Andre Malraux: The -Farfelu- As Expression of the Feminine and the Erotic

Domnica Radulescu

5/5 ( ratings)

Be it in the light fantastic of his early work, or the classic tragedy of "La Condition humaine," or sensuous poetry of the "Antimemoires," Andre Malraux uses -farfelu- and related discourses to represent, not the simple -misogyny- of his critics, but a complex image of the symbolism of the sexes and of their interrelations - notably as regards the erotic, maternal, artistic and other aspects of the feminine. As Domnica Radulescu shows, in phenomenological terms, -farfelu- discourse is part of Malraux's creation through art of a true -anti-destiny, - a cosmic eroticism which recursively forms the primary material of the poetic imagination."
