Summary/Abstract: Nature-Transcendence and Self-Nature Relations in Sándor Weöres’s Poems. In Sándor Weöres’s poems flora and fauna are not only a decoration, serving as an allegorical/metaphorical background for the representation of the self’s alienation and for the 20th century experience of a chaotic universe, but rather the reality of beings independent of subjective consciousness. This reality carries the already forgotten mysteries of the created world, and it definitely points towards a transcendent meaning, an ultimate goal. This paper examines how the specific relationship between self and nature can be associated with the peculiar worldview and the transcendental experiences of Weöres’s poetry.
