Dan Mănucă şi „critica de reconsiderare”
Dan Mănucă and “reconsideration criticism”

Summary/Abstract: Dan Mănucă was a library-man, with firm and personal opinions, an opponent of common places, disclaiming the stylistic volutes and the café folklore. On a solid international basis, he practiced a reconsideration criticism, re-visiting alleged-classified cases. He was an honest commentator, with a cold analysis, on a Germanic pattern, developed in a columnist Romania, which was still missing the chroniclers’ gambol and cheerfulness. Dan Mănucă didn’t embrace the generationism criterion (partisan) and didn’t agree with the monstrosities of some literary histories (alienating from the subject). He was ideologically permeable. With a recuperating and contextualized effort, he staked on a general, Romanian literature, being attentive to the literary tectonics and the identity crises. This explains his interest in the “regionalist obsessions”, the imposed identities, the Moldavian-Soviet literature etc. – researched with extreme exactness, with polemic appetite, in a geo-political frame, and axiologically militating for the reunification of the Romanian culture.
