Pucićeva pjesnička nastojanja

U radu se razmatra izdvojeni dio pjesničkoga opusa dubrovačkoga vlastelina i preporoditelja Orsata Meda Pucića koji je svojim predanim radom na polju književnosti, povijesti i jezika obogatio dubrovačku i hrvatsku književnu povijest i historiografiju 19. stoljeća. Posebna pozornost usmjerena je na Pucićeve pjesme posvećene Janu Kollaru, Adamu Mickiewiczu, Danteu Alighieriu i banu Josipu Jelačiću, koje su svojim nastankom vezane uz određeni društveni i povijesni kontekst.Despite historiographical and literary-historical indicators that the microcosm of 19th-century Dubrovnik was an era of twilight and slow demise after the fall of the Republic, Dubrovnik and its representatives with their spiritual content, as well as cultural and literary endeavours, managed to provide Dubrovnik with a unique place in Croatian history and literature and enable the necessary continuity of reception and provision. The prolific activities of Medo Pucić were definitely an important contribution to such a contemporary reception of 19th-century Dubrovnik
