Radu Jude’s Intertextual Network in “Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World”

Autor: Andrei Gorzo, Veronica Lazăr
Email: andrei.gorzo@unatc.ro

The article analyzes Radu Jude’s 2023 feature film Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World. The analysis focuses on the “dialogues” or “conversations” conducted here by Jude with several other films, including his own first feature, The Happiest Girl in the World (2009), and Bad Luck Banging or Loony Porn (2021), Lucian Bratu’s Angela Goes On / Angela Moves On (1981), and Maren Ade’s Toni Erdmann (2016). Do Not Expect Too Much From the End of the World is also considered as a critique of contemporary global capitalism, as an argument against slick filmmaking, and as a demonstration of Jude’s stated interest in the cinematic possibilities of TikTok and Zoom.

Keywords: Romanian cinema, Radu Jude, anti-capitalism, neo-punk, intertextuality, Uwe Boll, TikTok, Zoom.

Celălalt în Aferim! al lui Radu Jude: dimensiunea lingvistică a rasismului

The Other in Aferim! by Radu Jude: The Linguistic Dimension of Racism

Abstract: Following the general problematics of reformulating the concepts of “discourse” and “narrative” and treating cinematic products as textual objects, with incursions into the 21st century cinema as a realist-expositional medium of the social problems of the Other, the present paper aims, by contextualizing the film Aferim! (2015) by Radu Jude, to analyze the relationship between language, language and race, racialization, and representation. In short, it aims to analyze the position of linguistic racism in the admitted “realistic” and artistic presentation of the process of marginalization. Such academic analyses have become present internationally, especially with the development of the linguistic dimension of postcolonial studies and the emergence and expansion of the concept of political correctness and/or cultural sensitivity in the contemporary socio-cultural discourse, especially in direct relation to language, language, and visual media of artistic transposition. We must be remembered, however, that Roma people occupy a marginal place even in postcolonial analysis of otherness. In the Romanian space, with a strong intertextual character, Aferim! occupies a privileged place precisely because of the primacy given to the theme: the Roma slavery in the 19th century Wallachia, during the year 1853, which is a key-year, considering that the formal abolition of slavery took place only three years later, in 1856, in Wallachia. Intentionally subversive, Jude takes the historical form of the popular films from the communist period and turns it against itself, while also adding the American-inspired aesthetic of Westerns. The multiplicity of perspectives is present, but the „intimacy” belongs to the white, oppressive characters, putting the viewer in an uncomfortable position that belongs to them historically. Following the results of the quantitative study of the present work, where the most often used word is „cocoane” [lord] in all its declined versions, Aferim! is thus a film about power dynamics, a dynamic in which the Roma are the Other.

Keywords: colonialism, linguistic racism, Roma slavery, Roma, quantitative studies.

The Trope of the Vampire (and Strigoi) in Romanian Culture and Cultural Products Imported to Romania (1839–1947)

Autor: Anca Simina MARTIN
Email: anca.martin@ulbsibiu.ro

Abstract: This article explores the different iterations of the vampire trope, as they emerge from the cultural products which originated in Romania or were imported to this country between 1839, the year when the term “vampire” entered the Romanian language, and 1947, which marks the debut of the communist regime in the country. For reasons of space, the study briefly touches on the myth of the strigoi and only insofar as it deviates from or converges toward the various manifestations of the vampire trope in the interval submitted for analysis. By looking at a wide range of media – literature, theater, music, cinema – and cultural products – prose fiction, poetry, translations, drama, radio performances, and motion pictures –, I show that the early evolution of the vampire trope aligns closely with the German and French cultural models emulated by the fledgling Romanian society and that its development reflects those pop culture elements and real-life phenomena which left their mark on public consciousness until the late 1940s. However, the Romanian culture was late to embrace the supernatural dimension of the trope, so much so that G.M. Amza and Al. Bilciurescu’s Vampirul (1938), the first Romanian novel to feature an explicit vampire antagonist, was published a century after the introduction of the word in the Romanian language.

