MODERNIST LANGUAGE CONSCIOUSNESS IN THE WORKS OF TIN UJEVIĆ
Ljiljana Šarić
Sažetak
The article discusses the use of poetic language by the poet Tin Ujević, as well as his understanding of poetic language as reflected in his prose.The aim was to investigate how Ujević’s philosophy of poetic language and language use relates to European avant-garde movements, whose language consciousness represents a radical modernist language philosophy in general. Common modernist principles can be traced based on selected examples from Ujević’s prose and poetry. Those principles are exemplified in texts by avant-garde authors who reflected extensively on the topics "language" and "words." Among these principles is the understanding of language as an agent, an autonomous subject capable of acting independently of the person articulating it. In addition, a text is conceived of as a flow ofl anguage events, and not as a series of reality events. Accordingly, literature is not composed of ideas, but of words, and language is not only an expression/text medium, but also the expression/text itself.
