Sensul polifonic al spațiului urban chișinăuian în creația lui Sergiu Matei Nic
The polyphonic meaning of the Chișinău urban space in the creation of Sergiu Matei Nica

Summary/Abstract: The writer Sergiu Matei Nica (1917–1973), considered one of the most representativeBessarabian poets and publicists, configures in his texts a stratified, mobile Chișinău urban space froma heterogeneous contiuum of experiences, remembered by confrontation with major historical-socialor political traumas. The moving fictional radiography of Chișinău converges towards the creation ofnostalgic products of the mnemonics of multiple experiences and the understanding of urban space asa living space that shapes collective images. Multilocation by analogy with multivocality expresses inSergiu Matei Nica’s texts the reflective relationship with the city, the different experimentation dependingon the change of place identity and the complex historical: the interwar city of youthful memories,of the remembrance of bohemian life in all sectors of the capital, of the tragedy of June 28, 1941; the cityguarded by superhumans from poetry published in volumes, periodicals and unpublished, but also thecity of seminarian experience, the destroyed city, through the fire, of the bitterness of the irreparable,with a strong trace of alienation on return and the Soviet city with a severely changed soul from shortprose, the city of longing dreams of the convict at forced labor at the Danube-Black Sea Canal, of thefugitive who lives another inner existence from original newspaper pages.
