Svet i istina književnosti : Kamijev nagovor na pomirenje

Abstract

Članak nastoji da Kamijevu viziju 'ispravljenog stvaranja', s jedne strane, motivaciono situira u književnoideološke kontroverze njegovog doba, a s druge, ukaže na njeno teorijsko opravdanje i estetsko potkrepljenje oslanjajući se na, sistematski neuobličene ali brojne i eksplicitne, refleksije autora o statusu književnosti i ulozi umetničke prakse. Zaključuje se da je naizgled kolebljiva Kamijeva pozicija proizvod svesne odluke - i njenog sprovođenja - da je prevashodni zadatak umetnika da, u protivstavu prema prevratničkim doktrinama spasonosnog rešenja, svojom buntovnom najavom obzirnog preporoda u ime pravde i lepote, razumeva i stvaralački svedoči protivrečja vlastitog vremena i zagovara njihovo, možda i nedogledno, pomirenje.

The article seeks to situate motivationally Camus’ vision of “corrected creation” in literary and ideological controversies of his time. Relying on systematically unrepresented but numerous and explicit reflections on the status of literary and the role of artistic practice, it also intends to point to the theoretical argumenation and aesthetic justification of such a vision. Conclusion is that the seemingly reluctant Camus’ position is the product of a conscious decision - and its implementation - that the task of the artist is primarily to understand and, contrary to the subversive doctrines of the salvation, with his rebellious announcement of considerate revival in the name of justice and beauty, to creatively testify contradictions of his own time and advocate perhaps unconceivable comprehensive reconciliation
