Ion Pop - polivalența creatoare
Ion Pop – creative polyvalence

Summary/Abstract: Professor and scholar Ion Pop has reached the age of full synthesis at the auspicious time of an extraordinary intellectual and creative dynamics. His writing can now have, most certainly, a definitive edition, but the author has interwoven his life and text so deeply – much like in the title of one his criticism books – that he can find new and fresh motivation and resources to sacrifice himself in the poetical or critical text, with an extraordinary creative vitality. In an exercice of imagination and admiration, but also of rigour of interpretation, we shall talk about Ion Pop, the Member of the Academy, the professor, the flagship of the Echinox movement, the poet, essay writer and translator, all in all the spirit of completeness, coming from a mythical Transylvanian scholarly tradition – that of a refined culture and carefully uttered word. We shall examine two essential facets of the polyhedric personality of Ion Pop, so closely linked and interwoven that they cannot be firmly detached and, ultimately, we do not see it necessary to do it. We are talking about the poet and the critic, both valid and successful images on different levels of the literary scene.
