ХУМАНИЗАЦИЈА НА ЛИЧНОСТА НА УЧЕНИКОТ ПРЕКУ ПОЕЗИЈАТА НА АЦО ШОПОВ / HUMANIZATION OF THE STUDENT’S PERSONALITY THROUGH THE POETRY OF ACO ŠOPOV

Abstract

Born opposite the western flank of the Isar, in Gorno Maalo, in a small house at
“Solunska” no. 10, Aleksandar (Aco) Gjorgi Zafirov - Sopov, will spend his childhood, from
birth until he joined the partisans in 1943.From the first integral poetic manifestation -
“Poems” (1944), through “Rail of youth” (1947 together with S. Janevski), the verses
written by our hands about pain and joy that merge with the silence and say that the
wind brings good weather come out the extraordinary books “Not-being”, “Reader of the
ashes” and “The song of the black woman”, until the last poetic testament “The tree on
the hill” (1980), Sopov creates incredible humanistic messages, and the mission of his
literature is philanthropy. Through the metaphor, Aco reveals the human soul and sends
a message on how to be better, to be clean, to progress. Charred palms indicate working
and clean hands and that one must work to survive. Reading Sopov’s poetry, through his
three-phase poetic opus, it is inevitable that we perceive his humanistic side, which we
also convey to the students by processing part of his poetry. Through a small part of his
poetry, the students find the light in the darkness because it always manages to suppress
the darkness and thus humanize their personality, to know that good defeats evil.
