SENZORIALUL CA VEHICUL SPRE IREALITATE ÎN OPERA LUI M. BLECHER
THE SENSORY AS THE VEHICLE TO REALITY IN M. BLECHER'S WORK

Summary/Abstract: One of the most intriguing Romanian cultural figures of all times, was Max Blecher, the young writer from Botoșani. In his brief and tragic life, the interwar Romanian writer wrote under the influence of his emblematic illness, the spinal tuberculosis. The affliction is to be found through Blecher`s literature, especially in his two last novels. What is so intriguing about Blecher`s writing, is the way he approaches his memories that form a very dense and alive inner world. The blecherian personages seem to start their travels into o space of inner worlds, beginning with a trigger found in the external, objective world. Usually, these triggers are represented by sensorial stimuli, as odors, colors, or textures, that are receiving a quality of vehicles between the two worlds. From this ground formed by the sensorial stimuli, Blecher`s heroes seem to plunge into a fictional version of reality, that the author calls the „Immediate Ireality”. This space, although an almost magical one, it is felt very real by Blecher’s personages, that rather choose the fictional space over the real one.
