Mircea Ciobanu, "Poetul", "Patimile" şi "Oaspetele cu spadă"

Abstract

The poetical ego, by means of the masks it uses (the knight, Manole, Faust, Lot and Job, etc.), is linked at the levels of an exemplary being. The panoply of the creative ego’s masks is set in order after the alchemist’s, the knight’s and Job’s masks, the three masks depicting the poetic art, the medievalism of Mircea Ciobanu’s poetry and the writer’s Job condition.
