O poveste arhetipală de dragoste în eposul nuvelistic (în baza jurnalului oral)
Abstract
In this article, we propose for analysis and interpretation a ballad text with a wide sphere of circulation in the ethnological context of Bessarabia. It is about a ballad-oral diary, where an archetypal love story is foreshadowed in correlation with a series of peculiarities and defining features of the novelistic epic, having filiations with the narrative structures in the field of family life, but at the same time, and some affinities with the popular epic of a new type. The subject of the drama of a young woman shot due to unpredictable conditions, circulates both in verse and in prose, where the narrator in the pose of a “referent” is called upon to communicate a complexity of feelings, experiences, borderline existential situations, condensed in a real history, oriented towards revealing existential representations, which goes beyond the legendary framework of the narrated facts. In this order of ideas, the epic narrative leans towards an actant and functional model, in order to determine the relationships between lovers, husbands, parents and children.
