Norman Manea est un écrivain roumain, prosateur et romancier, naturalisé aux Etats-Unis. Ses livres, traduits dans plus de vingt langues, s’apparentent par leur vision et leur thématique à ceux de Herta Müller, écrivain allemand d’origine roumaine, lauréate du prix Nobel en 2009, reflétant la persécution de l’individu sous un régime totalitaire. Juif roumain, Norman Manea a subi deux univers concentrationnaires qui se sont succédé en Roumanie au XXe siècle, le fascisme, pendant la deuxième guerre mondiale, et le communisme, instauré après l’invasion soviétique. Cette étude analyse le mode de transfiguration esthétique des traumas biographiques présentés dans quelques-uns des romans les plus connus de Norman Manea, Octombrie, ora opt (1981), Plicul negru (1986), Despre clovni (1997).
Norman Manea is a Romanian novelist, with residence in the United States. His books were translated in more than twenty languages; by themes and perspectives, they belong to the same field of the literary imaginary as the novels of Herta Müller (who was awarded the Nobel Prize for littérature in 2009 and whose books reflect the persecution of the individual during the communist régime). As a Romanian Jew, Norman Manea has lived under two dictatorial systems in the 20th century Romania: the fascism, during The Second World War, and the communism, after Russian invasion. The present study represents an analysis of the mode of esthetic transfiguration of the biographical traumas described in some of the most well known novels of Manea: Octombrie, ora opt (1981), Plicul negru (1986), Despre clovni (1997).
