| Rezumat: | The village of Oltenia, seen in its existential structures, lives beyond the Easter and Christmas holiday and beyond the ritualic complex of the main important moments of man’s life, like birth, marriage and death, also numerous magical belifs, practised along the years and adapted since then to many situations of the profane space. The magical practices and myths evoked by Marin Sorescu are integrated in the local people’s life like existential reasons based on an empirical therapeutics of nostrums and quack remedies, in which the peasant from Bulzeşti manifests an implicit faith. People’s sufferings can be treated with „medicines” like weeds, plants, victuals, with rubbings, called pulling in the countryside, snuffs in the ears, lit candles, but also with magical formulas in verse, accompanied by gestures, called spells which mostly have a thaumaturgic role. |
