Luko from this and that World

Milan Bešlić ; Zagreb

Abstract

This text outlines the thesis that Paljetak’s impressive production in almost every literary genre is marked primarily by his poetry, and that it also is the most significant part of his tremendous contribution to modern Croatian poetry. The text also attempts to emphasize the fact that this poetry is autochthonous, that is, an original poetic voice, as well as having an immense lexical culture and enviable poetic art in rhyming and non-rhyming verses. The text underlines the fact that Paljetak’s poetry has opened a completely new poetic space in contemporary Croatian literature, strongly marked by the author’s traits. The text also emphasizes another of the basic characteristics of Paljetak’s poetry, namely that it is a creative process that is open to many subjects and to an inexhaustible energy in the production of poetry.
