Vizionarism în poezia lui Nichita Stănescu.

Visionary literature is a topic that has only been explored to a very small extent and only tangentially. Extensive studies, theorization, definitions and classifications are necessary to fully understand the phenomenon. It has often beensaid that Nichita Stănescu’s poetry is a visionary poetry, but no dedicated study has been conducted. This article identifies the types of visionary corresponding to the lyrical stages. Edenic visionary is a characteristic of the early poetry collection and it refers to a universe that recalls the purity, harmony, and perfection of beginnings.Gnostic visionary is found in the lyrical maturity stage when the lyrical self becomes reflective and aware of the passing of time. In the final stage, metaphysical visionary is observed in the self’s retreat into itself and the exploration of the universe beyond reality. All of these fall under the umbrella of ontological visionary because Stănescu’s poetry is concerned with defining being and existence, the relationships between things and the processes that control existence.
