In this valuable book by Milan Vlajčić, the cinematic nineties receive their first systematic evaluation. Much more than a mere sum of accumulated texts, it is a corpus with a more than elaborated and profiled concept.
The book provides a thorough chronicle and analysis of centuries-old theatrical contacts between two cities – Osijek and Pécs – which historically shared the cultural space of the Pannonian Plain, especially during the period of the Habsburg Monarchy.
A fictionalized biography of the famous Dutch painter Rembrandt van Rijn. The author uses the fictional character of Dr. Joannis van Loon, Rembrandt's alleged friend and personal physician, to tell the artist's life story through his "diaries."
The book presents Švajcer's entire bibliography and a selection of his published and unpublished texts (e.g. texts on Krunoslav Kern; Branko Kovačević; Osijek painting between the two wars; Antun Babić as a graphic artist, etc.).
Through these "miniatures", the author brings the reader closer to the world of different traditions, emphasizing the beauty, mysticism, and complexity of Islamic culture, but also universal themes such as transience, identity, and the meaning of life.
