CRITICISM CONCERNING BOSKO TOKIN IN THE CONTEXT OF ZENITISM

Summary/Abstract: The work of Bosko Tokiii ill the zenitist movement was most written about in the year when the movement was established, hi the following year, 1922, only a few reviews were published, and afterwards not more than one study during one year. Until the 1960s only Rade Drainac wrote about Tokin's role in zenitism, in 1923 and 1938, and in 1961 a short review on that role was published. It has been only since the 1980s that the writing about Bosko Tokin in the context of zenitism has become more studious, and this has continued until 2012. Also, Tokin's part of the manifesto, as well as his withdrawal from the movement, were written about to the greatest degree. That topic was explored for the most part from the literary-historic point of view, but it was also interpreted from the painting and sociological point of view. The authors that have regarded Tokin's zenitist work most comprehensively are Radovan Vuckovic, Radomir Konstantinovic i Vidosava Golubovic. Out of all the reviews, the only negative ones are those written by Ljubomir Micic. Tokin's zenitist work was discovered in the 1980s, as well as the other avant-garde writers and their works. What is more, literary historians and critics which contributed to the discovery of avant-garde the most, were also the ones who contributed to the discovery of Tokin's role within zenitism. Hence, the attitude of criticism towards Tokin's work in the avant-garde movement corresponds to the attitude of criticism towards the avant-gardeliterature in general.
