Dundo Maroje / Skup / Novela od Stanca

Marin Držić

Dundo Maroje and Novela od Stanac are masterpieces of the greatest Croatian renaissance comedy writer - Marin Držić. At the same time, these are his most famous comedies, which belong to the very top of Croatian Renaissance literature.

In his works, Držić creatively and originally reached for tested classical and modern patterns: he inhabited Plautian comedies with living, recognizable, and psychologically, linguistically, ethnically, and socially determined characters and situations, by directly actualizing local circumstances. He transferred the great experiences gained in life and from books, at home and in the world, to our soil, with extraordinary inspiration he gave them the features of our environment and adapted them to the needs of his audience.

Although Držić tried his hand at various dramatic genres, we remember him primarily as a comedy writer. Eleven texts remained behind him: three pastoral dramas (Tirena, The story of how the goddess Venus is ensnared in the love of the beautiful Adon, put into a comedy, Grižula/Plakir/), six erudite comedies (Dundo Maroje, Džuho Kerpeta, Skup, Tripče de Utolče/Mande /, Arkulin, Pjerin), one comedy (Novela od Stanac) and one tragedy (Hecuba), otherwise an adaptation of the tragedy Ecuba, singing the works of Euripides. The comedy Pomet - performed in 1548 - has been lost, and some of its content has been preserved in the prologues and in the text itself by Dundo Maroj.
