A CURRENT THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE ON NARRATIVE CONSTRUCTION
A CURRENT THEORETICAL PERSPECTIVE ON NARRATIVE CONSTRUCTION

Summary/Abstract: The world created by Duiliu Zamfirescu is one of words and meaningful gestures. Their multitude forms the main language, which is in competition with the sound language, in both communication as well as significance. The fact that the writer challenges the reader to face the test of decoding the complex of documents, makes his work a cinematic one. The succession of gestural complexes, acts perceived in alternating development, gives the evolution of the characters a trajectory in time and space. The speech acts way of reading the novels included in the Comăneșteni saga, offers us multiple and varied pauses and the possibility to reflect upon the act of creation. In this section, we propose to explore them, in different ways and through different work tools, as appropriate, but respecting the framework established by the chosen analysis model, namely through three kinds of speech acts: locutionary acts, illocutionary acts and perlocutionary acts. Consequently, I dealt with two different ways of presenting the construction of the characters: through the traditional method of characterization, with psychological realities, subjected to investigation as such, and also from the perspective of illocutionary poetics, which follows the way in which the various fictional poses are constructed or induced in the text.
