LIMBAJUL ARTISTIC ÎN POEZIA LUI LEONID DIMOV

Abstract

The article resides in the elucidation of the stylistic effects created by the eccentric vocabulary that Leonid Dimov uses in his poems. The analysis of the poems will be directed towards the mannered language; the valences of the sometimes archaic, sometimes neological, often invented lexicon will be explained. At the same time, the structure of the imaginary will be taken into account: the meaning of some symbols, a fact that will lead to a better knowledge of the poet’s creation in order to capitalize on contemporary literature. The research methods will be compiled starting from the tools appropriate to the analysis of language and the structure of the imaginary. The perspectives of mythological-archetypal, semiotic and other interpretation, imposed by the literature science of the last century, are most welcome. The actuality of the given approach is revealed by the need to valorize the local heritage of national and international importance. Leonid Dimov’s poetry has not been sufficiently exploited by historians and literary aestheticians from the Republic of Moldova, despite the fact that the poet originates from the historical south of Bessarabia.
