Gradonačelnik u secesiji

Gradonačelnik u secesiji

Josip Cvenić

In his latest novel, the author thematizes the time of Vjekoslav Hengl's mayoralty, from 1920 to 1934. It was a turbulent socio-political period, both for the city of Osijek and for the wider geopolitical space to which it belonged.

In a way, political and personal crises in the novel push Hengl forward, into a stubborn representation of city and national interests, only the occasional concession necessary for the functioning of the city, but, perhaps most significantly, also into the economic and infrastructural rise of the city on the Drava. Cvenić's writing, just like the previous novel, was partly inspired by the exhibition set up in the City and University Library in Osijek, today located in the very building where the Hengls lived, called "What Thildy and Vjekoslav Hengl were thinking", giving the author an insight into more documentary and photographic material, just like the one he researched in the State Archives in Osijek, the Museum of Slavonia, but also the sources from which he collected precious pieces of the cultural puzzle from which he drew, transferring historiographical data, personal reflections on time and space, man's role in his own and other people's lives, in the art of words.
