Концепцията на Кажимеж Пшерва-Тетмайер и на Стоян Михайловски за краевековието

Abstract

The article is a comparative reading of works by Kazimierz Przerwa-Tetmajer and Stoyan Mihaylovski. Przerwa-Tetmajer is considered a modernist, and one of the first decadent poets in Polish literature. Mihaylovski is read mainly as a satirist, even though in the last three decades literary historians view him as precursor of Bulgarian modernism. Considering cultural specificities, following a description of the context, the comparison focuses mainly on two poems (one by each author) about “the end of the century”. Those two poems show two similar (but not at all identical) concepts. The following text tries to draw a conclusion about the concepts, about the interconnections between the poems. The interconnections do not come from direct infl uence. They are a result of trends, tendencies, modernistic inceptions, transformations of worldviews.
