| Abstract: | The prose poem, as a 19th century literary species, has been the subject of concern for lots of writers, including Edgar Allan Poe, Arthur Rimbaud and Charles Baudelaire. Tending to add to the artistic message suggestive harmonies that separate literary language of the common one, the prose poem turns out to be a synthesis of often contradictory ideas which deflects the reader's expectations. Words are connected into a game of incidents, gaining semantic autonomy, and become signs, symbols that refer to another universe, unspeakable. Under Charles Baudelaire’s influence, Constantin Fantaneru, prolific writer since the 30's and whose work is revalorized in the last decade, is a creator of prose poems united in terms of imagery in the volume Narratives. Even if the unusual of his poems highlights a resemblance to Borges, the vision remains original and eclectic. The contingent becomes the frame of a time suspension that allows travels in illo tempore and opens to strange and absurd infiltration. The space is that of childhood, opened to miracles and surprising epiphanies. The literary motifs reveal immersion into a mythical past by local folklore sublimation, constituting therefore a truly national myth. |
