Review: Corin Braga, Pour une morphologie du genre utopique
The Utopic Genre. Taxonomy, Cultural History, and “Worldmaking”.

Pour une morphologie du genre utopique by Corin Braga aims to solve the problem of the utopian genre morphology by identifying four subtypes of utopia: eutopia, outopia, dystopia, antiutopia. Using a strong theoretical frame, the study applies the classification on a substantial literary corpus, extracted from different epochs and different litteratures, from British to French, Romanian or Russian.

Keywords: utopian genre, eutopias, outopia, dystopia, antiutopia, morphology.

Note despre binomul cultură–civilizaţie

Notes on the “Culture-Civilization” Binomial

The ratio of culture and civilization is brought back into discussion from an analytical point of view in the 18th century. The above-mentioned binomial has been interpreted in various forms, from the overlapping of these notions to their friendly opposition. In recent definitions, in a certain way, the term of culture is preserved. Later, Oswald Spengler brought some shades in the ratio culture-civilization. In the present article we have offered a few remarks which are strong arguments in favor of this ratio as the one showing perfect identity or complementarity.

Keywords: culture, civilization, citizen, spirituality, cultural anthropology.

Fotografia în contextul spiritualității contemporane. Perspective antropologice: o nouă mitologie

Photography in the Context of Contemporary Spirituality.
Anthropological Perspectives: A New Mythology

This work places photography in the context of contemporary spirituality, starting from the human need to stop time by taking photos. Photography perfectly illustrates the need of contemporary man for magic, myth, the supernatural, as a way to relate to everyday life. Photography, especialy digital photography, is part of the `new mithologies` of conteporary spirituality. Photography has become a kind of emotional memory, a repository of reality that can express notions and states of the most varied. Despite the dangers it presents, digital procesing greatly stimulates creativity, innovative idea, vision, skill or desire of the photographer. The photography route is analized from cultural perspective, between two landmarks: Susan Sontag and Jean Baudrillard.

Keywords: photography, cultural anthropology, contemporary spirituality mitology, digital photography.

Vase ceramice neolitice timpurii din Transilvania. Funcționalitate, artă decorativă și simbol

Early Neolithic Pots from Transylvania. Functionality, Decorative Art and Symbol

Through this study we do not intend to make a general presentation of the early Neolithic ceramic material discovered in Transylvania. We want to choose some samples considered representative in order to be included in the three categories proposed in the title: functionality, decorative art elements, and symbols. In most cases, we chose materials discovered through research conducted in the last ten to fifteen years, taking into account the research teams we were part of and material that we managed to either analyze and interpret statistically, or to develop and/or photograph. Although the materials have already been presented either in the research reports, in the monographs dedicated to the sites in question, or in scientific articles, we consider our approach useful since it details aspects strictly related to Starčevo-Criș ceramics.

Considerații lingvistice privind fitonimele românești construite cu ajutorul termenului “vânt” (I)

Autor: Radu DRĂGULESCU

Linguistic Considerations on Romanian Phytonims Created with the Term Wind (I)

In the folkloric creations of the Romanians the wind has deep mythological implications. Our paper aims to reveal an inventory, an interpretation and a statistical analysis of Romanian names of plants which implicates the word “wind,” spread through the
botanical terminology, a phenomenon which, as considered by E. Coşeriu is not enough highlighted (given that the individual speaker became creator of language / poetry whenever he named a flower. Botanical popular terminology has primarily a
practical value, designating, distinguishing and categorizing elements of the plant kingdom within the given natural reign, but also has a high theoretical significance, especially for linguists, both by the ethimons to which they send back and by the metaphorical meanings the phytonims mostly have.

O analiză a lexiconului gastronomic actual

Autor: Monica BORȘ
Email: monica.bors@ulbsibiu.ro

An Analysis of the Current Gastronomical Lexicon

The article aims to observe the way in which neologisms in the gastronomic area are processed in current Romanian language.
Three situations are reported: one in which the neologism is imposed as a result of the need to name the notion, a second in which the neologism takes the form of barbarism or xenism and circulates next to the local term, and a third in which the neologism or neological structure is taken over through copying and gets close to linguistic snobbery.

Keywords: gastronomical lexicon, Romanian neologisms, barbasisms, linguistic borrowings.

Effets de l’emploi du déterminant possesif

Autor: Maria-Rodica MIHULECEA
Email: rodica.mihulecea@ulbsibiu.ro

The Effects of Using the Possessive Determinative

In the present article we intend to point out some contextual effects of using the possessive determinative such as the ones we find in describing a text or in a dialogue. We shall insist upon the descriptive effects (centring our attention on the element
which is part of the „reference pole”; concentrating the sight upon one detail of the element; insisting upon the habit of an activity, etc.). We shall also insist upon the appreciative effects. They derive from the speaker’s appreciation which is expressed
in conversation. Such an appreciation may be positive (solidarity, affiliation, respect) or negative (contempt, irritation). These effects are created by the possessive determinative inside the relation expressing the subordination between two elements,
or inside a context where an element belongs to another. In order to illustrate these effects generated by the presence of the possessive determinative we have chosen examples from many literary texts.

