Verso un’altra modernità: I linguaggi urmuziani per una critica dell’umano
Towards Another Modernity: Urmuzian Languages for a Critique of the Human

Summary/Abstract: The aim of this article is to analyze the confluence of languages and the mixture of literary genres in Urmuz’s Bizarre Pages, a strongly original and innovative work, which does not follow the canon of modernity of the early twentieth century. Urmuz’s writing opts for a different modernity, which goes beyond not only the Romanian geographical boundaries (still linked to the rural world), but also the temporal boundaries of the West, bringing together the philosophical, scientific and legal discourse in order to parody them and to shape a different and altered discourse, hybrid and spurious, on the human.
