A Motif of Jealousy in Begovićs Dramas

Milan Begović afirmirao se kao romanopisac, kritičar, dramatičar i pjesnik. Svojim višegodišnjim radom najviše ostaje zamijećen kao dramatičar. U svojem posljednjem i najplodnijem razdoblju stvaralaštva nastali su uspješni dramski tekstovi Pustolov pred vratima i Bez trećega, u kojima se u ovome završnome radu naglasak stavlja na motiv ljubomore. U radu se prikazuju protagonistice navedenih drama, osviještene mlade žene Giga i Djevojka/Agneza. One nemaju previše sličnosti po karakteru, no nesumnjivo, zajednička im je osobina to što one same, odlučuju o raspletu dramskog sukoba, i o vlastitoj sudbini. Stavljajući naglasak na motiv ljubomore u psihološkoj drami Bez trećega te u tragikomediji Pustolov pred vratima, navodi se i tvrdnja da je Markova ljubomora uzrokovana klasnim razlikama njegove supruge Gige te njenih prosaca. Preispitivajući ljubomoru u objema dramama, na kraju ovog rada iznose se usporedbe kako se motiv ljubomore prikazuje u psihološkoj drami Bez trećega, naspram tragikomedije Pustolov pred vratima.Milan Begović established himself as a novelist, critic, playwright and poet. With his many years of work, he remains most noticed as a playwright. In his last and most prolific period of creativity, successful dramatic texts Adventurer at the Door and Without a Third were created, in which the emphasis in this final work is on the motif of jealousy. The work presents the protagonists of the aforementioned dramas, the enlightened young women Giga and Girl/Agnes. They do not have too many similarities in character, but undoubtedly, they have a common feature in what they themselves decide about the unfolding of the dramatic conflict, and about their own fate. Emphasizing the motif of jealousy in the psychological drama Without a Third and in the tragicomedy The Adventurer at the Door, it is also stated that Marko's jealousy is caused by the class differences between his wife Giga and her suitors. Examining the jealousy in both dramas, at the end of this paper comparisons are made of how the motif of jealousy is portrayed in the psychological drama Without a Third, versus the tragicomedy The Adventurer at the Door