Keywords: French possessive article, determinative, effects, descriptive, appreciative.

Autenticitate și ideologii în literatura douămiistă

Autor: Adriana STAN
Email: adrstan@yahoo.ca

Authenticity and Ideologies in the Literature of the 2000s

This article attempts to provide an ideological and typological account of the realist wave that emerged in Romanian literature around the year 2000. By challenging the mostly interliterary readings that related millennial fiction to or against pre-1989 literary history, I assume the premise of the cultural and political shift of postcommunism in order to point out the indebtment of this literary movement to the ideological imaginaries established in the public space of the 1990s. I henceforth explore the typological consequences of the post-1989 climate by arguing that millennial realist aesthetic remained shortsighted in its scope of social observation and its anti-capitalist claims due to the young writers’ instinctive allegiance to neoliberal discourses of the free individual that coalesced with the biographical writing devices in which this fiction voluntarily confined itself.

Keywords: postcommunism, realism, authenticity, biographical writing, social observation.

In Mircea Cărtărescu’s latest colossal novels (the Blinding trilogy and the solitary Solenoid), the novelistic conception is associated with a special theoretical platform predicated on terms such as gnostic, fractile, holarchical, asymptotical, spiralled, or termitelike
– assumed, at a conceptual level, in a postmodernist or even post-postmodernist sense. The present study examines the validity of these concepts, which render Cărtărescu’s recent prose as a partial container of the exact sciences (like mathematics or
physics), evincing a comprehensive philosophical conception according to which the novel, as genre, can represent a third or even a fourth dimension in the cultural, human, cosmic space. This is the author’s ambitious project, which the present research aims
to deconstruct, with a view to highlighting the possible mutations the novel undergoes as a genre under Cărtărescu’s penmanship.

Keywords: gnosticism, fractals, holarchy, Mircea Cărtarescu, brain, map, vision, dream.

Destine crepusculare – ratarea între hedonism și ură de sine. Mateiu I. Caragiale

Crepuscular Destinies – FAilure between Hedonism and Self-Hatred. Mateiu I. Caragiale

The present study draws a comparison between the non-fictional prose of E.M. Cioran and the fictional one of Mateiu Caragiale, identifying the feeling of existential loss and despair as their common denominator. In Cioran’s case, this feeling is eventually converted in a perpetual mystical anarchism, challenging the negative capability of the sacred; in what regards Mateiu Caragiale fiction, a typical psychological compensation converts this feeling of existential loss into a buffo dandysm, a perpetual operetta nobility. Both of these attitudes, originating in a similar existential void, represent two fundamental answers of modernity at this feeling of Geworfenheit.

Keywords: modern Romanian literature, E.M. Cioran, Mateiu Caragiale, faces of modernity, dandysm.

Vasile Aaron – un scriitor redescoperit

Vasile Aaron – a rediscovered writer

Vasile Aaron (1780-1821) had an important contribution to the modernization of the Romanian literature. He was a representative of the Transylvanian Enlightenment School. He gave us the first translation of Aeneid, a masterpiece of Antiquity and he did this
work while he was very young, in 1805. Although it contains imperfections, this work is remarkable for the fluency of the text, for the picturesque of some descriptions, for the dramatic characters he presented, and, last but not least, for his talent as a
versifier. The complete studies written by Liliana Popa and Nicolae Popa shed light upon one of the most prominent writers of those times.

Keywords: Vasile Aaron, Pre-Romantic Age, Enlightenment, Aeneid, translation, lexical innovation.

Life writing: from the Story of the World to the Story of the Self

The aim of the present study is at least twofold, combining practical and theoretical perspectives: the former one is meant to highlight the enduring power of storytelling as the epitome and vital essence of connecting life and literature; and the latter one resorts to a relatively recent concept, i.e. career construction theory delineating the notion of “later career novel”. The analysis will be performed on Julian Barnes` Levels of Life (2013) and The Only Story (2018), whereas Haruki Murakami`s What I Talk About When I Talk About Running (2007).

Epistolary Narratives and the ‘Private Sphere’ in the Eighteenth-Century English Novel

The aim of the present paper is to investigate the ways in which some eighteenth-century English novelists simultaneously endorsed and challenged the narrative conventions of realism, by recourse to the epistolary technique and to a choice of narrators and narrative situations that conformed to the conventions of ‘domestic fiction’ and by resorting to irony and intertextual parody, respectively.

Emily Dickinson and Cioran – The Poetic Springs of a Dialogue Through Time

This article focuses on the poetic spring of the relationship between the texts of Cioran (1911-1995) and the poems of Emily Dickinson (1830-1886) from the perspective of comparative literature and of the po(ï)etics. Taken into account are the main reasons that explain Emily Dickinson’s appearance in Cioran’s creative space. We are also interested in the similarities between the two authors in writing the self and the world, identity being a major element in this respect.

