Alexandru Burlacu’s book Texistences III. Ulysses’ Shadow presents a continuation of his books published in 2012. They are broadly characterized by a prospective approach and by the author’s temptation for another form of analysis, the intrinsic one. The critical trends mentioned should be in no way understood as two orientations, one over another, but as two absolutely necessary ways for intuition of literature perspective. The beneficial results of this displacement or, rather, substitution of critical views have not been too much expected. Conclusive evidence of this are the studies included in the three sections of the book: Circe’s Island, Palimpsest and Light Refraction in which there are analyzed books written by I. Druta. A. Busuioc, S. Vangheli, D. Matcovschi, A. Turcanu, P. Goma, as well as a number of writers of the interwar period.
