Abstract

Mitologiju možemo definirati kao riznicu narodnoga mišljenja i vjerovanja. Ona je iznimno važna za proučavanje psihe jednoga naroda. Malobrojne vjerodostojne ostatke hrvatske mitologije uspjela je povezati i umjetnički oblikovati književnica Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić. Njena djela, prožeta mitološkim elementima, imaju dvostruko izvorište – literatura slavenske mitologije i narodno usmeno stvaralaštvo. Istraživanjem i proučavanjem strane i domaće literature, osobito djela istraživača Aleksandra Nikolajeviča Afanasjeva, Antona Tkanya i Natka Nodila, naša književnica preuzima mitološke elemente poput pojmova, likova, sažetaka prepričanih usmenih tekstova, izraza te ih nadopunjava i oblikuje unutar svojih originalnih priča. Većina mitoloških elemenata, koji bi bili pogodni kao motivacija likovnome stvaralaštvu kod djece, predstavljeni su i opisani u ovome radu.
Mitologija i likovna umjetnost oduvijek su u međusobnoj interakciji. Jedan je od razloga za to i slikovit način tumačenja mitoloških elemenata. Mnogi proučavatelji djela Ivane Brlić-Mažuranić zapazili su i u njenim djelima poetično vizualiziranje pojava iz života. Upravo su zbog te slikovnosti priče Ivane Brlić-Mažuranić prikladne kao poticaj za likovno izražavanje.
Sloboda pri stvaranju likovnih radova kod djece često je ometana konstantnim nametanjem šablona od odraslih i medija. Preuzimanje ideja, bez razmišljanja kako riješiti likovni problem, koči djetetov stvaralački čin. Učitelj ima osobito važnu ulogu u suprotstavljanju šablonskim prikazima te u poticanju razvitka mašte. Postoje razni načini kako učitelji mogu ohrabrivati kreativni pristup kod djece. Elementi iz mitologije Ivane Brlić-Mažuranić iz više su razloga pogodni za motive tj. poticaje u nastavi likovne kulture, a naročito korelacijom predmeta Likovna kultura i predmeta Hrvatski jezik. Jedan je od tih razloga upravo omogućavanje potpune slobode tijekom likovnoga stvaralaštva bez mogućnosti da se učenik osloni na već gotove vizualizacije.
U sklopu praktičnoga dijela diplomskoga rada održane su tri radionice gdje su učenici različitim likovnim tehnikama ilustrirali zadane mitološke elemente: djeda Neumijka, morsku neman i prikaz vila koje silaze s oblaka na livadu. Na posljednjim stranicama diplomskog rada nalaze se nastavne pripreme, učenički radovi te njihova analiza.

Abstract (english)

We can define mythology as a treasury of folk thoughts and beliefs. It is essential for studying people's beliefs. Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić managed to connect and literary shape a small number of trustworthy remains of Croatian mythology. Her work, inspired by mythological elements are inspired from two sources - works of Slavic mythology and folk tales. Exploring and studying domestic and foreign literature, especially works of Afanasjev, Tkany and Natko Nodilo, our artist takes mythological elements like terms, characters, abstracts of short folk tales and expressions and adds on top of them within her original stories. Most mythological elements fit for inspiring young children's artistic creations are presented and described in this paper.
Mythology and fine arts are in constant interaction. One reason is the picturesque way of interpreting mythological elements. Many researchers of works from Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić have noticed poetic visualisations of everyday occurrences. That same imagery makes Ivana Brlić- Mažuranić's works an inspiration for various artistic expressions.
Children are often denied artistic freedom due to the constant imposing of various patterns, either from grown-ups or media. Taking ideas without thinking about possible solutions to a creative problem halts a child's creativity. A teacher has a vital role in countering stencilling and inspiring childrens imagination. There are various ways a teacher can encourage a creative approach in children. Elements of the mythology of Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić are an excellent motif and inspiration in art class for various reasons, mainly due to the correlation between the art class and the Croatian language class. One of these reasons is precisely enabling total artistic freedom without the possibility of leaning on existing visualisations.
Within the practical segment of this paper, three distinct workshops have been held where children had to use different artistic techniques to illustrate the given mythological elements: Grandpa that doesn't wash his face (hrv. Djed Neumijka), sea monster (hrv. Morska Neman), faries coming down from clouds to a meadow. Last pages of this paper show class preparations, childrens works and analysis of those works.
