| Summary: | The long detours to reach the self mentioned in “Cordial polemics” represented for the writer possibilities of initiation in solitude. The alternative to the analysis of the initiation in loneliness seems to be Philippe Lejeune's proposal in the volume “Autobiographical Pact”. Thus, we can identify in Paler's prose instinctive, assumed, imposed or searched pacts. In his descriptions, confessions or meditations, the writer recalls the years of his childhood, always confronting the past with the present, convinced that this is the only way towards a better understanding of the present. By preserving his vital connection with “at home” in an emotional manner, full of nostalgia, he actually dooms himself to loneliness. Through the characters’ ample angle, for whom progress means “less loneliness” (“Diary at the Sea side”) Octavian Paler finds himself, in turns, in the three states of the solitary adventurer: the nostalgic, disillusioned viewer, the moralist and aesthete observer, the involved critical witness. |
