Marko Marulic...
by coceng
Just a money note where you can see the drawing of Marko Marulic (1450-1524), the writer and humanist,
the Father of Croatian literatures.
Prior to the 16th century, Croatian literary works were exclusively religious and devotional in character, by the beginning of the 16th century we come across the first secular work of literature, the Istoria svete udovice Judit (The History of the Holy Widow Judith), written by Marko Marulic, a poet and scholar from Split. This first Croatian epic, which tells the biblical story from the book of Judith and the slaying of Holofernes, was published in five editions between 1521 and 1627. The first edition was printed by Fontaneto de Monteserrato in Venice, where the later editions were also published.
