Lirska paradigma Njegoševog djela Gorski vijenac
THE LYRICAL PARADIGM OF NJEGOŠ'S LITERARY WORK THE MOUNTAIN WREATH

Summary/Abstract: For many researchers who deal with the domain of literary and theoretical thought the lyrical component of Njegoš's literary work The Mountain Wreath is interesting for a number of reasons. Naimely, the epoch of Romanticism created the predomination of lyric poetry as a type of poetry which became a concept and a criterion of one's creative endeavor. However, it was in the period of Romanticism that Njegoš decided to create a dramatic epic, but with recognisable lyrical qualities. The elements of lyrisation are highly pointed out in the literary work and have the purposeful function – to highlight the emotionality of certain individuals, the members of heroic community, to represent the relation toward a woman and her presentation as well as her beauty as a specific cultural layer but also to contribute to the comprehension of folkloristic features through the prism which is more subtle than epic and more poetically concrete than dramatic. Therefore, the lyrical places in The Mountain Wreath present broader, typological and cultural spread given throughout the scenes of the ''kolo'', descriptions of the beauty of woman, the dream of Vuk Mandušić but also through the lyrical and sacral, sometimes even humoristic (depending on the purpose and aim) relation towards weapons, beliefs, poems, ''gusle'', other cultures, jokes, dreams and future.