Radicalizarea postmilenialilor: direcția queer-feministă în poezia contemporană românească și ethosul său de diferențiere

The Radicalization of the Postmillennials: The Queer-Feminist Strain in the Romanian Contemporary Poetry and the Distinguishing Ethos

Abstract: My paper aims to discuss the configuration of the queer-feminist phenomenon, with its derivatives in intersectionalism, ecofeminism and posthumanism in postmillennial Romanian poetry. The premises of this approach are, on the one hand, the left-wing ideological radicalization of the poetic discourse, and, on the other hand, the shaping of a distinguishing ethos, through which the postmillennial poets create a self-legitimizing international network comprising feminist and/or queer writers and theorists like Donna Haraway, Rosi Braidotti, Virginia Woolf, Ocean Vuong, Natalia Ginzburg, Maryse Condé, Bruno Latour, etc. Therefore, the article focuses on theoretical import through poetic creation, since, less common in Romanian literary filed, it claims the urgency for theoretical and ethical debates on militant cultural currents and directions against patriarchy, exploitation of nature and animals by humans, and against the classical centre-periphery dichotomy.

Trauma locuirii ca traumă identitară în literatura română a deceniilor 2010-2020. Duțescu, Braniște, Novac

Autor: Teodora DUMITRU
Email: teodoralilianadumitru@gmail.com

Abstract: In this essay I address a particular case of economic trauma, housing anxiety, the difficulty of obtaining housing, as reflected in Romanian literature published after 2008, the year of the global financial crisis. The housing anguish is sometimes complicated or prolonged in some post-communist Romanian writers, such as Lavinia Braniște, into an identity trauma, of the unfulfilled desire to belong to a community, to build a couple, to hold on to a “homeland”, to a certain securing collective. At other times, as with Ruxandra Novac, the economic-identity trauma moves into a new form of epigenetic adaptation: the development of an interest in non-belonging, in the transnational, in a diffuse global, the urge to belong appearing as an obsolete form of control exercised by tradition over the individual. The young architect involved in the private real estate business, M. Duțescu’s emblematic character, is the antagonistic/ complementary model of the characters or voices of Braniște and Novac’s literature: he constructs spaces of the individual’s capture in a logic of inhabitation/ ownership of real estate that they either cannot afford (Braniște) or reject (Novac).

The Beers of Evil: When Foam Becomes Poison

Abstract: The current review, interconnected with a previous analysis (Borsec mineral water baths: Spritzer/ blends/ spirits featured in the literature of the beginnings) lays on scanning the various ways in which the theme of beer consumption has been reflected in Romanian literature. Broadly, it encompasses three stages, not entirely distinct from one another: (a) the local prejudices, historically invalidated (as analysed by the 1848’s writers); (b) the realistic approach (which was mainly nurtured by members of Junimea society); and, finally (c) the somehow idyllic reconciliation (a dominant part of the work of authors in the XXth century). Among all three, the second one is, obviously, both of high interest and well-documented through examples and amendments, an approach that is closer to the real dynamics of the Romanian society and where authors like Iacob Negruzzi, Eminescu, Caragiale and others have shed light on the dark side of this seemingly benign behavior: hysteria, violence, suicide, crime, sexual abuse.

Panait Istrati, Chira Chiralina: inocență și inițiere

Panait Istrati, Kyra Kyralina: Innocence and Initiation

 

Abstract: Admired by many readers for his narrative talent, contested by others for some of his political opinions, Panait Istrati (1884 – 1935) had to be recognized as a gifted writer and an accomplished storyteller in France, and only after that in his native Romania. His debut short story Kyra Kyralina (1924) is one of his best works, offering the Western reader an Oriental setting (comparable to The Arabian Nights), an exquisite plot and amazing characters. Besides, the author reshapes the old structure of the picaresque novel and thus his hero’s journeys are given an obvious initiatory meaning. At the same time, his characters witness a complex process of evolution, their specific (and radical) innocence being the perfect way to confront all the world’s challenges and hardships and to affirm their own system of (moral) values.

