50 years without God: Apocalypse and apocrypha in Un singur cer deasupra lor by Ruxandra Cesereanu

This paper proposes the reading of Ruxandra Ceseranu’s novel Un singur cer deasupra lor as a modern apocrypha presenting a historiosophic vision of Romania’s fate in the second half of the 20th century with the use of apocalyptic themes and symbolic imagery. The analysis consists of tracing references to the Book of Revelation which is a key element to the interpretation of the novel, and to other biblical books and themes. The analysis is supplemented with an attempt at describing the most significant archetypical and cultural symbols, and the remnants of bygone traditions that provide the second reading to those historically-grounded stories. References to folk tales based on Christian imaginary world further strengthen the proposition of the apocryphal nature of the work. The additional argument supporting my thesis is the polyphonic and multilayer structure of the novel that combines subjective visions and mythical interpretations with the factual layer, and the use of palimpsest technique consisting of interweaving texts of other authors into the main narration. The paper does not address the question of the conformity of the literary vision with the source documents and historical prototypes of certain episodes and persons. Those matters were partly commented on by the author in the afterword.

The Uruz's literary case from the perspective of aesthetics of grotesque
Institutul de teorie și critică literară G. Călinescu, Bucureşti
Cofan, Aluniţa
the Urmuz’s case
the rhetoric of grotesque
Romanian literature
Romanian authors from early XX-th century
Alfred Jarry
We are trying in the following phenomenological approach to go on with our description concerning the grotesque in Romanian literature. In the first part of our work, we will make a short and diachronic review of the most important writings belonging to Romanian authors from the XIX-th century till the first decade of the XX-th century. It is then when a mysterious and shy Romanian writer, called URMUZ, gave birth to a few but influential literary pages of the absurd and the grotesque. In the second part of our work we will analyze the distinguishing traits of his ten works of prose through the mirror of the grotesque. This ignored Romanian writer was baptized “a new Alfred Jarry”, although he never had heard about this French author and never read about Ubu. The hidden influence of Urmuz unknowingly modernized the concept of literarity.

This article offers a reading of two volumes of short stories, 'Geotenn ar Werhez' by Breton author Jakez Rioù (1899-1937) and 'L’horizon bleu de la mort' by the Romanian Marin Preda. Both works describe traditional agrarian societies, one in western the other in eastern Europe, in the early to mid-twentieth century. We examine here attitudes to death and manifestations of death in Rioù’s and Preda’s writing. The thrust of the article is to suggest that these works provide rare insights into rural life in Europe before the advent of mechanisation. This leads us to consider litterature in the Celtic languages, Breton in this instance, and Romanian, as a primary sources for evidence of aspects of European culture little documented in the metropolitan traditions of other languages. Rioù’s text is translated by Youenn Drezen, Preda’s by Micaela Slăvescu.

Anton Holban
The purpose of the present article is to discuss two literary motifs that can be traced throughout Anton Holban’s prose works: music and the sea. Holban, who wrote also music reviews for newspapers, had a genuine passion for music, which is reflected in his novels and short stories. Music appears in Holban’s literature as the highest form of artistic expression, and, at the same time, as a special and unique code used by lovers to communicate with each other, which isolates them from other people. Music seems to be more important than a relationship with a woman and even than literary creation. It may become an obsession. Listening to music in solitude gives the narrator an opportunity to explore his inner world and to be himself. The sea means much more than a landscape in Holban’s works. Like music, it has a symbolic dimension, being for the protagonists a source of extatic, almost mistic experience, as well as a witness to their deepest and most intimate feelings. From philosophical point of view, the sea means infinity, eternal movement and perfection.

Circle-Stories or Upon the Narrative Circles of Life and Death in 'The Book of Whispers' by Varujan Vosganian

text The Book of Whispers
The present article considers the symbolical values of the circle in the novel Cartea șoaptelor (The Book of Whispers) by Varujan Vosganian from a hermeneutical point of view (Gilbert Durand, Jean Chevalier and Alain Gheerbrant). Moreover, from a spatial perspective, the circles of death are regarded as a double spiral, negative and positive, and the passage of characters such as Yusuf through this double spiral is the equivalent of a symbolical death and a resurrection in a new form. Moreover, taking over Paul Ricoeur’s idea (Memory, History, Forgetting) of a text being considered a sepulchre for the absents of history (Michel de Certeau), the text of The Book of Whispers is regarded and analysed as a text of the voice of those who have disappeared and died without their story being known. The roundness of character and ultimately that of transcending sufferance that the novel incorporates is rendered exactly by these circle-stories and by their polyphony.

The article discusses the problem of corporality in Max Blecher’s novels and Bruno Schulz’s short stories from the perspective of philosophical anthropology. The motifs of body and matter, predominant in both authors’ work, are a means of presenting the place of man in the universe and dealing with such questions as identity or ontology. Through the use of somatic metaphors all the elements of the fictional world are anthropomorphised or given human characteristics, which leads to the lack of hierarchy. Whereas philosophical anthropology presents humans as active and rational beings, Blecher and Schulz stress the illusion of man’s individuality and question his privileged position in the world.

