RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SURREALISM AND TRADITIONAL CULTURE IN MILAN DEDINAC’S POETRY

Summary/Abstract: The paper aims to examine the relationship between avant-garde, surrealistic poetics specifically, towards Serbian folk literature and traditional culture, using Milan Dedinac’s poems as examples. Although the status of the artwork in the context of the folk literature differs significantly from the avant-garde text, the amount of the analogies that indicate the common features of these two distant literary productions is substantial. Theoretical conclusions about the nature of this relationship will be applied to the Milan Dedinac’s surrealistic text, which integrates the legacy of the folk traditions at different levels by employing resemantization and reconceptualization. Language, symbolism and the melodies of Milan Dedinac’s poems use the original and collective to democratize the literature, giving the priority to the activism of the present and not to the mytholo- gizating and remythologizating of the past.
