The Act of Reading as Aesthetic Experience in the Context of the Romanian Literature

Author(s): Leontina Copaciu
Subject(s): Literary Texts
Published by: Editura Tracus Arte
Keywords: reading, experience, aestheticization, individuation, physicality

Summary/Abstract: The existential dimension, practice of literature, different types of reading and various aesthetic experiences caused by the act of reading, will be demonstrated on three subjective, Romanian novels (Adela – Garabet Ibrăileanu and Ioana – Anton Holban). There are emphasized the types of reading re-found in the Romanian characters: the masculine ones (Emil Codrescu, Sandu) and feminines (Adela, Ioana). The differences lie in the variety of reading texts, in regard to the text reading and the behaviour’s attitude established from textual meaning, connected, then to the erotic experience. The relationship inside the aesthetic Romanesque is recoverable in the communication between Literary Work and The Reader.
