Bogdan Bogdanović: Dissident in life, architecture and writing
No full textThe paper analyses selected works of Bogdan Bogdanović (1922- 2010). This Serbian architect, writer and Professor of Architecture at
the University of Belgrade, was the author of numerous monuments devoted to the victims of fascism in former Yugoslavia (1952-81). As the Mayor of Belgrade (1982-86) Bogdanović was a liberal member of the Yugoslav Communist Party and later, a strong opponent of Milošević’s regime. This paper argues that Bogdanović has always been both a dissident and an avant-garde proponent of architectural surrealism and its wider culture. Living with the belief that the vocation of an architect presupposes lifetime devotion to learning and experimentation, Bogdanović carried on with this attitude throughout his life. This approach, spiced up with playfulness and mystery as presented in his early volume Zaludna mistrija (The Futile Trowel) 1968, is the focus of this paper. In this unusual book the narratives are an intrinsic part of the architectural realm including design, drawings of various kinds, and the built form itself
Surrealist signatures of Bogdan Bogdanović
No full textThe main goal of the article is to explore relations of literature and architecture in works of Bogdan Bogdanović, the Serbian architect, writer, politician and dissident. The author focuses on surrealist influences that pervade Bogdanović’s work i.e. famous memorials of WWII, sketches, political and architectural essays and autobiographical narratives. Analyzing both aesthetic and ideological aspects of surrealist signatures etched into this ouvre, the author defines them as a subversive strategy aimed against the communist discourse of Yugoslavia as well as against the modernist discourse of postwar architecture
"Deux étoiles de la poésie du XIXe siècle : fragments traduits et comparés des créations de Iulia Hasdeu et de Ondine Valmore"
No full textInternational audienceIn this paper, the author aims to study, first of all, some French fragments of Iulia Hasdeu’s poetic creation, by means of underlining, in particular, the different comparison techniques that will appear in them and that result as well from a specific literary context. Those fragments will be an occasion to come back to some aspects of the personality of Iulia Hasdeu that will be linked to Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu, her father (who has widely contributed to the spread of Romanian literature and culture) and to her visibility at European level. Then, the author will present Ondine Valmore, another poetess, French, who was born at the same century, in order to point some possible similarities in their style and the themes they use. Once again, the analysis of some fragments of her work will require the highlighting of some outstanding aspects of the authors’ life, by referring to the persons close to her. The objective will be to contribute to testify to the importance of both of those poetesses on the socio-cultural scene at that time as well as their topicality.Dans cette intervention, l’auteur se propose d’étudier, dans un premier temps, certains fragments français de la création poétique de Iulia Hasdeu, en mettant en avant, en particulier, les différentes techniques de comparaison qui apparaîtront dans ceux-ci et qui résultent aussi d’un contexte littéraire spécifique. Ces fragments seront l’occasion de revenir sur des aspects de la personnalité de Iulia Hasdeu qui sera mise en lien avec Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu, son père (qui a largement contribué à l’essor de la littérature et de la culture roumaines) et à sa visibilité au niveau européen. Dans un second temps, l’auteur présentera Ondine Valmore, une autre poétesse, française, qui a éclos au même siècle, afin d’établir de possibles concordances aux niveaux du style employé et des thématiques abordées. À nouveau, l’analyse des fragments de création nécessitera la mise en avant des traits marquants de la vie de l’auteur, en faisant référence à ceux qui l’ont entourée. L’objectif sera de contribuer à témoigner de l’importance de ces deux poétesses dans le paysage socio-culturel de l’époque ainsi que de leur actualité

THE POST-COMMUNIST NOVEL OF TRANSITION AS REALISM OF TRANSITION. THEMATIC PRECEDENTS IN ROMANIAN AND EAST-CENTRAL EUROPEAN LITERATURE
