MAGNUM OPUS RADOMIRA V. IVANOVIĆA
RADOMIR V. IVANOVIĆ'S MAGNUM OPUS

Summary/Abstract: Radomir V. Ivanović offered us a selection from a rich literary and scholarly production, divided into four sections. The first section includes contributions to the literary and theoretical approach to literature and is dedicated to theoretical issues and aporetics. The second section features a literary-historical approach to literature which sheds light on the diachronic development of the history of literature and the problems of literary historiography. These are followed by a literary-critical approach encompassing the history and theory of literary criticism, and finally, a comparative approach to the works of South Slavic, European and authors who belong to the vast body of world literature. Already at the beginning it becomes clear that at the level of abstraction Ivanović's magnum opus can be interpreted as a kind of four-dimensional coordinate system that includes four development directions of literature scholarship, and in which at the level of concretization the paradigmatic axes of Montenegrin, South Slavic and authors belonging to the corpus of world literature intersect (encompassing thus four corners of the world), which opens the possibility for their intertwining at the level of the macrostructure.
