Romance Languages 506 LITERATURE 506 Romance Languages LITERATURE By Mircea Anghelescu, Professor of Romanian Literature in the University of Bucharest 1. Works of reference and of general interest Last year’s main event in the field of reference literature must be the publication of: Dict¸ionarul esent¸ial al scriitorilor romaˆni, ed. M. Zaciu, M. Papahagi, and A. Sasu, Albatros, 920 pp., in collaboration with a team of 48 authors, mostly well-known academics. Elaborated by the group which since 1994 has been publishing the still unfinished Dict¸ionarul scriitorilor romaˆni, the dictionary benefits from first-hand information: the 332 entries, most of them on modern and contempo- rary authors, have a short introductory text briefly characterizing the author, and a brief biography; and each entry ends with a biblio- graphy of the author’s work and of its critical reception. Among those featured in the dictionary, there are 20th-c. writers who began their career as Romanian authors but then made a name for themselves in foreign literatures: Fondane, Ionescu, Istrati, Tzara. However, none of the old literary authors who wrote in other languages — Slavonic, Latin, or Greek — is included here. Several regional literary or cultural dictionaries have been published in this period. George Vulturescu, Cultura˘ ¸si literatura˘ ˆınt¸inuturile Sa˘tmarului: Dict¸ionar 1700–2000,Sa˘tma˘rean, Muzeului, 297 pp., presents the authors, periodicals, and literature-oriented institutions of the county of Satu- Mare, in the Hungarian, Ukrainian, and other languages, as well as in Romanian, together with biographical and bibliographical data and short characterizations. The dictionary favours the modern and contemporary epoch. Ovidiu Duna˘reanu, Scriitori de la Tomis, Con- stant¸a, Ex Ponto, 152 pp., contains the records of 37 authors living in or originating from Constant¸a county, and writing in Romanian, Turkish, or Tatar. The entries include biographical and biblio- graphical data, and also short excerpts from literary critics. Mircea Opris¸iu and Ion Maris¸, Mic dict¸ionar cu personalita˘¸ti care s-au na˘scut, au tra˘it¸ si au creat, ori au avut lega˘turi cu meleagurile sibiene, ii, Biblioteca Astra, 264 pp., covers letters H, I, and J, and contains over two hundred names of public personalities in Sibiu county (or persons having relations, sometimes very vague ones, with Sibiu county). Among those mentioned, some are authors who write in Romanian, German, or Hungarian. This is only a pre-print, disseminated in a small number of copies, after which the texts will be revised and the edition proper printed. Somewhat close to these dictionaries is Alexandru Firescu and Constantin Gheorghiu, Istoria Teatrului Nat¸ional din Craiova. Literature 507 1850–2000, Craiova, Aius, 595 pp., in which the chronological history of the theatre (in which a number of important writers played a part — Liviu Rebreanu, Emil Gıˆrleanu, Adolf de Herz, Adrian Maniu, Ion D. Sıˆrbu — whether as managing directors or literary secretaries) is complemented with a repertory of the theatres from 1842 on, with several indexes of actors, managing directors, stage directors, and so on, among them an index of authors and plays mentioned in the text. A. M. Brezuleanu et al., Bibliografia relat¸iilor literaturii romaˆne cu literaturile stra˘ineˆ ın periodice (1919–1944), iii, Saeculum I.O., 320 pp., is the sequel to a work whose first volume (generalities, problems of comparative literature, translation techniques, etc.) was published in 1997, while the second (concerning English-language literatures) came out in 1999. The volume comprises 9,312 annotated biblio- graphical entries on articles that deal with Germanic literatures, or on translations from Germanic literatures (German, Austrian, Dutch, etc., arranged according to the decimal classification) published in the Romanian press in the specified period; the volume is complete with an index of names. In direct relation to the lives of writers in the last two-and-a-half centuries stands Adrian Marino, Cenzuraˆ ın Romaˆnia, Craiova, Aius, 94 pp. The authors and their works are the main target of Marino’s investigation, against the background of cultural and political history, with special emphasis on the censorship of literary works under the Communist regime. A bibliography of the works — literary, historical and other — censored under the communist rule is Gıˆndirea interzisa˘. Scrieri cenzurateˆ ın Romaˆnia 1945–1989, ed. P. Caravia, pref. V. Caˆndea, Enciclopedica˘, 601 pp.; one also finds a list of manuscripts ‘appre- hended’ during arrests, secret police searches, and so on (568–81). This includes writing by, among others, Felix Aderca, Martha Bibescu, Lucian Blaga, Petru Dumitriu, Victor Eftimiu, Paul Goma, Ion Negoit¸escu, and Radu Gyr. Alexandru Popescu, Viena romaˆneasca˘. Un ghid sentimental, Fundat¸iei Culturale Romaˆne, 312 pp., offers information on the presence and professional activities of Romanians in Vienna down the centuries; many of them were writers and left behind descriptions of Austria’s capital city (from Dinicu Golescu to Titu Maiorescu and Eminescu). The information is backed by bibliographical sources. Mariana Net¸, Literature, Atmosphere and Society. A Semiotic Approach, Vienna, O¨ sterreichischen Gesellschaft fu¨r Semi- otik, 275 pp., discusses the pragmatics of atmosphere in literary texts as being a projection of character and a means of contextualizing it. Besides foreign authors, the critic discusses books by Romanian writers: Hanul Ancut¸ei by Mihail Sadoveanu, for example..

