- Title
L'ALTERATION DE L'EXOTIQUE DANS LA PROSE DE MIRCEA ELIADE.
- Authors
INDRIEŞ, MAGDALENA
- Abstract
In this research we tried to demonstrate that Mircea Eliade altered the exotic picture in his books India and The Maharajah's Library. He realized this alteration in many ways, as he was not focused on reporting the real nature of the exotic, his presence in India aimed at the knowledge of India's religious beliefs and yoga practices. Eliade used the exotic landscape like a source for an extraordinary adventure of sensations and feelings. Sometimes, he exaggerated, because he wrote these books like reportages. Sometimes, the exotic background is left behind the realistic descriptions of Indian social, religious and economic realities, and other times the exotic turns into fantastic.
