Poetry and Ritual

Summary/Abstract: In 2020, “the year of the pandemic,” Amalia Brăescu published her doctoral thesis—a remarkable essay on the creator of the Păltiniș phenomenon: Constantin Noica – Ontology of National Identity and the European Cultural Model. That same year, she also released two poetry volumes, Poezie de carbon (Art Creativ Publishing) and Noxe și doxe (Brumar Publishing). The difference between her debut book, Corecturi (2016), and the poems in these new collections is almost negligible. Amalia Brăescu writes cerebral, cryptic, surrealist poetry with a distinct, tightly controlled musicality—peculiar due to the rhymes that occasionally fragment the verses, making them flow like a mountain river whose bed is filled with boulders.
