Pór Péter - Utolsó útitársak

I wrote the studies in this volume in the last years, partly on my own initiative, partly on request, and I discuss only those works that I have read with particular pleasure and depth and may read again, also a testimony to the fact that in old age a person understands his own generation best. In their series, I believe, a specific poetic ideal can be easily recognized. Of course, I cannot decide whether I have really managed to grasp the defining ideals of some of the indisputably important works of my generation, or whether I am imposing my own preference on them; and I resolutely refuse to include between these prepositions the spreading characterization of the ideal as if it were a single formula. , who could be called so, were created in the chosen creative state of melancholy: they want to realize the perfect verbal creation and the perfect verbal thought, but in the ever-present certainty that the absolute word and the absolute thought, which would change and redeem the world, are no longer is given, and it is even questionable whether it was ever really given." The lost empire of many worlds - this is revealed in Péter Pór's literary vision. This is an approach that undertakes a hopeless search for the Whole in an age where not only the Whole, but also the search for it, has long been lost. The author calls on his contemporaries, Iván Sándor, Dezső Tandori, Zsuzsa Takács, István Géher, Szabolcs Várady and Győző Ferencz, to help him in this search. These fiction writers are accompanied by thinkers Mihály Vajda, Géza Fodor and Sándor Radnóti. Whether it's poets or aesthetes, Péter Pór turns to the works of life with a kind of essential vision, making sure for all of us that the understanding of literature can also be a memory of the many worlds of the past even in the post-Hegz age.
