L’insurrezione erzegovese. La Slavia – Il mondo di Bonaventura Vidovich tra letteratura, mitologia e storia

Abstract

The contribution analyses the social-allegoric drama L’insurrezione erzegovese. La Slavia – Il mondo of Bonaventura Vidovich, published in Livorno in 1875. It is a period of the particular interest for the Bosnian social and political context, which can be seen also in Fichert’s tragedy Bielka di Bosnia. The contribution tries to highlight how Vidovich uses literature, mythology and history to build a cultural imaginary that erases all limits between nations and peoples such as the Italians, the Slavs and the Turks in a complex historical context.
