FROM BIOGRAPHY TO THE WORKS OF OCTAVIAN PALER

Summary/Abstract: This article provides an image of the life and work of the writer Octavian Paler, who enjoys even after death a great consideration among the reading public. Given the complexity of the personality of the writer Octavian, we considered it necessary but also interesting to bring to the fore the personal and literary events in his life. The realization of an analytical research on the life and work of this writer is summarized in a portrait of the writer Octavian Paler, after a labyrinthine journey of his biography and work. It emerges from the lights and shadows of his own life and his writings. The author of the Cordial Polemics, as it was already mentioned, is characterized by the Latin clarity, the clearness of reflection, the homogenity of the discourse, as well as by the steadiness he displays while trying to fulfil his objectives. Octavian Paler is characterized by an impulse of communication, as well as by the trust in words. He is actually a “Don Quixote” of the need to express himself by a harsh criticism, by the oratorical eloquence and the pathos of argumentations and persuasion assumed primarily as a moral state of existence. The writer, the essayist, the journalist Octavian Paler finally remains a moralist intransigent at the social level, a skilled rhetor, doubled by a subtle stylist at the literary level, an incurable skeptic and a structural pessimist at the level of personal psychology.
