Abstract

The interpretation of Bosanska vila from the perspective of feminist periodical studies aims to explain the concept of female authorship in this magazine. The paper privileges the “Young Bosnian” period of the magazine (1908-1914) to explore the connections between the political-aesthetic agenda of the revolutionary South Slavic avant-garde and feminist discourse and women’s artistic and social activism. The analysis of female authorship in the magazine, particularly the program texts of Zdenka Marjanović, Isidora Sekulić, and Nadežda Petrović as well as translation activities, indicates that female authors actively participated in the discursive shaping of the first South Slavic avant-garde. Finally, placing Bosanska Vila and the magazine’s female collaborators in the broader context shows that the feminist scene of the time was also one of the points of a polycentric, avant-garde, revolutionary network.
