Félélet
￥32.62
40 éves lettem. Bibliai értelemben – ha egy emberéletet 80 esztend?ben mérünk – eljutottam az élet felére. Ezért a cím: Félélet. 6 k?tet, kisregények sorozata után elgondolkodtam, miért is írok, hogyan jutottam el addig a pontig, amikor tollat vettem a kezembe. Végül ráj?ttem, és magam is meglep?dtem, hogy az els? nyomtatásban megjelent írásom 1996-ból való, ha innen indulok, akkor az életem felében írtam. Mindenfélét: verset, cikket, naplót, t?rténeteket. Ezekb?l állt ?ssze ez, az életem els? felét ?sszegz? k?tet. Nem változtattam a rég leírt szavakon, gondolatokon, akkor és ott jók voltak, ma is megfelelnek. Sokan kísértek az úton. K?sz?net jár mindazoknak, akiket illet, hogy eddig eljutottam. Indulok tovább. 2017. október 13. Csüll?g Ferenc

Marian Dr?ghici scrie o poezie cerebral?, fragmentar?, ironic? ?i autoironic?, din care nu lipsesc ?ns? m?rcile unui vizionarism ?bine temperat“. De?i poezia din Lumin?, ?ncet e mai degrab? geometric?, ?n care, totu?i, abund? artele poetice, se poate remarca aici – cum sus?ine ?i criticul literar Dan Cristea – ??mbinarea dintre religia poeziei ?i poezia religiei“.

Nici un prozator romn nu a trit, dup 1960, o evoluie att de rapid. Succesul fulgertor al lui Nicolae Breban nu poate i nici nu trebuie s fie judecat independent de momentul 1965 al literaturii tinere. O generaie de povestitori i de poei avea nevoie de un adevrat romancier pentru a-i consacra, aa cum se cuvine, strlucirea.

De ce o carte despre via?a ?i opera lui Vasile Voiculescu?R?spunsul poate fi complex ?i nuan?at. Pe de o parte, acumularea unei cantit??i mari de contribu?ii biografice ?i critice a impus reevaluarea lor. Pe de alt? parte, chiar varietatea ?i bog??ia informa?iilor pun sub semnul ?ndoielii destule afirma?ii anterioare. Dincolo de aceste motive r?m?ne faptul c? Vasile Voiculescu a fost un erudit cu o g?ndire profund?, un nemuritor. Personalitatea sa multilateral? trebuie rea?ezat? ?n actualitate. Nu din retoric? trufa?? repet?m ?ntrebarea, modific?nd-o pu?in: de ce o monografie Voiculescu ?n epoca demitiz?rilor? ?nainte de a da alte r?spunsuri, m?rturisim c? suntem preocupa?i de felul ?n care va fi receptat?. Probabil c? voiculescologii consacra?i vor fi curio?i s? afle cum ?l prezint? Gheorghe Postelnicu din P?rscov pe Vasile Voiculescu, ilustrul s?u ?nainta? ?i cons?tean. Sper?m s? constate c? nu au ?n fa?? o carte de celebrare, de?i nu am spune adev?rul dac? nu am recunoa?te c? ?n perioada document?rii am fost ?nso?i?i de o sensibilitate admirativ?.
