Sažetak
The paper deals with the issue of expressing death in contemporary Croatian poetry in the last 30 years, more precisely, from 1990 to 2020. Death has always been an intriguing phenomenon for humankind, often traumatic and difficult to explain fully and rationally. In literature, it has always found the space of its artistic representation. The focus of this research is to look at how contemporary poetry expresses the phenomenology of death and mortality but also to gain insights into the semantic aspects of death and our relationship to it that are present in current poetic practices. Analytical readings of isolated paradigmatic examples of the poetic expressions of death in the poetry of the last three decades are methodologically based on the postulates and insights of conceptual poetics (Tsur 1992, Tsur 2008) and its functional consideration of the role of the so-called convergent and divergent poetic structures, with regard to the raising and lowering of speech energy in the poetic text and the profiling of its emotional stratification. Furthermore, against the background of concrete textual analyses and the conclusions that result from them, an attempt is made to outline the general state of phenomena and changes in Croatian poetry from the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century, both with regard to the issue of death and to some other apparent tendencies such as the (non)existence of generational determinants and the distinct heterogeneity of poetic procedures.
