Morphologies of Time. Traditional representations and hypermodern perspectives in Romania

Set in a space where the transcendent descends, according to the Romanian philosopher Lucian Blaga, time declines an orthodox morphology that provides a sort of a liturgical circularity, but also the fragility that protects it from the eschatological radicalism. Chronos or Saturn, time that is lost or recovered, deconstructed or spatialized chronologies, the Waters of the Saturday - are all landmarks in "rereading" the meanings of traditional time in relation to the syntax of our contemporary diaries.
