Sažetak
The subject of interpretation is a corpus containing 156 lyric poems written by Matko Peić in the period from 1936 to 1968, of which six poems, created in the period from 1936 to 1939, were published in Lirika požeške mladosti in Požega in 1944. The other one hundred and fifty poems were published under the title Lirika in Rad Odjela za suvremenu književnost JAZU number 350 in 1968. Although it was with his poems that Matko Peić entered the world of Croatian literature, he did not affirm himself as a poet but as a travel writer and essayist. He did not follow the poetic trends of the time, but rather created his own poetic canon. As a poet, he is distinguished by the qualities of a scenery writer and a master of vista design. His poetry rests in the shadow of his travelogues and essays, remaining unaffirmed in critical literature and unavailable to contemporary readers. Skitnje (Wanderings), the title of his collection of travelogues published a year earlier, reveals the right approach to and the code for deciphering Lirika, a collection of poems written by this artistic wanderer, a flaneur, passing through the plains of Slavonia and Posavina, observing attentively and translating his observations and associations, connected with the seen and experienced, into words and lines allowing us to associate this collection with flaneurism. Considering his artistic orientation, in our interpretation, we will first direct our attention to the accentuated color component, picturesqueness and spatiality found in many literary vistas and landscapes. Depending on the areas the poems are depicting, they can be divided in two groups: poems thematizing the Slavonian plain landscape with rural architecture, and poems thematizing artificial nature and urban architecture.
