Sažetak
Each text has always been rhetorically treated as a memory (conscious or unconscious) of previous texts and discourses, incorporating various elements such as paraphrases, imitations, adaptations, translations, variations and reconstructions. In recent years, Shakespearean criticism has reasserted the value of the dramatic text 'in its context', i.e. in its performativity act whether on stage or screen. This paper investigates three different theatrical versions of Hamlet, Ivo Brešan's Predstava Hamleta u selu Mrduša Donja (The Performance of Hamlet in Central Dalmatia), Slobodan Šnajder's Gamllet and Luko Paljetak's Poslije Hamleta (Hamlet Aftermath), in the Croatian culture. Examining the shifts between times, cultures, peoples and languages, the paper investigates the process of adaptation, raising several interesting questions about the dramatic creation: how Hamlet has been altered ; how the adopted plays relate to contemporary social and political conditions prevailing at the time of their creation ; what kinds of dramatic techniques are being used in the plays. Finally, by comparing the three above- mentioned modern adaptations of Hamlet with the original we should obtain some idea about the spirit of the modern Croatian stage.
