Pijadego) AB - To Defeat an Epidemic, or on Decadence in Serbian Literature (the Case of David S. Pijade’s novel Strast)     Since its publication in 1921, David S. Pijade’s Strast (The Passion)  has been classified as a naturalist novel, contrary to its themes: passion as subordinated to the fatalism of nature: Eros and Thanatos, the hedonistic experience of an ‚intense moment’, the theme of sacred lesbian love. The article indicates that this classification is a mistake stemming from the lack of the decadent movement in Serbia, either as a literary current, or a worldview. A new reading proposed in this article calls for a revision of persistent views about the shape of Serbian modernism in the early twentieth century.   VL - 2017 IS - Volume 12, Issue 3 PY - 2018 SN - 1897-3035 C1 - 2084-3933 SP - 223 EP - 233 DO - 10.4467/20843933ST.17.018.7584 UR - https://ejournals.eu/czasopismo/studia-litteraria-uic/artykul/pokonac-epidemie-czyli-o-dekadentyzmie-w-literaturze-serbskiej-na-przykladzie-powiesci-strast-davida-s-pijadego KW - naturalizm KW - dekadentyzm KW - Eros i Tanatos KW - homoerotyzm KW - literatura serbska początku XX wieku.
