Revizionismul, o „anti-ideologie” postdecembristă a „recuperării est-etice” a valorilor. De la mirajul integraţionist la sindromul auto-distructiv în discursul critic post-totalitar românesc*

Abstract

The criteria motivating the European orientation of national literatures generate different significations gathered around the larger concept of “Romanian cultural identity” which focuses on specific cultural
units, sometimes too abstract, such as cultural satellite vs European orientation, cultural identity non-value vs myth of the national writer, “cultural patriotism” vs the conscience of the marginal. From this
perspective, the analysis asks for an axiological pattern used to objectively cope with the Romanian theories enhancing the identity issue, within the larger European process of aesthetic validation by means of which our culture can make its own voice heard. Within this context, G. Calinescu’s case becomes representative for the self-destructive cultural syndrome choosing to demolish the main literary values in the light of the “revisionist East-ethic” drive.
