Adriana Carina Duban, „Pescarii“ – viaţa unei comunităţi necunoscute
The Fishermen – Unknown Community Life
The present study attempts to offer an in-depth analysis of the novel Pescarii (Fishermen) by Carol Ardeleanu, a literary work about the life of an authentic community living in Vâlcov, near Tulcea, in Dobrogea. The author presents the poor life and harsh work of an unknown yet specifically Romanian community in the interwar period of time waiting for the cynegetic adventure, the change, and the illusion of action in the delta.
The study also deals with the description of nature in Vâlcov, and the presentation of a dramatic moment lived by the fishermen of Lipova, an environment that served as source of inspiration for the author’s literary work and the creation of his powerful and unforgettable characters living in Dobrogea.
