A cădea în/din timp. Viziune asupra antropologiei cioraniene
Falling in/from Time. A Vision upon Cioran’s Concept of Anthropology

Summary/Abstract: The present paper will present Emil Cioran’s anthropology retrospected to time. Falling in time represents the loss of eternity; falling out of time represents the lost of History; and falling in/out of time represents the race with time to acquire the authenticity of the human being. For Cioran, falling in time is equivalent with the lapse into sin, the moment Adam bitten from the apple represented the moment of our ”expulsion” in time, the moment we lost eternity. Falling out of time leads to a suspension of becoming, an involution, an inanimateness, an insensivity towards our own destiny. Falling in/out of time represents a redemption of the human nature in the guise of a competition: man races with time.
