| Title | Cultural Sentiment and Urban Space in Modern Zagreb |
| Summary | This thesis examines the cultural situation in Zagreb in the second part of the nineteenth and the beginning of the twentieth century by focusing on its built environment. It is based on the understanding that urban processes and architecture are a reflection of wider cultural and political ideologies. The thesis traces the reasons for and results of Vienna’s determining influence on Zagreb’s culture and architecture through architectural styles of fin de siècle, highlighting both similar and different urban solutions employed by the two cities during the period in question. It also shows how this dual relationship was in fact part of a triangle of power plays, with Croatia trying to find a balance between Austrian and Hungarian hegemony. |
