Information

Aims, contents and method of the course

Between Literary Critical Etiquette and Text Reality 
The proseminar will encounter and deal with the usual clichés and formulations that describe so easily and seamlessly the creativity of the classics. An attempt will be made to remove to some extent the essence of the lyric creativity of Nikolay Liliev and Elisaveta Bagriana (two emblematic Bulgarian poets) and thus to acquire a complete literary-historical vision. So, the emphasis of the analysis will shift from the "song, full-sound, semantically harmless" (unguilty) Liliev to the conflicted, dramatically moving lyrical ego in this poetry.
As for the poetry of Elisaveta Bagriana, attention will be drawn to deep, reflective, melancholic texts that are more resonant than the supernormal vitality.

Assessment and permitted materials

Comosing shorter text analyses; delivering a seminar work at the end of the semester (volume 20 pages) on a chosen topic from the already planned and discussed thematic round.
