Istorie ?i sacralitate
¥16.27
Cartea v? propune spre lectur? o sum? de eseuri inedite, inspirate de la chestiuni cvasi-cotidiene sau rezultate din c?ut?ri la care ne ducem mai rar cu gândul. În plus, atât pentru condimentarea experien?ei de lectur?, cât mai ales pentru democratizarea conceptului de antropologie (în jurul c?ruia graviteaz? prozele din cuprins), seria de eseuri – fuzionând idei de psihologie, sociologie ori de filosofie – este punctat? (ini?ial, median ?i final) cu câte o proz? fic?ional? din seria interpret?rilor speculativ-antropologice de mituri ?i legende populare (aici fiind vizate baladele "Monastirea Arge?ului" ?i "Miori?a"), serie de autor început? odat? cu cartea "Întoarcerea fratelui risipitor" (Editura Europress, Bucure?ti, 2014). Volumul de fa?? aduce cititorului un amalgam de provoc?ri pentru minte ?i pentru inim?, într-un melanj pastelat, sus?inut pe tot parcursul de împletitura a trei filoane esen?iale: auto-ironie, umilin?? ?i duio?ie. De altfel, ideea de smerenie – atât cea subiectiv? cât ?i cea extins? la întreaga specie – constituie aici o reiterare definitorie. Parcurgerea c?r?ii se poate dovedi o experien?? deosebit? atât pentru cititorul pasionat de beletristic? cât ?i pentru cel atras de eseistica de idei. Profunzimile ?i perspectivele vor surprinde adesea.

Sunt un om modelat mai mult de literatur dect de prini i de coal, aa c practic nu-mi pot imagina cum a fi artat, n alt context social-familial, ce a fi devenit, cum a fi evoluat. Atras de lumea din cri. Poate i pentru c personajele din literatur sunt mai pregnante, mai coerente, mai plauzibile, cu noim i de neles, n ultim instan, iar nu indecise, confuze, lipsite de sens, ca n viaa obinuit. Cnd spun uneori c eu i fr studii superioare, rmas funcionar ori meteugar, a fi fost acelai om, cam la asta m refer. La faptul c pentru formarea mea decisive au fost crile, lecturile, lumea stilizat, nsmnat cu mesaj. Poate c abia prin asta m apropii de ali scribi...Exist suflet, m ntrebam azi, n parc, pe o slab ninsoare, dnd un semiocol lacului. Poate c nu exist, n sensul dat acestui cuvnt de cei care neag transcendentul. ns pentru unul ca mine sufletul exist, el este ceea ce a rmas din prinii mei i mi umple mie viaa, gndurile; ceea ce m face s fiu n comuniune cu ei.“ – Ion Lazu
