ЖРТВЕНИ ОБРЕД У ЕСЕЈИСТИЦИ И ПЕСНИШТВУ МИОДРАГА ПАВЛОВИЋА

The paper points to a preoccupation with certain cultural and anthropological phenomena in the work of Miodrag Pavlović, especially the phenomenon of the sacrificial ritual, the meaning and function of which the author has primarily dealt with in his Poetics of Sacrificial Ritual. However, this preoccupation with human cultural and spiritual roots is not only a feature of Pavlović's essays, but is also very present in his poetic oeuvre. Hence, this paper tries to prove that one writing practice follows another, or more precisely: that one stems from another, showing threads of a higher degree of creative coherence, whereby poetic manifestation testifies to the existence of critical-essayistic and philosophical-cultural consciousness of its author.
