Summary/Abstract: Ion Stratan is an unserialized, a difficult poet. He is the poet least adherent to eighties poetics, because he lacks the defining marks of the eighties spirit (realism, everyday life, objectualism), but uses lyrical humor, playful spirit, intertextuality. Considered "structural, a modernist poet", situated at the beginning in a "poetics of Mallarmée and Barbian origin", associated with "two epic masters" - Nichita Stănescu and Leonid Dimov -, close to Urmuz or Bacovia in certain creations, Ion Stratan will build a polyphonic vision that tries to express the inexpressible, to capture the essence, to draw the contours of absence, to imagine the unseen from a position hermetic, not devoid of playful inclination. In this sense, we propose that through this work to evoke the particularities of postmodernism through Stratan's impressive work.
