| Abstract: | The folk tale books gave the satisfaction of discovering reflections and thoughts on life, but the biggest benefit was that of understanding the world. Not the ancient world, but the one which existed and was retold omitting details in order to embellish the stories and constantly enrich the text. The novel encompasses various episodes, with artistic rationales and various feelings, becoming in itself a portative library: inside, the reader can find ancient history, but mostly adventure and the escape from reality into a perfect world, or even the escape which falls prey to the horror of being attacked by never before seen creatures and ends in experiencing the delights of their defeat (for example, in ‘Alexandria’ there were fights with carnivorous birds of prey, ogres and barbarians with six hands and six feet). The passage from reality to fiction and vice versa is what mostly attracts the audience, all these transformations happening in true Romanian spirit. |
