Opojnost uma : Misli i pogledi
A rich selection of Ujević’s essays and reflections on art, philosophy, poetry, and the human condition. The book reveals his erudition, aesthetic breadth, and passionate fascination with intellectual insights.
"The Intoxication of the Mind: Thoughts and Perspectives" offers an insight into the fascinating intellectual and aesthetic world of Tin Ujević—one of the most versatile and erudite figures in Croatian literature. This selection from his rich body of essays and critical writings presents a thematically diverse range of texts, encompassing the poet’s reflections on literature, the visual arts, philosophical systems, aesthetics, and the metaphysical dilemmas of modern man. The central thread running through this volume is Ujević’s "intoxication" with knowledge and intellectual horizons—his tireless drive to examine the world around him, seeking refuge from the banality of everyday life within the realms of art and thought. Through his characteristically lavish style, learned comparisons, and technical virtuosity, the author explores the role of the poet in society, the nature of creative fervor, and the inner struggles of the individual. In these writings, Ujević reveals himself not only as a consummate lyric poet but also as a profound analyst and a philosophical enthusiast, whose perspectives remain remarkably fresh and relevant. This 1986 edition is essential for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the conceptual foundations and intellectual breadth that underpin his poetic oeuvre.
