Summary/Abstract: Always refusing poetic abstractization, the visions of Alexandru Musina are rather bent on the concrete; they feed on the fibers of the most acutely phenomenal reality. The call to the direct perception of the world is intertwined in many poems with the exposure of being to the translucent regime of dream, through which the elements of reality lose their everyday weight, are transferred to another ontic mode, of levitation, of the separation from the terrestrial, and of the ecstasy of living. Stylistically, Alexandru Musina’s epigram enjoys all the expressive benefits of the genre. We find here the lapidary drafting of moral drawing, the sober notation, the accurate capturing of specific characteristics, the quick emphasis on the revealing detail, and also the asceticism of notation. Moral judgment is not exposed ostentatiously, but rather suggested, allusively exposed in an expression retrenched in itself.
