Portretul sau povestirea ca metadiscurs
The Portrait or the story as metadiscourse

Summary/Abstract: The Portrait, a short story in Valeriu Anania’s volume Amintirile peregrinului apter [The Memories of the Wingless Pilgrim], is an impressive artistic demonstration of the idea (formulated in the context of quantum physics) that, in certain circumstances, human consciousness, as an extension of cosmic consciousness, has the power to mould and even create material reality according to its own will by the force of thought generated by intense emotion and desire, captured in word, image and the human cry sublimated in song.In a literary discourse that constitutes itself as metadiscourse – in which the word speaks about the word and about the possibilities of true, perfect interhuman communication, when the communion of feeling, thought, and desire may acquire demiurgic powers --, the author confers human proportions to the corresponding image of the primordial Logos.
