Visages de l’humanité dans la prose de Panait Istrati

Abstract

No matter which is the real geographic space to serve as inspiration topos, the writer Panait
Istrati (belonging both to the French as well as to the Romanian literature) creates a symbolical fictional
universe rooted in a deep feeling of love and faith. Thus, the topoi of Tsatsa Minnka, Kyra Kyralina or
Nerrantsoula turn into genuine inner landscapes enhancing the symbolical milieu of the parable narrative
focusing teh human condition.
