Summary

Vasko Popa: Kora

When it appeared in 1953, the poetry collection Kora became the subject of one of the most important public polemics about the aesthetic values of Serbian poetry. Milan Bogdanović criticized Popa's language and style, evaluating Kora as "surrealist ravings without meaning", while, on the other hand, Zoran Mišić emphasized the logical essence and comprehensibility of Popa's poetic images. Kora therefore marks a break with the dominant model of socialist realism and significantly determines the further course of Serbian poetry.

Escaping subjectivity, descriptiveness and individual sensitivity, Vasko Popa in the sixty poems of Kora shapes the experience of the world of a modern man from the city environment in a cold, "objective", but consistently metaphorical language - feelings of discomfort, threat and fear - and primarily begins a journey towards understanding the archetypal basis of modernity that will determine his later books.
