Summary/Abstract: This article by Ruxandra Cesereanu offers a detailed hermeneutic analysis of the poem "Ulise" by Benjamin Fondane, exploring the complex interplay between the poet's biography, philosophical influences, and the existential themes in the poem. Cesereanu's interpretation weaves together biographical elements of Fondane, comparisons to Arthur Rimbaud filtered through the philosophies of Søren Kierkegaard and Lev Shestov, and the portrayal of Ulysses as a wandering existentialist Jew. The article examines critical perspectives on the poem, particularly those of John Kenneth Hyde, Monique Jutrin, William Kluback, Jad Hatem, Olivier Salazar-Ferrer, and Gisèle Vanhese, highlighting the poem's philosophical, existential, and poetic dimensions.
