Sažetak
The somewhat cursory suggestion by Pavao Pavličić that the design of Milan Begović's novel Giga Barićeva owes a lot to James Joyce's Ulysses may have not been taken too seriously in the Croatian criticism, given the obvious differences in the scope of the two writers' ambitions, let alone in their treatment of language. One of the crucial confirmations that Joyce played an important role in Begović's experimental endeavours was for Pavličić the decision made by the Croatian writer to incorporate a play in his novelistic texture, as Joyce did in the “Circe” episode, but nobody ever cared about finer analogies that could be established between the two novelistic worlds. Begović’s play, entitled Without the Third Party, gained a lot of critical attention in its own right, since it was performed even before the publication of the author’s novel. The contention of this contribution is however that the placement of this play within the novelistic frame, as well as the meaning of certain lines in the play, indeed can not be fully understood if one does not retrieve a host of other threads connecting not only the play itself to Joyce’s “Circe”, but also the remaining parts of the two novels. The key to this enterprise proves itself to be one of the lost threads in Freud’s archive: his much neglected third Contribution to the psychology of love, entitled The Taboo of Virginity.
