PdM V – Mistretul lui Doinas, Melville si Ursul  

Thrown (Ţâpat) in

Zilele astea sarbatorim ziua Romaniei si-i un moment oportun sa sparg sirul de poeti strainezi si sa prezint o poezie romaneasca. Totusi n-o voi da cu poezii patriotice, fiindca feedback gen "bravo" sau "sa ne desteptam" ma lasa rece. Voi prezenta o poezie care-mi place. Si apropo, am urat Romaniei la multi ani in trecut.

doinasPoezia asta, descoperita recent, imi suna mai degraba a balada. Si spre bucuria mea, exista o traducere in engleza facuta de Andrei Bantas.

Tare ma bucur ca nu-i nevoie sa masacrez poemul cu o traducere de 5 minute, dat fiind ca cineva (mai precis, Andrei Bantas), a muncit deja sa faca una si-i buna.

[lista] [Mistretul cu colti de argint (original)] [The Silverfanged Boar (traducere)]

Balada asta-i superba. Imi aminteste de Moby Dick, Miorita, Ursul lui Faulkner si Batranul lui Hemingway si sunt surprins ca am descoperit-o numai cu cateva saptamani in urma. Iata cum ne este prezentata intr-unul din referatele de mai jos (regie live):

regielive-lirica

O gugumanie daca nu ma-nsel, dat fiind ca balada nu apartine genului liric. Referatul art-zone este facut cu cap (si coada):

Balada lui St. Aug. Doinas are ca tema cautarea absolutului. Conceput ca o structura dramatico-epico-lirica, textul este, in fond, o parabola, povestea alegoric-simbolica a unei existente superior-tragice. Sursele literare care au inspirat acest poem sunt mentionate chiar de catre autor: “Un deziderat urma ca o prelungire a interesului pe care l-am manifestat, inca din copilarie, fata de poeziile lirico-narative ale lui Bolintineanu, Eminescu, Cosbuc. Al doilea deziderat, mai ambitios, se hranea din lecturile mele franceze, care pe vremea aceea erau Baudelaire, Nerval, Verhaeren, Mallarmé, Valéry”.

Eu vad mai degraba asemanari cu vanatori descrise de autori englezi, cum ar fi balena lui Melville, ursul lui Faulkner sau pestoiul lui Hemingway (link-urile se deschid deasupra).

Stefan Augustin Doinas ocupa locul 12 in topul dezamagirilor turnatorilor, deconspirat fiind de Paunescu:

Deconspirat in Parlament in 2003, la un an dupa moartea sa si sinuciderea imediata a sotiei. Poetul Adrian Paunescu l-a descoperit in dosarul sau de urmarire ca turnator,  facind publica informatia in cadrul unei sedinte a Senatului. Demersul s-a intors impotriva lui Paunescu, caci mai multi scriitori l-au aparat post-mortem pe Doinas si au apreciat ca mai mult rau decit acesta a facut chiar cel care formal a fost victima sa. Doinas a facut inchisoare in perioada comunista, iar dupa 1989  s-a remarcat prin atitudinea anticomunista.

In poezia lui eu insa nu vad influente franceze (cel mult Nemo-ul lui Jules Verne). Vad mai degraba Moby Dick-ul lui Melville, ca sa nu mai vorbim de una bucata Miorita:

In Moby-Dick, Melville employs stylized language, symbolism, and metaphor to explore numerous complex themes. Through the main character's journey, the concepts of class and social status, good and evil, and the existence of gods are all examined as Ishmael speculates upon his personal beliefs and his place in the universe. The narrator's reflections, along with his descriptions of a sailor's life aboard a whaling ship, are woven into the narrative along with Shakespearean literary devices such as stage directions, extended soliloquies and asides. The book portrays insecurity that is still seen today when it comes to non-human beings along with the belief that these beings understand and act like humans. The story is based on the actual events around the whale-ship Essex, which was attacked by a sperm whale while at sea and sank.

Moby-Dick has been classified as American Romanticism. It was first published by Richard Bentley in London on October 18, 1851, in an expurgated three-volume edition titled The Whale, and weeks later as a single volume, by New York City publisher Harper and Brothers as Moby-Dick; or, The Whale on November 14, 1851. Although the book initially received mixed reviews, Moby-Dick is now considered part of the Western canon.

Sunt surprins ca nu a facut nimeni legatura cu Melville’s Moby Dick sau macar cu lucrarile conexe si cu o tematica similara. Am inclus in lista de clipuri mai jos Mistretul Timpilor (sic) Noi, cel Led Zeppelin cat si referinte la Hemingway, Melville si Faulkner.

Lucrez la o surpriza, dar nu-i gata inca!!!