No full textThe Post-Communist Novel of Transition as Realism of Transition. Thematic Precedents in Romanian and East-Central European Literature. The present study aims to analyze how certain narrative formulas circulate within the world literary system – one but unequal (Moretti 2004, WReC 2015) – starting from the case of the novel of post-communist transition, specific to many Eastern European literatures. The Romanian literature abounds in such novels, which take various forms according to the different literary paradigms from which they have emerged. Thus, we consider that post-communist Romanian literature, or at least its social-political regime of relevance, is a symptomatic case of what the authors of Combined and uneven development: Towards a new theory of world-literature (WReC) call “(semi-)peripheral irrealism”. According to this study, the literature produced in peripheries and semi-peripheries is often formally dominated by a series of practices identified as specific to modernism, which arise, determined by the condition of the semi-periphery, in the unique and uneven system of world-literature, in which fiction becomes the narration that mediates lived experience in the “palimpsestic, combinatory and contradictory ‘order’ of peripheral experience.” (WReC). Nevertheless, a new direction of contemporary prose is being traced recently in order to rethink/ reproblematize the past and the way it can be reflected in literature. A series of recent novels such as Bogdan Coșa’s How Close the Cold Rains Are (2020) and Mihai Duțescu’s Beech Sponges (2021), as well as others, give rise to a new aesthetic formula of the post-communist novel of transition through the ways in which they operate with realism. We therefore propose to investigate the recent history of the phenomenon of fictional representation of the Romanian transition in relation to similar phenomena in East-Central Europe, while also analyzing the specifics of “the realism of transition” (as we will call this new literary category, in the footsteps of Mihnea Bâlici).
Romanul tranziției post-comuniste românești ca realism al tranziției. Precedente tematice în literatura română și est-central europeană. Lucrarea de față își propune să analizeze modul în care anumite forme narative circulă în interiorul sistemului mondial literar – unul dar inegal (Moretti 2004, WReC 2015) – plecând de la cazul romanului tranziției postcomuniste, specific pentru multe dintre literaturile Europei de Est. Literatura română abundă de astfel de romane, acestea luând diverse forme, conform diferitelor paradigme literare din care au luat naștere. Noi argumentăm însă că literatura română postcomunistă, sau cel puțin regimul ei social-politic de relevanță, reprezintă un caz simptomatic pentru ceea ce autorii studiului Combined and uneven development: Towards a new theory of world-literature (WReC) numesc “irealism (semi-)periferic”. Conform studiului, literatura produsă în periferii și semiperiferii e adesea dominată formal de o serie de practici identificate drept specifice modernismului, ce iau naștere, determinate fiind de condiția semiperiferiei în sistemul unic și inegal al world literature, în care ficțiunea devine relatarea ce mediază experiența trăită în “«ordinea» palimpsestică, combinatorie și contradictorie a experienței periferice” (WReC). Cu toate acestea, în ultimii ani se trasează o nouă direcție a prozei române contemporane în vederea regândirii/ reproblematizării trecutului și a modului în care acesta poate fi reflectat literar. O serie de romane recente precum Cât de aproape sunt ploile reci (2020) de Bogdan Coșa sau Bureți de fag (2021) de Mihai Duțescu, dar și altele, dau naștere unei noi formule estetice a romanului tranziției postcomuniste prin modurile în care operează cu realismul. Ne propunem așadar să investigăm istoria recentă a fenomenului reprezentării ficționale a tranziției românești în relație cu fenomene similare din literaturile est-central europene, analizând totodată specificul “realismului tranziției” (așa cum vom numi această nouă categorie literară, pe urmele lui Mihnea Bâlici).

«Tată dragă... A D-Tale fiică respectuoasă și iubitoare, Lilica». Per una biografia di Iulia Hasdeu nel dialogo epistolare col padre
No full textThis paper analyzes the dense correspondence between the young Romanian poet Iulia Hasdeu, living with her mother in Paris for study purposes, and her father Bogdan Petriceicu, leading figure in the intellectual life of Romania in the second half of the 19th century. This massive epistolary, is presented as a compact whole and thus takes the form of an ongoing dialogue between a parent and her daughter, a document about which personal and subjective assessments can be made, but which has the undisputed merit of rendering a reality, beyond the more official aspects, in its domestic dimension
