De la simpatetic la demoniac. Considerații asupra creatorului în filozofia lui Lucian Blaga și Liviu Rusu.

The aim of this essay is to analyse the aesthetical conceptions of Lucian Blaga and Liviu Rusu regarding the relationship between the creation and its creator. Beyond the shared philosophical influences of the two academics, their philosophic beliefs communicate their vision about art and the author. They develop their aesthetic universe starting from an imbalanced state that needs to be rebuilt through creation. Debating the origins of the artwork, placing those in a subconscious projection, in play or through an evolutive path, establishing the creative affliction, bypassing censorship through the artistic performance are only some of the features discussed in this paper. In an attempt to unravel both the converging and conflicting aspects of their works we believe to have retraced the inception of the Romanian art philosophy. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
