Bašćanska ploča kao književno nadahnuće i instrument lingvostilističke analize
Abstract
The Baška Tablet as a Literary Inspiration and Instrument or Linguistic-Stylistic Analysis This paper analyzes a collection of poems Baščanska ploča – poema (The Baška Tablet – poem) written by the contemporary Croatian writer Mile Pešorda. The initial task of this study is to examine the level of sensitivity of the author's pen to the oldest period of Croatian literary history. Secondly, the underlying citation signals of Pešorda’s poems and their intertextual connection with monuments of medieval Croatian culture will be identified, and all this due to the precious stone of Croatian cultural heritage – the stone Tablet of Baška. The methods and procedures of stylistic analysis will be carried out and therefore will allow the identification of stylistic language features on all linguistic levels – from graphematics and graphetics to the syntax. Due to previous analyses that have acknowledged the Baška Tablet as a monument that can also be perceived through the symbolism of numbers, this paper comes with an important appendix, which represents a new perspective and an attempt of comparative numerological analysis that includes the Baška Tablet and Pešorda’s poems.
