MIRCEA CĂRTĂRESCU: UN JURNAL DE VISE
Mircea Cărtărescu: A ”Diary” of Dreams

Summary/Abstract: This study tries to demonstrate that Mircea Cărtărescu used the dream as a narrative strategy. Discreetly camouflaged against the superficial look, the artificiality of dreams emerges precisely from the perfect blending of symbols that guide our interpretation towards the abyssal being, host to all sorts of pulsations and sensations which the individual tends to ignore or hide. As a fundamental form of textual existence, the dream is converted into a narrating strategy in Mircea Cărtărescu’s work, undertaking the role of a psychoanalytical inter-textual discourse that allows the access to the characters’ interiority. The dream factory is represented through the author’s diary, where we can find oneiric skeletons which embody themselves with the breath of creative imagination
