Between Zenon and Leda: notes on Marin Srescu's poetry

Marin Sorescu is one of the most important Romanian poets of the last half century, being translated into more than 30 languages; he was a complex personality, poet, essayist, playwright, artist, winner of numerous international awards. Our study is an attempt to decode the complex message of his work starting from concepts such as parody and re-writing (of some ancient myths), by means of well-balanced irony between the pressure of a Universal Library and the inquisitive spirit of a poet for whom the original roots of his own culture are landmarks and opportunities to analyze the universe of the contemporary world.
