DŽELALUDIN RUMIJEVA POETIKA KAO SIMBOLIČKI OKVIR POUČAVANJA MORALNIM PRINCIPIMA
JALALUDDIN RUMI'S POETICS AS SYMBOLIC FRAME FOR TEACHING ABOUT MORAL PRINCIPLES

Summary/Abstract: In this paper, I will consider the specificity of the „wisdom kissing“ in Jalaluddin Rumi's poetics and its specific cultural effect which helps to teach all ages about moral principles and easier „managing through the life“. Paper will be based on presenting quatrains (Rubaiyat), wisdom stories and their characteristics from the Rumi books: The Sufi path of love, Tales from Masnavi of Rumi, Masnavi I, II, III, and from the novel Forty rules of love (Elif Shafak). The idea of this paper is to present universal values from Rumi poetics created eight centuries ago and to present its potential for use in everyday life, today. Paper, also, discusses the potential of symbolic frame applied in these works, which we could name as a „language of love“.
