Abstract: | This essay maps heavily inflected narratives like Sadoveanu’s novels The Hetchet and Tales from Ancuta’s Inn to trace their ability to depart from the human voice and oral rhetoric to achieve a highly literate formulation and a literaly inflected text. The emphasis is on Sadoveanu’s imaginative and expressive rendering of thought that trigger the reader’s surrender to spectacle and the anecdotal, in short the means of manipulating reality and of modifying it from within the movement of folk tales and ballads. |
