There will be interpretations of the novels in which Mato£¿ creates characters according to Fran Ma£¿urani£¿: Pereci, fri£¿ki pereci..., Put u Ni£¿ta, Bura u ti£¿ini, in the context of Mato£¿¡¯s contribution to the return of this writer to the mainstream of Croatian literature after a long silence. Some characters will be analyzed: Orlovi£¿ and Marjanovi£¿ in Putu u Ni£¿ta where Mato£¿ in portraying the figures highlights the significance of Ma£¿urani£¿¡¯s work in Croatian literature, especially the influence on the prose in Croatian modernity, later emphasized by Croatian literary critics after the second edition of Li£¿£¿e (Li£¿£¿e i druga djela,, 1916). In this context, the criticisms and texts which used Mato£¿¡¯s novels for the reconstruction of Ma£¿urani£¿¡¯s life (Wenzelides and Bene£¿i£¿ et al.) will be highlighted. On the other hand, some motivational incentives of Ma£¿urani£¿ - Mato£¿ will be emphasized (eg. the dream motif in Ma£¿urani£¿¡¯s novel I o grm i o trn in the first Mato£¿¡¯s publishing of Mo£¿ savjesti, and the elaboration of the theme of ¡°old maid¡± in Ma£¿urani£¿ and Mato£¿¡¯s feuilleton Usi£¿elica and others) %K Mato£¿ %K Fran Ma£¿urani£¿ %K the characters of Mato£¿¡¯s novelist %K motivational incentives %U https://hrcak.srce.hr/index.php?show=clanak&id_clanak_jezik=288666
