Summary

Gordana Benić: The Palace of the Last Cartographers

The book of prose poems The Palace of the Last Cartographers Gordana Benić is the final chord of her poetic multi-volume dedicated to her native Split, the city in the palace of the Roman Emperor Diocletian. The previous three poetic collections about the fantastic spring in Split's Diocletian's Palace were inspired by the vision of the Palace as a resonant box that radiates the background echo of the City that collapsed into its shell for centuries and was formed in an unusual symbiosis by decomposing the residence of the Roman emperor. The imaginary journey or (anti) travelogue of Diocletian's Palace in this book follows the fantastic cartography of the illusory Palace which, like a prism, emanates the surreal spheres of the inner landscape. Such a Palace is a time capsule that evokes flashes and images, and its magical cartography consists of fragments that gain new contexts and meanings in invisible zones. Diocletian's palace becomes a scene for the miraculous, behind the mask of a beautiful architectural shell, a cubist panorama is established, an almost abstract mapping that moves parallel to the real world into the world of the invisible that radiates from the material labyrinth of the imperial building. In the book The Palace, the last cartographer, Gordana Benić branches out the network of mysterious coordinates that reshaped the gravitational laws inside the Palace. With her peculiar fantasy, she always evokes magical resonances in a different way, evokes an impressive poetic cartography, and asserts herself as a unique poetess of Split's Diocletian's Palace.
