This first volume of essays and prose-pieces by Richard Berengarten
reflects his sustained involvement in the Balkans over a period of
more than thirty-five years. By focusing on his experience of
Yugoslavia before, during and after that country's dissolution,
Balkan Spaces locates, tracks and celebrates aspects of history,
folk tradition, literary culture, educational practice, politics
and poetry, while also including affectionate memoirs of many
friends, most of them writers. Through intimate explorations and
careful research, Berengarten discovers some of the patternings,
varieties and bounties of the Balkan and Yugoslav heritage. While
his keen eye questions and explores what William Blake called the
"minute particulars", his overall vision is panoramic and
multi-faceted. This book embodies a commitment to the values and
varieties of Balkan civilisation, to the poetic imagination, and to
the poet's vocation and craft.
