IOAN POPOVICI-BĂNĂȚEANUL: IDENTITATE, NAȚIONAL, TRANSNAȚIONAL. IMAGOTIPURI ȘI IMAGINAR SOCIAL
(Editura USM, 2023) Badea, Delia
Living in the Banat county, which belonged to the Austro-Hungarian Empire, during a regime which seriously influenced the Banat Romanians’ status, Ioan Popovici wrote a prose where the relationship with the other is not only interesting, but also complicated. As a result, the frontiers between identity and national, on the one hand, nationalism and xenophoby, on the other hand, are often fragile. Starting from a biography characterized by uprootedness, exclusions and alienations, our approach aims to present the mechanisms which have led to the creation of the social imaginary in Ioan Popovici- Bănățeanul’s prose, caused by various geopolitical, cultural or mentality circumstances, constantly observed by the narrative discourse.
