Articles for Lucian Blaga Yearbook/ Caietele Lucian Blaga no. XXIV tome 1 – 2023
 
Theme: Fear and Literature
 
The actuality of this type of theme is born out of the experience of the past years, when the pandemic brought about various reformulations, including of literature, but also out of the mutations which have arisen throughout the cultural ages under the influence of fear, analysed from a philosophical, literary, or cultural point of view in relation to all cultural products.
Issue XXIV (1) of the Lucian Blaga Notebooks advances the following axes of debate:
 
-       Pandemics, epidemics, social maladies as reflected in literature 
-       Catastrophes and the apocalyptic imaginary
-       Terrorism and individual / collective threats 
-       „Fear” and „anxiety” in defining characters 
-       The ideology of fear, reality and fantasy 
-       Collective terror and social vision 
-       Pathologies and representations of maladies in literature 
-       Collective trauma and their representation in art, film, literature 
-       Censorship, subversive language in literature written in totalitarian regimes
