Sažetak
The authors approach the poem My Mother by Goran Samardžić from the perspective of cognitive metaphorization, to point out the individual and collective experience resulting from human interactions with the extralinguistic world. By decoding cognitive processes, they identify metaphorical mappings and mergers and metonymic extensions, starting from basic concepts representing the embodied cultural and personal experience of the lyrical subject. The body and the senses are engaged in the realization of metaphorical language which poetizes filial love. In addition to the basic cognitive concept that mother is the source, the poem is upgraded with metaphors that are conceptualized in perceiving and projecting the lyrical subject in the categories of space and time through interaction with everything that fills space/time as a family and existential inventory. Samardžić's lavish metaphorical and metonymic extensions in this poem are based on concepts: life is a vertical line (good is up and bad/death is down), the body is a container/machine, sound is fury, death is a thief, son is a possessor, part for a whole, whole for a part. Paying homage to the mother as the originator and source, Samardžić paid a warm tribute to the otherwise rich Bosnian body of literary works that nurture the mother's cult, poetically validating cultural experiences and perceived family schemes.
