METAPHYSICS OF META-POETRY (“THE MAIN PERFORMER“ BY BESIK KHARANAULI)

Summary/Abstract: The presented article is a part of a complex study process of an outstanding Georgian post-modernist poet Besik Kharanauli literary heritage. We have discussed one of last poem-collections of the artist “The Main Performer“ from different perspectives (Biblicalreligious, literary, philosophical...) and specifically focused on the problems of metaphysical aspects of the meta-poetry of Kharanauli. The author`s last works (“The Book of Amba Bessarion“ (2003), “The Main Performer“ (2012), “Translation from American“ (2014), “The Raven on the Tree“ (2015), the VerseCollection (1954-2005) are too important samples of Georgian post-modernist poetry. Kharanauli literary style is metanarrative, metapoetry. The presented text – “The Main Performer“ – itself has been divided into sections and headings are provided which indicate the contents of the section. No one knows better than the poet how difficult has been his work, but the author has performed it happily, conscious always of the presence of the Holy Spirit. The main inspiration of Kharanauli literary heritage is the Bible. “The Bible is not simply great literature – it is Good News for all people everywhere – a message both to be understood and to be applied in daily life.“ Besik Kharanauli often uses biblical paradigms and allusions in his metanarrative. The poet`s positions looks like the one reflected in the first letter of Saint Paul to Timothy: ”Give up those legends and those long lists of ancestors… God`s plan is known by faith” (1 Paul, 1,4).
