KVIRIN VASILJ’S VIEWS OF POETRY

Antun Lučić ; Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences, University of Mostar

Abstract

The paper examines the structure of Kvirin Vasilj’s thought, especially the
one objectified with subsections about the purpose of poetical foundation
of the world. Although his vocation is firstly philosophical, work of this
thinker has intercepted the intuitions or some “cracks” in which the poetical
narration is shown. However, this logician gives the answers to such
speech and pro-speech. His answers are not shaded with ideological or
external admixtures.
Kvirin’s system of esthetic and self-contained thought serves for identifying
the ways in which he recognizes the sparkles of extremely beautiful
and by which he understands the fire of poetry. When he enters into polemics
with Victor Vida, he gives a wider insight into a clear purpose of
poetical relation towards the world. He notices the things which should
be noticed from civilizational and philosophical point of view, receiving
doubly in return: a) new power of expressing and boldness of interpreting
poetry and b) incidental and surprising perceptions which rise from
poetical narration.
