Overview

The new social poetry, whose birth we declare here, is above all else a poetry of the rehabilitated figure of the author - rehabilitated after the total consumption of his "death." The arrogant commercialization of the Roland Barthes concept is a de facto signing of its death warrant. Its commercial optimization practically killed and buried the revolutionary-anarchist potential of the "death of the author" idea. Without an ethical subject (dependent on responsibility) and truth whose basic building blocks are transcendental, there is no social justice. Without rage for justice there is no poetry. This book deals with the origins of a contemporary Bulgarian literary movement - New Social Poetry.
