Abstract

The modernist literature of the former Yugoslavia inherited the legacy of realist literature in terms of "chronotope" and "subject," while also differing drastically from the legacy, conceptually speaking. This is most obviously revealed in psychological literary discourse about the low-ranking subjects of traditional society, particularly women. A typical example is the traditionally patriarchal space of the house (kuća), which typically functions as a negative motif of chronotope in the discourse about women and family by modernist writers of the former Yugoslavia.
