This essay works within the methodology of myth criticism in order to analyze the literary treatment of snow in the poetry of Lorand Gaspar. In opposition to the Mediterranean climate, celebrated in numerous collections of his poetry, certain poems of his native Transylvania, which is evoked in memory, inscribe a symbolic constellation uniting snow, silence, and childhood. The analysis then centers on the archetypal association of blood and snow present in numerous texts, at times in a euphemized manner. Finally, we demonstrate that beneath the « writing in chalk » a writing in « white » words hiddenly refers to snow in order to reintroduce the memory of his native land into the heart of the poetry.
