ВОНВРЕМЕНСКАТА ДИМЕНЗИЈА НА ПОЕТСКАТА РЕЧ НА АЦО ШОПОВ / THE ETERNAL DIMENSION OF ACO ŠOPOV`S POETRY
Abstract
The poetic word in its immanent predisposition establishes a relationship with
the sacred matrices. The moments of connection between the sacred and the profane
encode the poetic motifs and patterns, which continuously, singing cantatively, allusively,
emotionally, figuratively, cognitively condition new models, new images, new symbols.
The poetic word within the framework of its discourse, its song, its verse, sings layered
meanings that reproduce emotion, energy, thought and sense, from the beginning, from
a hundred centuries ago, since yesterday, until today, etc., etc. to infinity, to nothingness,
from all its sides, angles, lengths, heights, widths and depths. Šopov’s unreservedly
profound, massively thought-provoking, crucially lucid poetic record offers a timeless
relevance with every re-reading. Even after many decades, the poetic lines of Aco Šopov
enchant the mind by arranging rhythmic sayings about being and becoming, about
possibility and impossibility, about power and impotence, about human existence and
non-existence, unfolded in the bonds of the golden circle of time. The poet paints the
deep sentimentality using figurative aspects and functions, while artistically and poetically
skillfully stimulating emotional aspects, while deeply concealing and revealing, the secret
but well-known cognitive dimension of poetic telling. Quite authentically less archaic, it
sings ancient archetypal symbolism, which corresponds to the Jungian paradigm, while
compositionally it spills out with the lyrical functional focus of emotional-aesthetic,
figurative-pictorial and cognitive-thoughtful poetics, according to the theoretical
framework of Katica Kulavkova. The timeless dimension gives a reflective feature to the
lyric, which poetically, artistically and deeply closely interweaves, not the transhistorical,
but outside the time and transhuman archetypes, essentially and substantially uniting lyric
and semiotics, being and non-being.
