A KAMIKAZE PILOT ON A JAM BED (HIPERBOLIC ARMATURE OF THE POETIC LANGUAGE OF DARIJA ŽILIĆ)

Tin Lemac ; Ferenščica 45, 10 000 Zagreb, Hrvatska

Abstract

This paper is based on the research of the status and function of hyperbole in the poetic language of Darija Žilić. This author writes narrative poetry, which makes it rather difficult to carry out a stylistic analysis of her poetic language. However, a more precise insight into the structure of the text reveals hyperbole as a macro-structural figure. It is defined in terms of lexical, syntagmatic and syntactic cumulativeness and hyperbolic discourses. This typology is associated with the author’s poetics, which is characterized by reality and nostalgia. The elaboration of these correlations poses the question of a possible poetic viewpoint on her corpus and the perspective from which the future systematization of it will be done.

Keywords
