Българският нонсенс на 90-те: Константин Павлов, Биньо Иванов, Петър Чухов
Bulgarian Nonsense Verse of the 1990s: Konstantin Pavlov, Binyo Ivanov, Petar Chuhov

Summary/Abstract: This paper explores the poetics of nonsense in the context of three representatives of Bulgarian literature from the 1990s. Konstantin Pavlov, Binyo Ivanov and Petar Chuhov create nonsense structures in the genre of poetry, children’s fairy tales and short prose. They bind non-existent images, overturn the organization of a text, and combine incompatible terms. Through a reversal in syntax, the formation of new words and the negation of punctuation and grammatical rules, these three authors challenge readers to climb upon the ruins of a sense lost and to laugh at their pathetic need for logic and meaning.
