustrates how during the early 20th century a tendency to use various disciplines in an integrated way in the teaching process was present in the Croatian educational system. This work, intended for students, is a pioneering venture in the field of psychological literature, which in its content combines poetry and psychology as a scientific discipline. Furthermore, an attempt will be made to delineate how poetry and psychology are interrelated through Bazala’s interpretation of delusions and projections. Bazala’s interpretation of delusions, projections, illusions and hallucinations is exemplified in the poems of Ante Tresić Pavičić, Jovan Hranilović, Luka Botić, Franjo Marković and Gjuro Arnold. It is nearly impossible not to notice the strong influence of Gjuro Arnold and his textbook Psihologija za srednja učilišta (Psychology for Secondary Schools) in Bazala’s work.
