Summary
Davor Šalat: Povećalo za poeziju
A three-part structured book of essays with literary critical and literary scientific elements deals primarily with the breadth and depth of the oeuvre of individual Croatian poets, partly with their mutual relationships, as well as theoretical works about them, and the book also includes several obituaries as a kind of biographical-literary portraits of some authors. In the diachronic scope, we are primarily talking about Croatian poets from the Krugava generation until today, from Ivan Slamnig and Zvonimir Golob to Ante Stamać and Stojan Vučićević. Magnifier for poetry is a book by an author who zealously follows contemporary poetic creativity and expertly reacts to the interpretive challenges it poses, writing a diagnosis of contemporary poetic movements and impulses at all levels of the poems and works to which they belong - from phonetic to worldview and intertextual.
