Mircea Vulcănescu, the Poet. „Perfectio secunda”
The study is devoted to the poetic work of Mircea Vulcănescu, leader of Mircea Eliade’s, Emil Cioran’s, and Constantin Noica’s generation, as scanty as it proves to be in the edition published in 2004 by the Prometeu Publishing House from Chişinău. The less than ten fully realized poems identifiable among others in the collection reveal a fully matured poet, in the highly prestigious lineage of Ion Barbu’s poetry, who nevertheless chose to ignore his literary possibilities. The study aims at an explanation, making use of some observations of Umberto Eco regarding Stephen Dedalus’ behaviour, so similar with that of Mircea Vulcănescu’s.
