It provides an overview of the previous treatment of the topic and attempts to establish a connection between the alchemical motifs of Vasko Popa’s poetry and those in texts by A. Breton, M. Eliade, C. G. Jung, Fulkanelli, and his student Eugen Kanzelli. Within a given context, it analyzes symbols in the collections of poems No-Rest Field and Home in the Middle of Road; the poem A Heart of Pebble Stone from the collection No-Rest Field; the cycle of poems Fiery Wolf; the fourth and the sixth poems of the cycle Wolf’s Bastard from the collection Wolf’s Salt; and the poem Discussion on Dew from the collection The Cut. http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode Popin, Aleksandra R. srp eng 2013
