Summary/Abstract: After outlining the mutations occurring in Svetlana Cârstean’s writing, the survey (focusing on different types of alterity) shows that her poetry has a stroboscopic effect. It creates a multidimensional representation and spurs the development of a special journey, that may find the joints between individuality and the world stage. Along this journey and throughout the meetings/ separations (not only as a splintered existence, but also as an attempt to resize the unknown by means of language), the poetic voice reveals mesmerizing ways of re-composing identities. Language is the basic tool used to substitute and reconstruct an assembly that, ontologically, measures distances that may split up and unify as well. As a consequence of the relational model (between content and content-holder), the experience of cruelty and suffering is transferred from the body to the level of language: the body becomes the communication channel of the dominant language.
