Abstract

U ovom radu analiziraju se i uspoređuju romani Doktor Glas Hjalmara Söderberga te Glad Knuta Hamsuna pri čemu se naglasak stavlja na primjenu motiva kronotopa i flâneura u navedenim djelima. Kronotop je pojam koji je u književnost uveo Mihail Bahtin, a odnosi se na prostorno-vremensku povezanost pripovjednog teksta. Flâneur je pojam koji predstavlja dokonog šetača gradskih prostora, a koji je zahvaljujući Walteru Benjaminu pronašao svoju primjenu u teoriji književnosti. Društvene promjene na prijelazu stoljeća odrazile su se na stanje u književnosti pa se u to vrijeme javlja tendencija upotrebe flanerizma. Ova djela, iako po mnogočemu različita, sadržavaju i sličnosti koje se u prvom planu iskazuju u važnosti prostorno-vremenske određenosti teksta, glavnog lika kao flâneura, autodijegetskog pripovjedača, unutarnje fiksne fokalizacije, izbora radikalnih tema i s time blisko povezane društvene kritike, ali i inovativnosti zbog koje su ovi autori ostavili neizbrisiv trag u književnosti, kao i kulturnom životu općenito.

Abstract (english)

This paper analyses and compares novels Doctor Glas by Hjalmar Söderberg and Hunger by Knut Hamsun emphasising the application of chronotope and flâneur motifs in these works. Chronotope is a term introduced into literature by Mikhail Bakhtin, which refers to the spatial-temporal connection of the narrative text. Flâneur is a term that represents the aimless city walker, and who, thanks to Walter Benjamin, found his application in the literary theory. Social changes at the turn of the century reflected on the literature and at that time the tendency to use flânerie began. These works, although in many ways different, contain similarities that are at the forefront expressed in the importance of the spatial-time specificity of the text, the main character as flâneur, autodigetic narrator, internal fixed focalization, radical themes and closely related social criticism but also innovations that have left an indelible mark on literature as well as cultural life in general.
