Discursul eseistic, generarea procesului izotopic
Essay discourse, generation of isotopic process

Summary/Abstract: Focused on the generation of isotopic process throuought the essay discourse, the present approach is structured on reading units differentiated by allotopy or isotopic break, a phenomenon oriented towards the critic reception based on the conceptual configuration expressed in the act of reading by the textual meaning. By pointing out the structuring conditions of isotopy, we have argued for poliisotopy as a form of plural reading. The units of the text may generate isotopies engaged in the configuration of complete isotopic reading levels, followed by the re-reading produced by the allotropy at the end of the message. Stanescu’s essayistic discourse is produced on the basis of a rhetoric polysemy, a situation that confirms the definition of (meta)poetic language characterized through polysemantic tendency to infinity of meanings and an ambiguity of poetic meaning. In addition to procedures like deviation and the compression of meaning, we have focused on the mechanisms that are specific to the poetic metalanguage (as manifested in the essay discourse), such as: the unusualness (Svlovski), ambiguity (Empson), intertextuallity (Kristeva, Barthes, Zumthor, Riffaterre, Culler), deconstruction. For instance, for J. Culler, intertextuality operates as a theory of the conditions of meaning, by an interference of codes, which is a principle we have also employed throughout our research on Stanescu’s essays.
