• Description:
  The  essay  titled  „Pursuing  the  Magic  of  Words  in  the  Twentieth-Century’s  Croatian  and Serbian Literature” discusses transformations of the awareness of the avant-garde and postmodernism  from  the  perspective  of  its  relation  to  magic  thinking.  The  essay  advances a vision of poetic language and the main figures of the avant-garde’s imagination, especially the aesthetic  conceptualizations  of  the  messianic  archetype.  The  avant-garde  thinking about  the world  of  unity  (of  the  world-man-language)  is  utopian  and  not  infrequently magic-esoteric. Postmodernism deconstructs symbolic language; it does not share the avant-garde’s belief in the existential and creative power of imagination and the word. The virtual culture of postmodernism reduces the value of the language sign and the referential function of language; it disenchants the conceits of the magic word.