A little writing not enough researched and reaching a few pages belonging to Vasile Alecsandri proves the keen interest of a comedies and vaudeville author for language issues, especially for the building of a beautiful and fluent literary language. From our point of view, of a today's researcher, it is the only work published towards the end of the 19th century (approx. 1876), which includes in the title the term of grotesque with certain connotations, unusual for the Romanian cultural space. Through an analysis sourcing in the New Criticism, we will show the links, avant la lettre, with the aesthetics of the grotesque in the Romanian space and the intuitions of a writer, considered “easy”, although a classic of Romanian literature.

Is the flâneuse even possible? The feminine and the space of modernity in O fată se plimbă pe stradă [A girl walks in the street] by Sorana Gurian

Sorana Gurian’s writing records the impossibility of a discourse of one’s own and unmasks the misogyny inherent in modernity. The Romanian short story O fată se plimbă pe stradă [A girl walks in the street] (1939) offers the author an opportunity to discuss the figure of the flâneuse, who, in its relations to modernity, public space or gender, seems to diagnose the condition of women within a modernising culture. The presence of these women in the text remains closely linked to their corporeality, constantly questioned and constrained by a hostile society. This is all the more visible in the case of a young girl with mobility disabilities: a close reading highlights the narrative function of walking, a physical activity that gives a temporal and rhythmic framework to the text.

The problem of authenticity in Anton Holban’s narrative prose
Problema autenticității în proza narativă a lui Anton Holban
Teodorowicz, Justyna
Anton Holban
psychological novel
authenticity
truth
autobiography
interwar period
The article discusses the problem of authenticity in the narrative prose written by Anton Holban, a Ro-manian author of the interwar period. Holban, one of the most innovative writers of his time, contributed to the development of the psychological novel. His work has been appreciated by literary critics from the very beginning. We consider the concept of authenticity to be one of the most important in his novels. Strongly autobiographical, they reflect man’s desperate efforts, through insightful and meticulous analysis, to discover the truth about himself and the world about him. However, absolute authenticity proves impossible to achieve, both for the narrator and the writer himself.

Reverberations of Caragialism in Andrei Pleșu’s essays (I)

hypertext
The first part of the article with the title Reverberations of Caragialism in Andrei Pleșu’s essays, completes the effort of systematizing the Caragialian literary legacy, by adding to the post-Caragialian literary corpus the publicistic essays written by Andrei Pleșu. In volumes such as Faces and masks of transition (Chipuri și măști ale tranziției), Comèdies at the gates of the Orient (Comèdii la porțile Orientului), The public obscenity (Obscenitatea publică), we find sufficient evidence of Andrei Pleṣu’s belonging to the literary trend of Caragialism. In this first part of the article, we point out that essential components from the paradigm of Caragialism, such as the irony and the sarcasm, the politics, the parade patriotism and the gastronomy are alluded to and revalued in Andrei Pleșu’s essays, in a way that highlights both the viability of the model and Pleșu’s endowment with an exceptional humoristic talent and satirical sense, worthy of a literary follower of I.L. Caragiale.

“Old” stories in “new” clothes – a reading of the novel The children’s crusade by Florina Ilis
Povești „vechi” în haine „noi” – o lectură a romanului Cruciada copiilor de Florina Ilis

Florina Ilis
Focusing on the success of Florina Ilis’ novel The children’s crusade, this article explores its potential as a literary contribution in a broader global discourse, as it could be considered “literary Romanian capital” in a discussion about world literature. While the book draws on clichéd stereotypes of Romanian society from the early 2000s, including the Ceaușescu era and the challenging transition from communism to democracy, the author uses a universal language of trauma. This allows for a wider audience to engage with the themes presented in the novel. Thus, her story becomes part of a global collection of works exploring the theme of the “children’s crusade” (including George Zabriskie Gray, Marcel Schwob, Lucian Blaga, Jerzy Andrzejewski, Thea Beckman, Gregory J. Rinaldi, Karleen Bradford, Kathleen McDonnell, Bryce Courtenay, Mario Vargas Llosa, Tullio Avoledo, amongst others). Considering the connection between continuity and innovation in Romanian literature, 75 years following Lucian Blaga’s play, with the same title, Florina Ilis employs a plot with medieval roots in her novel, which has fascinated writers worldwide, to deliver a unique perspective, in a new discourse.

Reinterpreting the myth of sacrifice for creation from the ballad Mănăstirea Argeșului in the rock-symphonic opera Meșterul Manole (2013) – analyse from a socio-historical and intermedial perspective

The main objective of my paper is to present the sociopolitical circumstances of the creation of the rock-symphonic opera Meșterul Manole (2013), based on a libretto by Victor Cârcu and composed by Joseph Kappl (former member of the rock band Phoenix), its reception by contemporary society and its character as an intermedial work. In my study, I will use the tools of the intermedial approach, which will help me to describe and grasp the relations of transposition of the myth between different media that interact and influence each other in the opera under analysis.
