Abstract

ANDREI ȚURCANU'S POETRY, INTERPRETED ONTOLOGICALLY AS A RESPONSE TO MIHAI EMINESCU’S POEM AN ODE (IN CLASSICAL METER) Beyond the seemingly eclectic amalgam of elements circumscribed to postmodernism (real, mythical, bookish, autobiographical, etc.), Andrei Ţurcanu's poetry shines a light on the the image of a creator animated by interrogative challenges to both eternal being and incorporalization. Andrei Ţurcanu's poems’ use of an ontological meditation on the temptation to overcome an existential rupture by converting it to an unquestioned absolute creates a sui-generis relation to the initiatory rites of “learning from death” in Eminescu’s An Ode (in Classical Meter). Ţurcanu's poems also reconfigure the core elements of An Ode in order to reach the existential dimension at its heart. This reinterpretation of Eminescu's tragic scenario uses various recombinations of myths, academic interpretations, and real-life experiences to ontologically suggest an adventure of the soul reinventing itself. Andrei Țurcanu’s works can thus by seen as a response to An Ode, one that subtly strives to “complete” Eminescu’s poem by applying a modern lens to the symbolic visions of the original text. Keywords: intrapoetic relationships, ontological dialogue, reinterpretation, revisionism, tragic experience, etc.
