PAGES OF BIOGRAPHIC LITERATURE IN THE VOLUME OF OCTAVIAN PALER LIFE AS A BULLFIGHT

Summary/Abstract: The volume Life as a Bullfight is almost an autobiographical novel, of the author's self-definition and spiritual self-definition and contains important biographical elements in the evolution of the personality of the writer Octavian Paler and it is precisely this that makes it more interesting. This book, as well as almost all the work of the author, contains disturbing pages about the myth of village and childhood, built on the edge of the essay. It is an important book in his becoming a writer because here are mentioned the significant moments that have put him face to face with literature, for the experiences of Octavian Paler's initiation in literature are ways in which destiny makes his presence felt. Octavian Paler's confession in this autobiographical volume focuses more on the development of an epic thread of memory, the circumstances in which facts and people have one way or another marked his existence. Life as a Bullfight is a dense book, strongly motivated, and because epic fiction and ideas linking the texture of the text appear biographically conditioned. The author is at that moment of his life where he can look somewhat detached at the stages of his becoming, deformed only by the passage of time and his sensitivity contaminated by culture.
