| Summary: | Beginning from 1954 when he appeared with his first poems, Bogdan Džuver (1936) his experience of the World and Human was shaped artistically in the form of poetic expression through more than ten poetry collections with diligent consistency, noticeable erudition and peak lucidity. He brought into them the sum of existential, creative and intellectual experiences and knowledge. Sum of humankind experience, one man's wisdom in 'survival' of life, found their place in Džuver's poetry, and in remarks, appendixes, processes and corrections, commentaries, and diary entries, whose abundance testifies on the inexhaustible energy of this a priori 'artistic worker' (creator). His creative imagination and rich erudition have been articulated into meditative-reflective the ton of his, both as per sonority and meaning, unique and particular poems. By naming the state of spirit in the process of creation as a 'workshop of spirit', Bogdan Džuver represents himself as an artist of rich creative spirit whose spiritual curiosity for cognition as the essence of the world and human is inexhaustible. His poetry reveals existential drama, ontologically founded as the fight with the 'Death'. That fight is becoming a paradigmatic form of singing and thinking of this little studied, we dare to say, poet-thinker. The feeling of transience and fragility of all existent, the being and thinking, have no consolation, but have sense in creativity, in promethean readiness to oppose the certainty of the Death through the Word which is arhe, the beginning of the world. |
