| Rezumat: | Octavian Paler’s essays celebrate culture, as a way of existence in the world, through an obvious inclination to the intellectual speculation and the righteous aspiration, through meditative solitude and solidary conscience, through memory, lucidity and rigor. Through the essay Paler seems to assume the myths and the essential problems of the entire world. He projects the myths into his inner world, contaminating them with his existential obsessions through which he assigns them his own judgments. Paler’s qualities as an essayist are also visible in the volume Scrisori imaginare (Imaginary Letters), that sums up a series of fictitious letters, messages addressed to some of Europe’s elected figures, such as Miguel de Unamuno, Albert Camus, Erasmus of Rotterdam, Franz Kafka, Marcel Proust, etc., to whom history mirrored itself differently. In this writing the imaginary blends with the reality, becoming just a pretext for exposing the author’s soul. |
