Šarlota Castelli-Glembay
Šarlota Castelli-Glembay is a fictional character from Miroslav Krleža's play 'Gospoda Glembajevi,' first published in 1921. She is depicted as a complex and multifaceted figure, embodying both allure and manipulation. While Krleža's prose reflects a certain admiration for her character, portraying her with a poetic and romantic essence, the drama itself reveals a starkly different portrayal of Šarlota as cunning and sexually assertive. Her character serves as a commentary on the themes of power and desire within the bourgeois society of early 20th-century Croatia, illustrating the intricate dynamics of gender and social status.
