Summary/Abstract: The village of Cerna, the birthplace of the Bulgarian poet Panait Cerna, situated on a hill-valley succession, was an inexhaustible source of inspiration for his poetic imagery. The poet creates a lyric space defined by inquiry, anxiety, distress, contemplation or exaltation. The poetry of Panait Cerna is qualified by the theorists of the time as a carrier of general-human aspirations inspired by national realities, either historical or moral-aesthetic. The national factor finds itself in a complex poetic image and sensitive senses, but with optimistic aspects of the defining mioritic space. From this perspective, texts such as Flower and Gone, Jesus or In the Cave illustrate existential situations specific to the Mioritic space, both by the theme and the message approached, as well as by the coordinates built from the primary image: the alternation of the hill- valley.
