Hrvatska nad ponorima - Povijesna reportaža o uroti Zrinsko-Frankopanskoj (u povodu 300-godišnjice tragedije)

Virgil Kurbel

An extraordinary historical reportage about the Zrinski-Frankopan Conspiracy, published on the occasion of the 300th anniversary of the execution of Petar Zrinski and Fran Krsto Frankopan, and offers a retrospective look at the events that led to their de

Kurbel presents in detail the political and social circumstances of the time, emphasizing how the Croatian nobles, despite their loyalty, became victims of court intrigues and international interests. The author critically analyzes the relations between the Croatian nobles, the Viennese court, and the Ottoman authorities, pointing to a complex network of political alliances and betrayals.

The book stands out for its accessible writing style, combining historical facts with narrative elements, which allows the reader to understand the emotional and moral dilemmas of the characters more deeply. Kurbel uses rich language and detailed descriptions to bring historical events to life, making them relevant to the modern reader.

Croatia above the Abyss is not only a historical analysis, but also a reflection on identity, loyalty, and the fight for justice. The book encourages reflection on the role of the individual in historical turmoil and the importance of preserving national consciousness.
