摘要:After describing the theories of developmental psychology, a quality analysis was done in the Ferić's novel, and then a quantitative analysis was implemented. Descriptions of the main character in the novel can most frequently be recognised from the perspective of the life-span development approach and the ecological developmental theory. Maturation, development and shaping of the main character (as well as other characters), is primarily described through the proces of timing, and it is further built, widened and strengthened by using the narrative strategies of the psychological effect. It can be concluded that the novel Kalendar Maja has embedded psychological narrative strategies and genre characteristics of a bildungsroman. However, bildungsroman is not recognised as an educational novel, but as a novel about upbringing. Mostly, the novel can be described as a complex postmodern genre hybrid of a strong psychological discourse.
