Hrvojka Mihanović-Salopek i Gordana Laco: Jadranskih sirena zov, 2024.
 | Na samom početku treba odgovoriti zašto su su priređivačice odlučile sastaviti antologijski izbor iz poezije hrvatskih književnica u Dalmaciji od 18. stoljeća do danas pod nazivom Jadranskih sirena zov. Razlog tome leži u impresivnoj činjenici da upravo na obali Jadrana, u Dubrovniku i Dalmaciji nalazimo u pisanim zapisima prve obrazovane dame kojima je književnost sama po sebi, ali i vlastiti pjesnički izraz nezaobilazni dio osobnosti i intelektualnog identiteta. Izdavač spomenute knjige je Splitski ogranak Društva hrvatskih književnika. Autorice su dr. Hrvojka Mihanović-Salopek (na slici, HAZU, Zagreb) i izv. prof. dr. Gordana Laco (Sveučilište u Splitu). |
