Sažetak

This paper analyses Nikica Petrak’s lyrical poem Southern Side of Hvar. The analysis starts by noting that the whole poem is marked by the figure of addressing, in which the lyrical subject addresses an addressee. The further analysis shows that the lyrical poem Southern Side of Hvar is expressively rich in evocation revealing the poem’s desire to become intimate with the world, as well as revealing that it is a poem of an ecstatic and rhapsodic subject. Petrak’s poetic images express a close proximity of poetry as a literary form to visual arts, while the poem’s meditative and unpredictable rhythm arising from specific word order indicates a musical dimension, which, in turn, draws this poem closer to a dream. The theme and motifs of the poem are analyzed on the basis of the structure of the poem, revealing a gradual unison of the lyrical subject and the object (the addresee). This leads to the conclusion that the poem Southern Side of Hvar, although focusing on the topic of landscape, can also be interpreted as a love poem.
