The Krugovi Generation about Matoš
Abstract
Antun Gustav Matoš, central figure of Croatian Modernism became an icon and a legend yet
in life, which, after the artistʼs death, only strengthened and his infl uence on the further shape
of Croatian literature is difficult to deny. On the other hand, he is not the very often mentioned author the literary journal „Krugovi”, and also he is not considered in the first row of
the most influential literary patterns for this generation of writers. However, Antun Gustav
Matoš’s image that emerges from the pages of „Krugovi”, although incomplete and fragmentary, is extremely interesting. Young writers attempted to comprehensively educate their literary model reader, so they drew attention to artists who were the most valuable for the native
literary tradition. Understanding and acknowledging the importance of his achievements and
well-deserved place in the history of Croatian literature, young artists were able, however, to
an analytical and critical approach, in the majority of cases presenting a solid argument, not
limited to duplication of hackneyed slogans.
