THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE IMAGINARY AND OBJECTOLOGY IN ZAHARIA STANCU'S POETRY

Summary/Abstract: The imaginary is formed as a cultural and personal imprint, shaped by the interaction between a person’s conscious and subconscious, reflecting a subjective perception of reality. It is filtered through individual experiences and enriched by imagination, leading to the development of a distinct imaginary chronotope. Consciousness can represent the world either directly, through perceptions, or indirectly, through memories and abstract images, reconstructing reality based on the creator’s subconscious and culture. Symbolic objects, central elements of the imaginary, mediate between concrete and experiential knowledge, generating complex imagistic structures. These are not merely analytical elements but expressive models that give meaning and coherence to perceived reality. Poetry represents a complex interaction between the poet and the objects in the external reality, surpassing their mere sensory representation. Unlike the perspective of theorists such as Charles Perrault, the objects in poetry become mediators between consciousness and the material world, facilitating a deeper understanding of existence. According to Bergson and Alison, objects, through their intrinsic qualities and the relationships between them, evoke aesthetic emotions and promote philosophical contemplation. In lyrical poetry, objects are treated symbolically and metaphorically, emphasizing subjective experiences and metaphysical reflections, while in narrative prose, they reflect complex identities and cultural and social themes.