Littéraires et sociologues: enjeux interdisciplinaires d’une redéfinition de la littérature comme dispositif d’intelligibilité du social

Literati and Sociologists: Interdisciplinary Issues of Redefining Literature as a Social
Intelligibility Device

In the context of what seems to be known in France as the “crisis of literature”, one of the solutions often put forward over the past two or three decades is to invoke the epistemic capacities of literary works, in order to argue their usefulness and legitimacy.
Literature specialists, but also representatives of other fields of study thus speak of a sociological, historical or philosophical knowledge, which would be possible through literature. This situation brings to light the question of interdisciplinary relations
in the French intellectual and academic field. This article proposes the analysis of such a confrontation between literary figures and sociologists, around the notions of implicit sociology of literature and novelistic sociology. We try to show, through the
examination of the discussions on this subject between intellectuals such as Bernard Lahire, Jacques Dubois, Nathalie Heinich, etc., that the strong enhancement of literary works by the use of the idea of knowledge through literature could lead, in return,
to critical questioning of the importance and legitimacy of literary studies.

L’isolement créateur de Flaubert

Autor: Emilia-Ioana VAIDA

Flaubert’s Creative Isolation

In a world in which isolation means misfortune rather than conscious choice, it is important to know that, to a major writer such as Gustave Flaubert, it represented the work environment in which he wrote his most important works. At first, isolation came as a medical need after a nervous breakdown suffered at the age of 23. The year of convalescence spent in the peaceful atmosphere of Croisset, a small village in Normandy, made him want to stay home and work alone in his first-floor study with a view on the Seine. Little by little, isolation became a professional need fully assumed and a life style, as he admitted in a large number of letters. The writer learnt how to overcome, with the perseverance of someone who wanted to write the perfect work, all the obstacles that arose. He sacrificed everything in order to achieve his goal and thus he remains an inspiration to all those who want to write.

In the Father’s Shadow: Rememory and Identity in Christoph Hein’s Novel “Glückskind mit Vater” [”Lucky child with Father ”]

Born in Silesia in 1944, Christoph Hein lived in the eastern part of Germany. In the novel Glückskind mit Vater published in 2016, reissued in 2019, on the occasion of the author’s 75th birthday and the 30th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin Wall and the Iron
Curtain, it presents, based on the evolution of the protagonist Konstantin Boggosch, over sixty years of German history. The present article includes the analysis of the mentioned novel, focusing in particular on two aspects: the one of remembrance
and of the construction of identity, in the foreground being a person who throughout his life tries to free himself from the “shadow” of his father. The theoretical basis of the analysis is the study of Alleida Assmann, Der lange Schatten der Vergangenheit.

Überlegungen zur Anwendung der Skopostheorie in der Übersetzung von Judikatstexten der Neuzeit aus den Beständen des Hermannstädter Archivs

Autor: Ioana CONSTANTIN
Email: ioana.constantin@ulbsibiu.ro

Reflections Regarding the Application of the Skopostheorie in Translating Judiciary Texts
Belonging to Early Modernity from the National Archives of Sibiu

Translation theory has entered a new paradigm when defining translation as action determined by a purpose and by placing the translator in the center of the translation process, allowing him a much larger degree of freedom within the borders of a
rigourously defined practice. This paradigm shift has also brought about the replacing of the concept of equivalence with that of adequacy, thus enabling the translator a more creative approach to the text. The skopos theory might contribute to bridging the
gap between theory and practice in the field of translation. The article intends to briefly describe the most important aspects of the skopos theory and to discuss its possible applicability in the translation of a corpus of texts representing witness depositions
and court records of the witch trials in Sibiu, Transylvania, during the 17th century, at the hight of the witch persecutions. A short description of the specific aspects of Transylvanian witch trials will also be included.

Translation as an act of literary cartography. Trado – a poetic and theoretical
experiment by Svetlana Cârstean and Athena Farrokhzad

The topic of the current article is the poetry volume Trado by Svetlana Cârstean and Athena Farrokhzad, a poetic and theoretical experiment that focuses on the concept of translation. In the context of geocriticism having gained a significant scope in the recent years while emphasizing the strong connection between literature and spatiality, it is noticeable that the mentioned translation experiment, although concerned with the language, is mainly an act of “geocreation”, of reciprocal construction of the place where each of the two poets originate from. Most importantly, neither of the two authors has access to the original
language of the other’s poems, both of them using a third language, an instrument language which becomes a no man’s langue.
By means of this language, the two poets create a new map, a utopian map that perfectly fits Bertrand Westphal’s review of geocriticism. The act of translation becomes, thus, an act of literary cartography and it is made possible by the two lyrical voices
letting go of their own fixed, original identities.

Keywords: translation, place, geocriticism, poetry, spatiality.
