Analize micro-stilistice în poetica blagiană a materialității

Abstract

The present study aims to highlight the main occurrences of different material elements in Lucian Blaga’s lyrical work, by focusing on quantitative and micro-stylistic approaches. The quantitative research was made with the help of a digital instrument, Sketch Engine, a relevant tool for research in corpus linguistics and computational stylistics. This study encapsulates the explicit occurences of 22 materials from Lucian Blaga’s poems, categorized into three main groups: metallic materials (ferrous and non-ferrous), non-metallic materials (ceramic/telluric) and rocks and building materials. The analysed material elements are integrated in 317 micro-structures and contexts, the main aspect observed being the ratio between metaphorical and denotative regimes in which materials are included. Starting from distant reading, the article questions a possible cognitive dimension of Lucian Blaga’s poems, which is based on the author’s cultural and philosophical experience.
