Sažetak
Famous writer Ivana Brlić Mažuranić (1874-1938), known also as “Croatian Andersen”, wrote a collection of fairy-tales Croatian Tales of Long Ago (Priče iz davnine), the most published and translated Croatian prose collection. By creating an original fairy-tale world based on Croatian oral literature and the rich Slavic mythology, Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić has produced a heterogeneous and highly stimulating work which continues to attract the interest of readers, critics and artists. Highly valued by both national and foreign critics, she had the ability to identify with the psyche of the child, to understand the purity and naivety of the world of children. Fairy tales included in the collection Croatian Tales of Long Ago have been explored in different forms and adapted into different media. The collection has earned Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić as many as four nominations for the world’s highest literary honour: the Nobel Prize in Literature. In the context of Croatian cultural history, she is also remembered as the first female member of the Croatian Academy of Sciences and Arts. This year we celebrate 100 years of the first publication of Croatian Tales of Long Ago.
