Leksikosemantički sloj u strukturi sufijske poezije

An examination of the lexical-semantic level of Sufi poetry analyses the expressive features of lexical choices with powerful evocative potentials, i.e. words in their primary and secondary meaning, that is their literal and transferred meaning, as well as the tropic use of words as the source of expressive power of different forms of expression: metaphors, symbols, allegories, metonymy, synecdoche, euphemisms, etc. In this sense, a particularly striking register is that of tasawwuf, with its particular use of language, oncologic metaphor and interpretation of verse, citing the literal meaning first, followed by the metaphoric one.
