The Otherness in the Novel A Drop of Spanish Blood by Miloš Crnjanski
Abstract
The paper presents an imagological reading of an insufficiently studied classic of Serbian literature, the novel A Drop of Spanish Blood, in relation to the theory of the Apollonian and Dionysian principles elaborated in Camille Paglia’s Sexual Personae. The analysis of the archetypal and intertextual background of the text, as well as the images of Spain and Germany and their representatives – characters – elucidates the nature and function of the stereotypes which they carry within the novelistic expression of Miloš Crnjanski.
