Opis (eng)

Abstract: Starting with the changes in British colonial policy, which began in the second half of the eighteenth century, and which related to taxes and regulation of trade and government, from the Declaration of Independence to the end of the Revolutionary War poets actively participated in the revolutionary struggle. Although they fought using words rather than arms, their poems, satires, and parodies had the power to shape public opinion, political positions, the nature of patriotism, and an understanding of freedom. According to Colin Wells’s study Poetry Wars: Verse and Politics in the American Revolution and Early Republic, which emphasizes the importance of poetry’s social engagement in shaping the American public sphere during the second half of the eighteenth century, this article examines the role of the patriotic satires, poems, and pamphlets of Philip Freneau, one of the foremost authors of the American revolutionary period. The works penned by this great fighter for American independence marked every stage of the battle with England but also mocked the internal conflicts between the Whigs and the Tories in the civil war that was fought simultaneously with the War of Independence. In the style and tradition of English Romanticism, but introducing the specific voice of America, Freneau wrote about the new world and the freedom he fought for, and he created democracy in verse in which the sensibility of the young American nation could develop smoothly.

Sažetak: Počevši od promjena koja su nastale u britanskoj kolonijalnoj politici u drugoj polovici 18. stoljeća, a koje su se odnosile na poreze i uređivanje trgovine i vlasti, pa sve do proglašenja nezavisnosti i kraja revolucionarnog rata, pjesnici su aktivno sudjelovali u revolucionarnoj borbi. Iako su se borili riječima, a ne puškom, njihove pjesme, satire i parodije imale su moć da oblikuju javno mnijenje, političke pozicije, prirodu patriotizma i razumijevanje slobode. Polazeći od studije Colina Wellsa Poetski ratovi: poezija i politika u Američkoj revoluciji i mladoj republici, koja ističe važnost društvene angažiranosti poezije u oblikovanju javne sfere Amerike tijekom druge polovice 18. stoljeća, ovaj rad istražuje ulogu patriotskih satira, pjesama i pamfleta Philipa Freneaua, jednog od najistaknutijih autora američkog revolucionarnog perioda. Djela nastala iz pera ovog velikog borca za američku nezavisnost obilježila su svaku fazu borbe s Engleskom, ali su ismijavala i unutrašnje konflikte između vigovaca i torijevaca u građanskom ratu koji se odvijao paralelno s Ratom za nezavisnost. U stilu i tradiciji engleskog romantizma, ali unošenjem specifičnog glasa Amerike, Freneau je pisao o novom svijetu i o slobodi za koju se borio, a svojim djelima kreirao je demokraciju u stihu u kojoj se senzibilitet mlade američke nacije mogao nesmetano razvijati.
