Sažetak
It is not known today how extensively and in what detail the most distinguished Croatian humanistic writer, M. Marulić (1450 – 1524), wrote about emotions in his lost work Psichiologia, de ratione animae humanae, whose title contains the term “psychology”, which he was the first in history to use. In his epic works (Suzana, Judita, Davidias), Marulić built upon the tradition of the ancient Biblical Vergilian type of epic, and made good use of manifestations of the protagonist’s emotions as an important foothold for his epic narration (descriptive and axiological function). In this research, we did not look for cultural differences between Marulić’s texts and other texts from his and other times, since we concentrated on the centuries-long continuity in understanding and displaying emotions and confirmations of this continuity in Marulić’s texts. We found many conventional conceptual metaphors for so-called basic emotions (anger, fear, sadness, joy) in Marulić’s epic texts as well as for love and hate, which are characteristic for the western world. Most of those emotions are conceptualized as a container or fluid within a container (emotions cannot be understood without the human body). Research of our everyday life has confirmed this, and the same or similar conceptions as today are also found in the middle ages and early modern period. Other conceptual metaphors for emotions are also very interesting, and many of the same connections between two domains (for example: anger and fire or fear and cold) are also present both in Marulić’s old texts and in modern times. A split in emotional concepts and displays of emotion has not been found between Marulić’s Latin and Croatian epics.
