Abstract:
The paper examines poetic oppositions that occur within the structure of Branko Copic’s novel The Marshmallow Color Garden. It emphasizes binary oppositions of motifs, represented in both individual stories (“Pohod na mjesec”, “Plavi lončići”) and cycles (“Jutra plavog sljeza”, “Dani crvenog sljeza”) and provides selected interpretations, specifically that of the letter to Zija Dizdarevic, in which the opposites listed in pairs are explicitly highlighted and marked as a constructive procedure characteristic of the poetic project as a whole. Binary oppositions of motifs are identified on the basis of conceptual distinctions devised by the author and include good and evil, dream and reality, high and low, open and confined space. Each of them features mutual opposites and is simultaneously burdened with uncertainties and mutual permeation of opposing concepts.
