Poezia începuturilor sacre
The Poems of the Sacred Beginnings

Summary/Abstract: The article researches the poetic expressions of childhood in the texts of some contemporary Bessarabian authors, exponents of various creative generations (Irina Nechit, Andrei Țurcanu, Nicolae Popa, Artiom Oleacu, Artur Cojocaru, Ana Donțu). The author proposes a hermeneutic approach to poetic texts understood through the prism of Mircea Eliade’s conception of sacred time. Caused by the impulse of a nostalgia for the origins, similar to that experienced by the religious man towards the paradisiac preexistence, the act of recalling childhood restructures the image of reality. Poetic creation becomes, in this sense, a way of imaginary reanimation of the individual past with a refreshing impact on the traumas of consciousness, and an active mediator of the processes of representing the world and shaping the personal identity.
