Lično i literarno
Šoljan was perhaps the last utopian who believed in literature as a value, as he himself emphasized, and accordingly, he was a truly engaged writer in an artistic and cultural sense, not in a political sense.
Šoljan himself, in his literary criticism and essayistic practice – which, in addition to assessing recent production, also dealt with his own starting points (Assumptions for the Comparative Study of Post-War Croatian Poetry and Its Criticism), based primarily on the theoretical apparatus of Anglo-American new criticism and on an awareness of the Croatian linguistic and literary context – sought to free the literary text from prescriptiveness and explain the system of internal logic, the responsibility on which it rests. This fundamental view will be the one that will guide the editor in the selection of the author's texts. An attempt will be made to offer a new perspective on Šoljan's lesser-known texts, especially those that have not yet been published in independent books, but have remained in literary and professional periodicals.