  • The Turn. Liviu Rebreanu's Hungarian Drama and Drama Fragments
    Acta Universitatis Sapientiae, Philologica, 3, 1 (2011) 79-88 The Turn. Liviu Rebreanu’s Hungarian Drama and Drama Fragments Béla BÍRÓ Sapientia University Department of Humanities [email protected] Abstract. The paper focuses on that moment of Liviu Rebreanu’s activity as a writer when his linguistic turn takes place. The author of Romanian nationality living in the Hungarian state before Trianon, who, according to the ambitions of the family wishing to rise, pursues his school studies in the Hungarian language, writes his first literary experiments (dramas, novel fragments and short stories) in Hungarian. However, while writing the drama fragment entitled Gigi (Ghighi), the writer, dismissed from the army and going through an existential crisis, continues to write in Romanian; through a few pages he translates the text started in Hungarian into Romanian, then he continues it exclusively in Romanian. But the change of the target public – due to significant social and cultural differences – does not make it possible for him to render the selected life material of autobiographical character as originally planned. The text remains in a fragmentary form. The adequate rendering of the autobiographical motifs chosen as the materials of the first works can take place only in his great novels (first of all in Ion and in The Forest of the Hanged [Pădurea spânzuraţilor]), as long as it is in these that the author and his public (implicitely the narrator of the novels and the fictitious readers) can really meet. Based on the reconsideration of the problem of form-content, the study follows the changes that the autobiographical motifs undergo in the communicative space of successive works, as well as the functional mechanisms of rendering.

    Relaţia Lucian Blaga – Nicolae Iorga. Între adulaţie şi negaţie sau o ,,încrucişare” de destine Mihaela BACALI Universitatea din București, Şcoala Doctorală a Facultăţii de Limbi și Literaturi Străine University of Bucharesc, Doctoral School of Faculty of Foreign Languages and Literatures Personal e-mail: [email protected] The Lucian Blaga – Nicolae Iorga relationship. Between adulation and negation, or a crossroad of destinies The present article represents an analysis of the relationship between two major Romanian writers, Lucian Blaga and Nicolae Iorga, quite friendly in its beginnings, but trasnformed in a strong opposition with the gradual assertion of the poet in the literary life of the period. Which were the causes of this radical change, and also which were its consequences ? The article aims at answering these two questions, which, as simple as they may seem, actually realize an overview of the whole cultural field of the Romanian interwar. Keywords: history of Romanian literature Romanian interwar period, Lucian Blaga, Nicolae Iorga friendship, admiration, hostility, contestation, polemics ,,Nici unul dintre scriitorii contemporani cu filosoful G. Bogdan-Duică sau Iorga, nu au reuşit să înţeleagă opera român nu a trăit şi nu a lucrat într-un climat atât de lui Blaga, sau au judecat-o în afara unor criterii estetice. puţin prielnic creaţiei, într-o accentuată stare tensională, Deşi nu totdeauna a răspuns public acestor mostre de determinată de mobilizarea tuturor resurselor de apărare ,,intoleranţă agresivă”, considerând că a răspunde este ale organismului pentru a face faţă agresiunii psihice sub demnitatea sa, Blaga a fost profund marcat de lipsa exercitate asupra sa”, afirmă I.
