sine ira et studio: fehim bajraktarevic and bosniak literary-historical practice

In the widest sense the paper deals with Fehim Bajraktarević’s work which is dedicated to Bosniak literary. His literary-critical studies about Safvet-beg Bašagić and mevlud have been specially treated. When it comes to Safvet-beg Bašagić, Bajraktarević tries to determine, by means of a comparative analysis (theory of influence/loan), the influence of German Romantics on Bašagić, especially on his cycle the poem Ašiklije from the poetry collection Trofanda iz hercegovačke dubrave and the poem Hafiz from the poetic collection Misli i čuvstva. On the other side, related to the study of mevlud special attention was given to the Bajraktarević – Nametak controversy regarding Gašević’s Mevlud, as well as other literary-critical issues concerning this genre. We have considered his critical reviews of some important publications, monographs and bibliographies related to Bosnia. These are the bibliographies of Osman A. Sokolović and Alija Nametak, Abdulah Škaljić’s dictionaries, as well as studies written by foreigners about alhamijado literature and the scientific achievements of Turkology in Bosnia. Finally, this paper also treats one Bajraktarević’s text on the contribution of Bosniak literates to the development of total literature on Oriental languages.
