FĂNUȘ NEAGU IN THE PROSE OF 1960S

Summary/Abstract: The sixth decade of XX century (1960 – 1970) is a difficult period for Romanian literature. The Communist Party tried to control all the arts, included the literature. The writers must o created a new “hero” according with the political objectives of the government, but some of them oppose such requirements. Their writing must be camouflaged under a dual language. The metonimia, the amalgam technique, the ambiguous writing are methods to circumvent censorship. Fănuș Neagu was a young writer who started to write in 1959 with the volume of short stories “Ningea în Bărăgan”. He opposed the system through his specific writing full of metaphors, by atypical characters and evocation of an isolated space, little touched by civilization.
