“THE ROMANIAN POSTMODERNISM”: DICHOTOMIES UNDER DEBATE

Summary/Abstract: In this study we propose to debate some problems raised by the volume Romanian Postmodernism written by Mircea Cărtărescu: which is the motivation behind the binary approach of the critical text, a reproach brought by the majority of essayists; what are the dominants of the critical consciousness of the author; and, last but not least, how much of the postmodernism theorized in the volume can be applied in his creation, through the rationalimaginary dichotomy. We will bring into discussion the critical reception of the volume, but also some associations and differences with the other theories of postmodernism analysed in specialized literature.
