This essay is based on a wider research of the Science Fiction and Fantasy genres and of the forms of the Fantasy genre, as they are reflected in the Romanian prose in the second half of the 20th ...century. The creators of autonomous fictional (invented) worlds within the Romanian literature have very rarely been the subject of systematic investigations so far. Their works, relatively numerous and aesthetically uneven, crammed under the umbrella of the so-called Fantastic or Baroque literature, were sometimes analyzed with improvised instruments, in a manner not always compatible with their true nature. These texts have almost always been annexed to the adjacent provinces of more or less related genres such as the Science Fiction, the Fantastic, the Surrealism, the Oneiric, the Political Allegory, the Utopia and the Dystopia, almost never getting a proper label to reflect their nature. I will insist in this essay on the relationships between two related genres, Fantasy and Science Fiction, and on some delimitations within the Fantasy genre, between High Fantasy and Low Fantasy.
The present article is a fragment of a more elaborate study that aims to cover the evolution of the Romanian narrative fiction of the last two decades – between traditional models, international ...influences and the forces of the market. This article puts forward several remarks on the evolution of the Italian narrative fiction of the last 20 years, focusing on three popular and widespread forms: the historical novel, the autofiction and the proliferation of the short story. Examples are given for each of the three forms, while the presentation is framed by the critical observations on the given phenomena of the Italian literary historian Giulio Ferroni. The article also tries to answer, through comparison and appeal to the wider context, some relevant questions for the contemporary Romanian literary critics.
