The Symbolism of Water in Pencio Slaveykov’s 𝑆𝑎𝑛 𝑧𝑎 𝑆ℎ𝑡𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑒 Cycle

Summary/Abstract: Pencho Slaveykov was a controversial classic during his lifetime. The motifs in his 𝑆𝑎𝑛 𝑧𝑎 𝑆ℎ𝑡𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑖𝑒 (Dream of Happiness) cycle are numerous, but all of them are circumscribed by philosophical concepts. Dreaming, loneliness, love seen as suffering and joy, the torment of creation, death – all reflect Slaveykov’s aesthetic conception. Interestingly, water is present throughout the cycle in various hypostases, forms, and states of aggregation from the very first lines. Certain forms born of water, such as mist, rain, and morning mist, are more common.
