Nichita STANESCU, philosophical investment by the word

Summary/Abstract: The work – Nichita Stănescu. Philosophical investment by the word - presents the poetic works of Nichita Stănescu, one of the most outstanding poets in modern Romanian literature, concentrating on the poems of philosophical meditation, because that is where the poet's concept of world and life, as well as of the role of poetry in the process of cognition spring from. The first characteristic of this kind of poetry is the link between the judgment ability and sensitivity, between reason and emotion. The second aspect of the analyses poetry is the focusing on the relation between thoughts and words, between words and the language typical only for a poet. The study is divided into five parts which present the poet's gnoseology, the drama of cognition and the pain of existence, time as light and the right to time, natural universe and abstract universe and at the same time the relation between philosophical poetry and philosophy of poetry. The poems and essays are studies side by side in order to discover the key for every foreseen phase of the philosophy of the world. Therefore, the ontological path is bipolar: the poet's gnoseology is reached through transcendence, when the poet, while observing the totality of universe, feels as its tiny part. The poet's verses emphasize the idea of the sphere as a form of universe, as a genetic code which is at the basis of the evolution of the living matter. In his poetry, Nichita Stănescu deciphers the problems of the world through words, trough their internal energies. If a notion has no counterpart in a word, the poet resorts to a no/word, creating a short poem out of it. Thus, the understanding of the universe is connected with the relation between notions and words. The poet assesses the hidden tensions, offering an elaborate work created with Love as food to our soul and our mind.
