| Abstract: | Sadoveanu remains, however, a magician ... who has come from historical times, guided by the star of this patient and dignified nation. But, he is also an earth-born with local Romanian tastes that blend in with the Eastern tastes. The finest flavor brings the story, Romanian-Nastratin ceremony, in which the hero-narrator takes his place among the others, because “every truth has its story, each story has its truth”. The “Myth” - Sadoveanu said – “keeps the soul of generations in eternity”. He discovers it in the rich local folklore and finds it - with multiple connotations - in Memphis and Thebes. The vein of wisdom gives myths life without death and wings to fly on all meridians of the earth. So many wisemen, who inhabited Sadoveanu’s work, acquired through initiation the superior and complete knowledge, soul and body’s harmony „in the light of ethical undisturbed values”. |
