The Sparkle of Mirko Kovac’s Soul: Literature between Ethics and Aesthetics

Summary/Abstract: The author believes Mirko Kovac for a writer for whom the modern political boundaries, created after the breakup of Yugoslavia, don’t coincide with the limits of universal culture. Originally from Montenegro, first linked with Belgrade and with Croatia now, Kovac has remained a writer of the cultural Yugoslavia, witnessing the memories. Kovac is thought to be a time chronicler of humiliation, and above all, the guardian of moral order, the depositor ethical canons based on Christian values system. He initiated what is new in the literature, moreover, he knew how to find it on their own and special place. The tragic vision of human destiny in his prose fits into the wider context of "history and demoralizing evil of totalitarianism." Kovac, a chronicler and epician, unwavering exposing "totalitarian nihilism of the world" points to the involvement of two contexts of evil in the world - a universal and historical one.
