Abstract | Ovaj rad istražuje ulogu duhovnosti u hrvatskoj književnosti i njezinu vezu s kršćanstvom. Kroz književnost se analiziraju duboka duhovna pitanja koja pružaju uvid u kompleksnost ljudskog iskustva. Fokus je ovoga rada na intimnom odnosu hrvatskih pjesnika prema duhovnom te na načinima kako su te duhovne poruke prenosili kroz svoje književno stvaralaštvo. Percepcije duhovnosti su razne, no fokusirali smo se na kršćanski model duhovnosti kroz koji proučavamo pitanja i vrijednosti koje zanimaju čovjeka, poput smisla života, odnosa prema drugima i suočavanja s neizbježnim događajima.
Duhovnost u književnosti prodire u najdublje duhovne sfere, pružajući čovjeku inspiraciju, utjehu, nadu, dublje razumijevanje samoga sebe i svijeta te pomaže da pronađe smisao. Stoga duhovna tematika pomaže čitateljima suočiti se s vlastitim osjećajima i mislima, potiče samosvijest i osobni rast te pomaže u prihvaćanju svijeta i sebe. Duhovnost je u hrvatskoj književnosti odraz dubokog utjecaja kršćanstva na hrvatski narod i njegovu kulturu. Duhovne su teme nadahnule razne hrvatske književnike kao što su Marko Marulić, Silvije Strahimir Kranjčević, Antun Gustav Matoš, Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić, Vladimir Nazor, Antun Branko Šimić i Tin Ujević, a Sveto Pismo bilo je temelj mnogih književnih djela.
Kroz analizu poetskih primjera, naglašava se dubina njihovih duhovnih promišljanja, unutarnjih borbi i potraga za smislom. Također, proučava se razvoj duhovnih faza pjesnika tijekom njihova života, uzimajući u obzir utjecaj okoline, društva, bolesti i teških životnih iskušenja koja su iskusili. Predstavljeni su književnici ostavili vrijedna djela koja svjedoče o njihovom dubokom promišljanju o duhovnom, vjeri i smislu života, a njihova ostavština pruža uvid u duhovnu dimenziju hrvatskog naroda i vrijednosti kršćanske tradicije. |
