THE WONDER OF LANGUAGE. Gloss to the Kajkavian Lyrics of Ernest Fišer (on his 80th birthday)
Marijan Varjačić
; Varaždin
Abstract
SUMMARY
In his approach to Ernest Fišer’s Kajkavian lyrics, the author proceeds from the phenomenon of the poet’s returning home, i.e., returning to his homeland, mother tongue. He thereby follows Wilhelm von Humbolt’s philosophy and its influence on contemporary philosophy and linguistics. Significant for Fišer’s Kajkavian poetics is Humbolt’s thesis that language should not be considered as something dead and final, but more as being in the process of conceivment. An important segment in the article is about the relationship between Fišer and Galović.
