Angelološka arhitektura romanesknih svetova iz perspektive narativne teologije

Abstract

In this paper, we try to describe the broad angelological complex of the novel Opsada Crkve Svetog Spasa by Goran Petrović. Since the angel is the core of Petrović’s novel, we deal with its angelological structure, the processes of angelization and deangelization, the relationships of angelological figures to storytelling, but also theopoetic concepts, such as the literary Eucharist, the story as the Eucharist, which stems from the literary-angelological aspects of the novel itself. Based on the given literary and angelological settings, we also find corresponding poetic settings in the novels Seobe by Miloš Crnjanski and Hazarski rečnik by Milorad Pavić, on the basis of which the angelological architecture of the novelistic worlds is revealed within the Serbian literary tradition, where angels become the basis of different narratives.
