The Interpretative-Ideological Function of the Narrator in Pashoptist Prose

Gathering several narrative and stylistic formulas, the prose of the Pasoptist period also highlights a diverse typology of narrators, who, apart from organizing the sequence of events (narration), also assume other roles, arising from the way these textual instances relate to the diegesis. In our communication, we will follow and comment on the interpretativeideological positioning of the narrators of some proses of the period in relation to the narrated events, in relation to the characters and narrators. We specify that this function, which requires the acting narrator (in the terminology of the French theorist Jaap Lintvelt) to define his attitude, to express his own opinions in relation to the characters and the narrators, is adopted by the narrators of the memoirist writings, signed by Mihail Kogălniceanu, Alecu Russo, Constantin Negruzzi, Vasile Alecsandri etc.
