Eugen Simion – confesiune și ipostaze identitare în «cartea vorbită» – În ariergarda avangardei (2012)

Abstract

Published in 2012, În ariergarda avangardei [In the Rearguard of the Vanguard] displays an identity-focused discourse framed by the narrative interview formulae, within which the two voices in dialogue, Eugen Simion and Andrei Grigor, approach such issues as contemporary literature, Romanian culture, books and their authors. In its essence, the writing displays a confessing mechanism by means of which the two literary critics’ existences intermingle to generate a seducing confession about Life and Literature. In the end, Eugen Simion’s aesthetic credo is pointed out so as to express his critical perspective on literature itself.
