Operaționalizarea experimentului în critica literară românească

2021

This study has a two-fold structure, in its first part exploring various models of experimental literature, proposed by researchers such as Gerald Prince and Warren Motte, as well as theoretical attempts to define and analyze experimental literature in Romania. The second part focuses on the quantitative analysis of keywords related to “the experimental” found in literary histories of Romanian literature authored by E. Lovinescu, G. Călinescu, Nicolae Manolescu, and Mihai Iovănel, as well as The General Dictionary of Romanian Literature and The Chronological Dictionary of the Romanian Novel. By simply searching several pointedly chosen terms in the corpus, a cartography of what is considere…

Geofeminism in Romanian Fiction. An Introduction

2020

The relationship established between geography, literature, the study of space, and gender studies is one that generates increased knowledge regarding perspectives on literary works. From this vantage point, in the present essay we offer an analysis of several Romanian novels, temporally close to the beginnings of literature in Romania, from a geofeminist perspective, a hybrid concept which aids the mapping of literary territories. The maps thus resulted from this type of analysis offer a much more complex positioning within the European cultural space, even more so if one considers the surfacing of real historical elements, inserted into the novels analysed, which stand as samples for the …

Critica ideologică în epoca limbajului administrativ de stânga: o istorie New Left a literaturii române contemporane

2021

As Teodora Dumitru (2016) has convincingly argued in the case of Romanian literary critic Eugen Lovinescu, the evaluation of literature he proposed along his History of Contemporary Romanian Literature (1926-1929) was guided by a solid liberal and bourgeois drive. Claiming the autonomy of the aesthetics, Lovinescu actually built an urban bourgeois literary canon in his effort to systematize the local literary material. Almost 100 years later, Mihai Iovănel’s History of Contemporary Romanian Literature: 1990-2020 (2021) proceeds to a similar effort, but through the lens of New Left critical theory. Both Lovinescu and Iovănel use what I call the administrative language of their time: Lovinesc…

Organophotoredox 1,6-Addition of 3,4-Dihydroquinoxalin-2-ones topara-Quinone Methides Using Visible Light

2023

An organophotoredox 1,6-radical addition of 3,4-dihidroquinoxalin-2-ones to para-quinone methides catalyzed by Fukuzumi's photocatalyst is described under the irradiation of a HP Single LED (455 nm). The corresponding 1,1-diaryl compounds bearing a dihydroquinoxalin-2-one moiety (20 examples) are obtained with good to excellent yields under mild reaction conditions. Several experiments have been carried out in order to propose a reaction mechanism.
