Abstract
This paper offers a stylistic analysis of the recent collection of poems Africa, which is part of a large poetic corpus by Tomislav Marijan Bilosnić. His poetry is characterised by the poetic and stylistic mannerism, auto-mannerism and a Mediterranean component, whose meaning suggests an interpretation that his work should be divided into separate poetic branches. The stylistic analysis of this collection of poems sheds light on the recent part of his work and contributes to a
better understanding of his poetry, which so far has not been adequately investigated. Furthermore, this analysis covers some micro and macro structures; of the analysed micro structures the comparison, metaphor, symbol and catalogue are emphasised, whereas the macrostructures include the manifested, magical, mythical, panhumanistic, political, asyntactical ans asemantical discourse and the discourse of genre-images. The above mentioned structures are interpreted in the relevant texts of poems, a precise differentiation of various modes is given through the analysis and the results are explicated in the context of Bilosnić’s poetry.
