In: RITL, New Series, XLIV, No. 1-4, January-December 2007, p. 251-261Titlul: POETICĂ ȘI ORNAMENTICĂTitle: POETICS AND ORNAMENTICSPages: 251-261Language: RomanianURL: https://ritl.ro/pdf/2007/17_L_Hanganu.pdf Abstract: The study discusses the relationship between poetry and ornamentation in the light of Baudelaire’s theory of correspondences. Starting from the title of Edgar Poe’s volume, The Tales of the Grotesque and the Arabesque, Baudelaire notices that the two art motifs are an illustration of the dual nature of modern poetry, which is simultaneously harmonious and dissonant. At the same time, the poetic phrase has the sinuous course of the arabesque line, proving that poetry is a palimpsest of all artistic expression. The kinship of poetry and ornamentation, which transcends Lessing’s opposition between arts of time and arts of space, is the archetype of Baudelaire’s correspondences, which restores at the phantasy level a lost plenitude — a completeness still present in the form of the medieval manuscript.

KOGĂLNICEANU IN CORRESPONDENCE (”… KOGĂLNICEANUʼS MOST DURABLE WORK…”)Pages: 213-236Language: RomanianURL: https://ritl.ro/pdf/2007/15_A_Nestorescu.pdf Abstract: Mihail Kogălniceanu is rediscovered as a writer in his vast and picturesque correspondence. The vocabulary in these numerous letters is archaic but disposes of a peculiar fragrance. Encompassing a period of over fifty-seven years, this correspondence brings testimony about the western realities of those times, contrasted to the Moldavian ones. In this way, it can be taken as a document about the habits and ideals of the 1848 generation.

That is everything related to academic tradition. But, nonetheless, there is a difference between the Romanian ”proletcultism” and the Soviet one. Communism in Russia was more aesthetic-infused, being accepted non-proletarian inspiration also.

👤Author Name: Andrei Gligor 📄Article Citation Recommendation: GLIGOR, Andrei. „Critica postbelică”. In: RITL, New Series, XLIV, No. 1-4, January-December 2007, p. 143-148Titlul: CRITICA POSTBELICĂTitle: POSTWAR CRITICPages: 143-148Language: RomanianURL: https://ritl.ro/pdf/2007/11_A_Gligor.pdf Abstract: It’s not normal that important post-war critics like Nicolae Manolescu, Eugen Simion and Ov. S. Crohmălniceanu should be expelled from the curricula. They imposed the most representative contemporary writers and defended and enlarged the cultural values inherited from Maiorescu, Lovinescu and Călinescu. In fact, we can’t speak about a gap in the Romanian literary criticism. That is why the explosive emergence of a generation of V.I.P. critics, ready to give credit to commercial authors, proves to be so alarming.

Aşa se face că, încă de la primele culegeri de nuvele şi povestiri, publicate într-un context cu totul nefavorabil afirmării valorilor, autorul s-a impus printre cei mai valoroşi prozatori ai generaţiei sale. Indiferent de genul abordat ulterior, de la cronica sportivă şi cărţile pentru copii la proza confesivă, memorialistică, de la roman la dramaturgie, această literatură a a manifestat obstinat, prin însăşi „formula“ ei, o tendinţă „evazionistă”* (metaforismul, dislocarea linearităţii epice în nuclee narative proliferând, dacă se poate spune aşa, „pe verticală“), principial ostilă contaminării ideologice, cu mesaj propagandistic. În opinia noastră, unul dintre momentele de vârf ale creaţiei lui Fănuş Neagu îl reprezintă volumele de povestiri târzii Pierdut în Balcania (1982), Partida de pocher (1994) şi O corabie spre Bethleem (1997), volume care concentrează, în piese efasate cu minuţie de bijutier, trăsăturile unei formule epice inimitabile.

His word choice is rich and expressive, very much resembling that of Sadoveanu’s. In the same time, the vernacular realism is combined with an ancestral wisdom and this is the secret of an incomparable art of story-telling. Bibliography: Simion, E. Scriitori români de azi.
