„Cuvinte risipite” pe altarul amintirii
Abstract
The present review is meant to emphasize Elena Dârțu’s mythopoetic universe, as it unfolds in its comprehensive volume entitled “Scattered Words”. Memory over oblivion, good over evil, light over darkness, a celebration of nature over suffocating urbanization, tradition over modern dismantling of individuals and society, global issues such as pollution, war, climate change are the main coordinates of this universe. While the poetic self-embarks into a journey of vivid introspection, a cluster of mystery unfolds and shapes the ineffable frailty of life. Keywords: Elena Dârțu; poetry; metaphor; memory; tradition; nature.
