GHEORGHE CRĂCIUN: "EPURE CIUN: FOR LONGOS". DECONTEXTUALIZING AND RE-ONTOLOGIZING THE ARCHETYPAL PATTERN.

- Abstract
"Compunere cu paralele inegale" ("Composition With Unequal Parallels") Gheorghe Crăciun's second novel, explores the concept of "body as subject", as conceptualized by the phenomenological tradition. Craving an erotic utopia, Gheorghe Crăciun rewrites the Greek pastoral "Daphnis and Chloe", surpassing the original novel through the idyllically-overwhelming natural setting and the subtleness of perception. "Epure for Longos" becomes a prose poem investigating love with all its effects and sensorial conditionings, as well as an opulent text, concentrated on the violently-vivid bodily sensations of the lovers.
