Summary
Jovan Dučić: Selected Poems
Jovan Dučić, master of words and high style, is one of the few in the Pantheon of Serbian literature who managed to capture those subtle connections that connect the soul of man with the soul of things. "Calm as marble, cold as hay", enveloped in "a strand of mysterious fog", his poetry has a European character and attitude, and represents a kind of metaphysics of feelings, built on a complex relationship to God, Love and Death.
The elegance and harmony of his verses, the refinement of extremes, the keenness of the inner eye, the rejection of the banality of everyday life, but also immediacy and clarity, enabled him to reach the "high mountains of death" and "cold lakes of peace" in order to ask the essential and essential question of Serbian modernist poetry - "who is waiting at the border?".
This edition of Dučić's poems partially reveals the chronology of the creation and publication of the author's collections, relying primarily on the composition that the poet gave them during the preparation of his own Collected Works (1929-1930). Poetic interventions, rejection of early poems, cutting, shading, framing, with the ambition to achieve perfection of form, not only gave the four books of poetry the character of four poems, four movements of a poetic symphony, but also enabled us to follow the poetic biography, the evolution of the "poet of the terrible border" on the way from the descriptive expression of the lyric of a young man, full of fog and shadows, noises and sounds, to the thin poetry of symbols.
