THE STAR OF THE BISON. THE SACRED AND THE FAIRYTALE
THE STAR OF THE BISON. THE SACRED AND THE FAIRYTALE

Summary/Abstract: Without having access to the past, the poetic instance senses and is doomed at the same time to an increasingly violent wave of death, and not only at a physical, organic level, but also implicitly at the level of creation, the latter having to follow an uninterrupted trajectory, without further interference or inadvertence. One of these acknowledgements is the work called Steaua Zimbrului – another kind of creation built fragment by fragment in prison on the finest and most insightful filament of the brain, a performance that only Valeriu Anania was truly capable of. A faithfiul observer of the work, Lucian Vasile Bâgiu notices in this context a sense of lightness on the side of the writer, a relentless separation from the past that represented ultimately the source of a fluid composition – a quite rare occurrence. Desiring to be an epistemic and focused dramatic work, Valeriu Anania seems to have hidden an intimate reluctance to follow the vein of mythological works that are more famous in the history of Romanian literature, such as those written by Lucian Blaga, for example, such as the myth of the Blind Man (t.n.) – mitul Orbului (1921) in the work entitled Zalmoxe or even the emperor of the Jews, Jesus Christ in the work entitled Disturbing the Water (t.n.) – Tulburarea apelor (1923).
