Summary
Jasmin Agić: History of the Rejected
Texts about the most important Bosnian storytelling artists, who suffered the fate of social rejection, rethink the artistic canon in its self-destructive appearance.
In his texts, Jasmin Agić tried to understand why the Bosnian society persistently and continuously does not want to recognize the most significant values of its own culture, constantly inventing reasons for the persecution of people who want to modernize artistic practice with their poetic understandings and aesthetic beliefs.
The book is made up of 22 chapters, and in the first, introductory one, entitled The ugly face of primitivism, Agić explains the reasons and mechanisms of social rejection.
