One thought on “Le Roman de l'adolescent myope”

1. Romanul surprinde indignarea i angoasa f r preget a adolescentului interbelic cu preocup ri intelectuale Stau i m ntreb, ca mul i al ii de altfel, ce anume i face pe adolescen i ori pe oameni indigna i C ci indignarea lui Eliade, lupta sa metafizic mpotriva l untrului s u nu are o cauza mpotriva cui lans m acest sentiment de revolt mpotriva vie ii Dar ce dorim noi de la via Sau ce dore te via a de la noi Oricum, confesiunea este de interes maxim, deoarece nu e nici estetic i nici liric , autorul [...]

2. Minunata carte a adolescentei mele Am iubit mansarda lui Eliade ca si cum ar fi fost a mea Nu mi cunosc vecinii De ce sa i cunosc Niciunul nu are o fiica Nu, asta nu poate fi scris in roman Voi marturisi, acolo, ca imi dispretuiesc vecinii Mansarda Nu mi a placut sa am prieteni N am vrut sa mi descopar sufletul adolescentilor livizi si melancolici Mandria ca port in mine o taina pe care n o ghiceste nimeni mi ajungea Noiembrie Iar anul meu e sterp de inutile efervescente sentimentale si e gol de [...]

4. I don t want to be mediocre, this is the fear of my soul and my body said Mircea Eliade in on of his journals This novel prove again that he overpass this fear and put together a sum of feelings that he shape them into a diamond The novel is gorgeous, I recommend this to every teenager that has dilemmas and problems passing trough this age Excellent book.

6. I tried I really did But I got through Catcher in the Rye, and this is worse I cannot identify with anything except He makes a plan to study or do something and gives it up to start reading interesting books Perfect I do that all the time But you can t make a book out of that, and it shows up so little that it s quite negligible I stopped just before the halfway point, but already by that point he d in no particular order Made a girl cry by trying to kiss her and then saying, I was just checkin [...]

7. This rediscovered Romanian classic is what you might get if a teenage Adrian Mole was studying for a philosophy degree Before picking this up I knew of Mircea Eliade as a commentator on world religions I didn t realize he also wrote a number of novels This is particularly special in that it s a lost manuscript he wrote as a teenager it was only discovered in a Bucharest attic after his death in the 1980s The novel s chief detriments the repetitive nature of the sections about his schooling, and [...]

8. This is one of the novels I should have read several years ago, in my early youth If I would have read it when I had 17 or 18 years old I would have been better prepared for the difficult years that followed I consider all teenagers must read it in order to learn how Eliade and his generation has passed through this difficult years For me it was a model and I followed it even if I did not read it I just picked several alternate routes before finally deciding to go a similar path of Eliade s gene [...]

9. Crap, crap and even crap What is this book supposed to teach high school freshmen That whoring around, smoking and repeatedly failing math is supposed to make you some sort of tortured intellectual Yeah, I don t think so I think it s one of the worst books on my school reading list.

10. As suferi mai mult daca as fi respins Iar eu vreau sa inving intotdeauna De aceea ma arat retras, dispretuitor Nadajduiesc intr un timp cand munca ma va inalta destul ca sa atrag privirile Suferintele mele pana atunci nu le va cunoaste nimeni Aceasta e deosebirea intre mine si el ca unul viseaza o fericire si o asteapta, iar altul se chinuie s o ajunga fata sa se gandeasca asupra ei Unde imi era hotararea de a ma arata lumii asa cum sunt, constient de superioritatea mea si de nerozia contemporan [...]

11. Am crezut ca nu se mai termina A fost ok, mai ok decat celelalte carti scrise de Eliade, dar nici asta nu m a impresionat desi toata lumea il lauda si romanul, si autorul.

12. A very unusual book about a teenager aspiring to excel mediocrity by sacrificing his happiness Although at first seeming weak and lacking will power, as we watch the main character grow up he improves his self control, finding the strength in himself to do what he was meant to do push his limits until becoming an accomplished man We understand that people are destined to do something really meaningful with their lives, but very few choose this way, and those who do can only achieve success by gi [...]

18. El protagonista de La novela del adolescente miope que no es otro que el propio Mircea Eliade quiere escribir una novela titulada precisamente La novela del adolescente miope que le har famoso, le proporcionar la admiraci n de todos los que le rodean especialmente sus profesores y le ahorrar el apuro y el fastidio de tener que pasar por los ex menes del instituto Pero antes de sentarse a escribir esta novela, decide escribir un diario que le servir para coger apuntes en forma de borrador que des [...]

19. Istoria religiilor este un proiect pe care il aman de cativa ani buni Il cunosc pe Eliade din liceu, cu La tiganci, dar nu m a fascinat pe vremea aceea Nu cu mult timp in urma,sora mea mi a recomandat Romanul adolescentului miop Exceptional Primii ani de scoala, primele iubiri si preocupari metafizice, primele suferinte si framantari O lectura deosebit de placuta si tulburatoare pot spune, devii nostalgic gandindu te la adolescenta, la visele ce le ai avut, vorbele, gandurile, prieteniile Regret [...]

20. The first time I read this in English and at an age where I can mock the self centred worldview of teenagers Previously, I was a teenager myself and thought it was something to be taken seriously see, even the great Eliade found school life difficult Of course, I now think it is fictional than autobiographical, as it s easy to see the satire in it Particularly funny are the chapters on procrastination and pretentiousness The chapter on going to the brother is very much of its time and somewhat [...]

21. Unlike other works of Eliade, this did not appeal to me I found it quite boring, maybe because I am long time passed the high school period In any case, what really impressed me is that at 19 when he wrote it he was imagining himself covered with glory, admired and receiving awards Years later, it happened This is what I call positive thinking

Dup terminarea acestui roman, am stat s m g ndesc de ce mi a luat dou luni s l termin Am ajuns la concluzia c iubeam cartea n timp ce o uram O uram c m reg seam n fiecare capitol n mod dureros, de multe ori Fix n acel timp m m cina ntrebarea Cine sunt eu Lucru despre care Eliade a scris n acest roman, detaliat O uram pentru c la fiecare capitol trebuia s stau mult, nu c l citeam greu, dar sim eam c mi se furau cuvintele din g ndul i sufletul meu i se a terneau pe h rtie O iubeam totu i, din acel [...]