Radu Stanca’s Autobiography

Abstract: The present study maps on an unexplored subject: Radu Stanca, in the sights of the former Security, in the context of the surveillance mechanisms, and of the persecutions exerted on the literary group of which he was a part. The point of the exhibition is a unique document, a holographic autobiography (3 pages) which the poet provided to the repressive organs in the 50s. The text, important also through omissions, not only through the revealed information, is analyzed by reconstructing the context on his literary, historical, familial, and political face, being put face to face with a series of archive data relating to the other members of the Circle (correspondence, informative notes from the CNSAS funds & so on).

The Tradition of Social Criticism in Scandinavian Literature

Autor: Ovio OLARU
Email: ovio.olaru@ulbsibiu.ro

Abstract: The present article delivers a short insight into the social roots of Scandinavian literature; the contribution discusses the intersections of literary production and political action in the Scandinavian peninsula, taking into account Swedish exceptionalism and the role of Sweden as importer of European culture and as flagbearer of political progressiveness, as well as the different reverberations of the pan-Nordic “Modern Breakthrough” in its preoccupation with “putting things up for debate.” The rich tradition of proletarian literature in Sweden, doubled by the openly Marxist positions of many canonical Scandinavian authors, create the prerequisites for a literary production whose most recent export, the crime fiction genre most commonly known as Scandinavian Noir, is one of the most political contemporary literary phenomena to have gained international renown.deneme bonusu

Abstract: This article aims to review the study Alone: The Life of Mihail Sebastian by Tatiana Niculescu. Compared to the other studies devoted to Sebastian, this publication brings as a novelty the focus of the research on the man Mihail Sebastian, but, of course, it also brings clarifications on his way of thinking and creation. Written in a clear and unaffected manner, this research brings into discussion episodes that marked the life of Sebastian and impeccably completes the critical image dedicated to him.

Viziunea și rolul lui Octavian C. Tăslăuanu în politica economică a României

The Vision and the Role Played by Octavian C. Tăslăuanu in Romanian Economic Policy

 

Abstract: Octavian C. Tăslăuanu was a leading Transylvanian figure, having primarily worked as a publicist and acting as chief-editor of Luceafărul (1902-1914, 1919-1920) and Transilvania (1907-1914) magazines. The current endeavour compiles a part of his economic and political focus and actions, initiated ever since 1904, as chronicles and articles chiefly published in Luceafărul, as well as a series of studies, either left unpublished, or published in different volumes or as press articles, between 1923-1937. Despite their relevance, they still remain relatively unknown to general audiences. Only a few researchers were able to relish in its originality and pertinence, the same ones who are familiar with the life and work of this great intellectual.

Săsesc fără sași? Studii de caz asupra instituției vecinătății, tradiției Fuga Lolelor și dansurilor săsești

Saxon Without Saxons? Case Studies on the Institution of Neighbourhood, the Tradition of the Escape of the Lole (Urzelnlauf) and the Saxon Dances

Abstract: In the context of the large-scale emigration of ethnic Germans from Romania, the ethnic German communities in Transylvania have implicitly lost traditions and customs, and the number of actors involved in these events has been considerably reduced. The present study is based on the results of a larger project realized between 2019 and 2022 in Transylvania. The research results, which were published on the project’s overarching theme – the impact of the migration of ethnic Germans from Transylvania on the Saxon intangible heritage – addressed specific issues like the neighborhood institution in the localities of the Hartibaci Valley, the Escape of the Lole (Urzelnlauf) tradition in Agnita, and the Saxon dances in young dance groups in Transylvania. The aim of this study is to synthesize the results of earlier research from the standpoint of the significance of their transfer to other entities and their new accents, as well as to realize a centralization of untapped research data and a comparative analysis from the viewpoint of the frameworks behind the revitalization of these traditions and the form in which they currently exist. Cultural transfers and exchanges have been made possible by interactions and influences between ethnic groups over their centuries-long common cohabitation. They were created in accordance with the sociohistorical setting, and they are still subject to change and transformation. It is precisely because of this borrowing, importing, and adapting to the new context that these elements of cultural heritage persist today and have the chance to be passed on to future generations.

Keywords: emigrare, etnicii germani din România, patrimoniu cultural, vecinatate, Fuga Lolelor, dansuri săsești.
