The main purpose of the thesis is to analyze the phenomenon of conflicts between urbanism and ruralism, which reveals the development of early Chinese society and social collective consciousness, thereby comprehending the social meanings of Congwen Shen¡¦s novels; to explore the connection of themes of conflicts between urbanism and ruralism, tradition of the May Fourth realistic literature, and the early local realistic literature, and to interpret the literary meanings of Shen¡¦s novels. Besides the introduction and conclusion, the text is divided into three parts: Chapter Two is the ordination of sociologists¡¦ research on the transition of Chinese society from Ching dynasty to 1949, to serve as the frame of reference of Shen¡¦s novels for later-on discussion. Chapter Three is to apply Lucien Goldmann¡¦s literary critique to analyzing the binary opposite structure in Shen¡¦s novels and homologies of Chinese economy, politics, cultural transition, and collective consciousness. Chapter Four is to analyze the theme of urban and rural conflicts in Shen¡¦s novels, which may inherit from the tradition of realistic literature, to compare similarity and dissimilarity of the important local realistic literature in 1920s or 1930s, and to explore how the author and the social collective keep objectivism and subjectivism in balance, thereby evaluating the status of Shen¡¦s novels in early Chinese literature.

<p>U ovoj disertaciji istražuju se mnogobrojni oblici utopije u<br />nekolikim, prvenstveno u književnim segmentima složenog i obimnog<br />opusa H. Dž. Velsa, kao i u nekolikim, prvenstveno u književnim<br />segmentima ne tako obimnog, ali takođe složenog opusa G. Kosteljnika.<br />Studiju čine trinaest poglavlja.<br />Prvo je uvodno, te se u njemu najpre obja&scaron;njavaju predmet, cilj i<br />metodologija istraživanja, a potom se razmatraju najfrekventniji pojmovi:<br />op&scaron;ta i naučna fantastika, i, iznad svih, glavni pojam, utopija. Osvetljavaju<br />se i njena geneza, i njene karakteristike, i njene funkcije.<br />U drugom poglavlju su najpre izloženi faktori nastajanja, postojanja i<br />nestajanja utopija, a u nastavku je prezentirana iscrpna tipologija utopija.<br />U trećem i četvrtom poglavlju govori se o formiranju stvaralačkih<br />ličnosti H. Dž. Velsa i G. Kosteljnika.<br />Narednih &scaron;est poglavlja ispunjeno je odeljcima putem kojih se<br />osvetljava romaneskno, pripovedačko i diskurzivno (esejističko,<br />sociolo&scaron;ko, politikolo&scaron;ko, naučnopopularno i publicističko) stvarala&scaron;tvo H.<br />Dž. Velsa, kao i poetsko, pripovedačko, dramsko i diskurzivno (esejističko,<br />teolo&scaron;ko, književnokritičko, lingvističko i publicističko) stvarala&scaron;tvo G.<br />Kosteljnika.<br />Jedanaesto poglavlje je zaključno. U njemu je jo&scaron; jednom razmotren<br />značaj utopije uop&scaron;te, a naročito u delu dvojice protagonista ove disertacije:<br />H. Dž. Velsa i G. Kosteljnika.</p> / <p>This thesis researches numerous forms of utopia in several, primarily<br />literary segments from complex and comprehensive opus of H. G. Wells, as<br />well as in several, primarily literary segments of not so comprehensive, but<br />also complex opus of G. Kosteljnik.<br />The study consists of thirteen chapters.<br />The first chapter is introductory, where the subject matter, aim and<br />methodology of the research are explained, and the most frequent notions<br />are considered: general fantasy and science fiction, and, above all, the main<br />notion, utopia. Some light is being shed on its genesis, its characteristics<br />and its functions.<br />In the second chapter, the factors for its emergence, existence and<br />disappearance are presented, along with exhaustive typology of utopias.<br />The tird and fourth chapter deals with formation of creative<br />personalities of H. G. Wells and G. Kosteljnik.<br />The following six chapters include the extracts through which I<br />throw light on romanesque, narrative and discursive (essayistic,<br />sociological, politicological, popular scientific and publicistic) artistic<br />creation of H. G. Wells, as well as poetic, narrative, dramatic and<br />discursive (essayistic, theological, literary-critical, linguistic and<br />publicistic) artistic creation of G. Kosteljnik.<br />The eleventh chapter is conclusion. It once again considers the<br />notion of utopia in general, and particularly in the works of the two<br />protagonists of this thesis: H. G. Wells and G. Kosteljnik.</p>
