PAŞII RECLUZIUNII POETULUI
The poet’s stages of solitude

Summary/Abstract: Significant in the structure of the contemporary literary theory, the study of Diana Câmpan Utopias, dilemmas, solitudes – the thresholds of poetics in the 20th century (The Publishing House of the Romanian Academy, 2015) identifies – in the proliferative European poetry setting, and beyond, of that particular time period – the intensification of the function of an extremely loose creation paradigm, permissive up to the annulment of the specific “code”, almost distorted, eliminating any rigor and being open towards any horizon. Continuing the above-mentioned research, the present text highlights (in terms of the end of the 20th century and the beginning of the 21st century) the tendency of transcending the set of “thresholds” inventoried by Diana Câmpan which culminated with the one of the poet’s solitude, in favor of an aggressive collectivism, deliberately marked by the sign of the spiritual vulgarization, for an expansive surface of contemporary creation. The consequence, visible, cannot be other except the enclosing of the poetry attached to the old canon inside a “niche” of conservation, a “museological” one, in relation to a “niche”, equally limited, of the “uncompliant” reader. And the poet’s gesticulation in pursuit of the reader, at any cost, merely guides us to the illusion that accessibility without esthetic “program” would also affect something else other than the nonadherence to value of consumption.
