metadata.value: The article dwells upon the time and space in Sigbjørn Obstfelder’s prose poetry.
  The genre of prose poetry came to Scandinavia at the end of the 19th century, on the
  peak of the French symbolism popularity. The strong influence of the French symbolist
  Charles Baudelaire is obvious in Obstfelder’s works. The most significant feature that
  defines the chronotope of Obstfelder’s poems is opposition between man and nature.
  By a person the author means not a lyrical hero but other people, the whole society,
  the essence of which can be described as “the abode of many people”. “Other people”
  are synonymous with the concept of “city”, and this chronotope is clearly seen in many
  of his poems. The poet describes both nature and city in details and the chaos of the
  city extremely contrasts with the rich and harmonious life of nature. The opposition
  of harmony and chaos, sincerity and alienation is emphasized by the contrast between
  the sounds of nature and the city: between weeping, sobbing, screaming, roaring and
  the sound of drops, the rustling of leaves and the singing of birds. Despite the beauty
  and harmony of nature the lyrical hero still cannot exist outside the city for a long time.
  Perhaps he can exist only in a borderline state — between people and nature, harmony
  and chaos, trying to combine, unite in the mind both worlds, but staying alone in both
  of them. The common feature of all his prose poems is transition and border crossing
  and it can explain the originality of Obstfelder’s prose poems.
