Patul lui Procust by Camil Petrescu RO

Rating: 3 (1 vote)
Country: Europe / Romania flag Romania
Description:
Triunghiuri amoroase sunt destule in amandoua romanele lui Camil Petrescu de dinainte de razboi. Combustibilul care pune dorinta in miscare este, in amandoua, vanitatea. Daca pasiunea se analizeaza si formeaza obiectul prozei psihologice, vanitatea se reflecta in gesturi si formeaza obiectul prozei comportiste. Camil Petrescu, atat de dator lui Proust in tezele lui despre roman, nu-i datoreaza mare lucru in romane ca atare. Patul lui Procust e romanul unor vanitati ranite: a doamnei T. si a lui Fred Vasilescu, in primul rand. Tocmai ale celor carora Autorul le da cuvantul, pe care-i indeamna s... continue

Plumb by George Bacovia RO

Rating: 3 (1 vote)
Country: Europe / Romania flag Romania
Description:
Bacovia cel adevărat e în poemele în care spiritul ”decadent” al simboliştilor francezi e absorbit de atmosfera apăsătoare şi sumbră a tristelor locuri unde nu s-a întâmplat nimic. El e întâiul mare poet al ”deznădejdii provinciale”, fără el n-ar fi de înţeles o întreagă literatură de după primul război. Bacovia reprezintă punctul cel mai înalt al simbolismului românesc, situându-se totodată, prin valoare, mai presus de simbolism şi de orice curent literar, în universalitate. Influenţa lui asupra po... continue

Por qué se cuece el niño en la polenta by Aglaja Veteranyi ES

Solenoid by Mircea Cartarescu EN

0 Ratings
Country: Europe / Romania flag Romania
Description:
"From Mircea Cărtărescu, author of Blinding: an existence (and eventually a cosmos) created by forking paths. Based on Cărtărescu's own experience as a high school teacher, Solenoid begins with the mundane details of a diarist's life and quickly spirals into a philosophical account of existence, history, philosophy, and mathematics. On a broad scale, the novel's investigations of other universes, dimensions, and timelines reconcile the realms of life and art. The novel is grounded in the reality of Communist Romania in the late 1970s and early 1980s , including long lines for groceries, the ab... continue
