Keywords:
Miroslav Egerić, essay, literary criticism, moral, pacifism, pseudo-pacifism, problem of choice, Serbian proseAbstract
In this paper, Miroslav Egerić's critical essays on works of resent Serbian prose are analyzed in their essayistic characteristics. Тhree basic forms (associative-reflexive commentary, points and critic’s marked authorial transposition) are distinguished and interpreted in which Egerić gives his essayistic observations about an ethical problem. Egerić gave his personal stamp in essays on recent Serbian prose primarily about an entire range of ethical matters. The range of moral issues refers to the problem of the choice a man makes in borderline situations, his attitude towards the world and his own existence, when a choice has to be made, and includes: the principle of physical survival, the principle of moral survival, and the problem of pacifism (and pseudo-pacifism).
