Mircea Nedelciu Biography

Mircea Nedelciu is one of the most popular and richest Novelist who was born on November 12, 1950 in Fundulea, Călărași, Romania.

A follower of trends in avant-garde literature of the 1960s and ’70s, Nedelciu co-founded the literary circle Noii (“The New Ones”) with Gheorghe Crăciun, Gheorghe Ene, Ioan Flora, Gheorghe Iova, Ioan Lăcustă, Emil Paraschivoiu, Sorin Preda and Constantin Stan. His integration as an authoritative voice on the Postmodern scene, inaugurated by his presence in the Desant ’83 anthology, was complemented by his free-minded attitude and drifter lifestyle. Although Nedelciu’s political nonconformism pitted him against the repressive communist system on several occasions, he stood out on the literary scene for adapting to some communist requirements in order to get his message across. This tendency made Nedelciu the target of controversy.

Owing to their secondary nature, that of literary tests, Nedelciu’s works abound in references and compliments to, as well as borrowings from, various authors. Names critics cite in this context include Romanian classics such as Ion Luca Caragiale, Mateiu Caragiale, Mircea Eliade and Marin Preda. Nedelciu’s narratives were overall significantly indebted to American fiction, and in particular to J. D. Salinger, in whose Catcher in the Rye he reportedly found the first model for his own autofictional style. He is also known to have reworked and blended into his own texts various themes borrowed from Ernest Hemingway. The English-speaking world became the Romanian author’s primary cultural reference, and, according to researcher Caius Dobrescu, Nedelciu was one of those “fascinated” with the ideas of Canadian essayist Northrop Frye on “the constant degeneration of the character” in Western literature. His inspiration sources also covered French authors associated with the May 1968 movement. Primarily related to his interest in the textuality and intertextuality techniques of Tel Quel theorists, French echoes are ranked by Diniţoiu as secondary in Nedelciu’s work. The author did however make extensive use of constrained writing techniques popularized by France’s avant-garde, stating his admiration for the lipograms of Georges Perec. According to a testimonial by his friend Gheorghe Crăciun, Mircea Nedelciu also adopted “action writing”-like techniques, “without prior minute elaboration”, displaying “that science of controlling one’s own text bear- handed.” Diniţoiu also mentions the “passion […] for exact science” as a distinct trait of Nedelciu’s experimentation, accounting for his “stylistic rigor”.

Mircea Nedelciu (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈmirt͡ʃe̯a neˈdelt͡ʃju] ; November 12, 1950 – July 12, 1999) was a Romanian short-story writer, novelist, essayist and literary critic, one of the leading exponents of the Optzecişti generation in Romanian letters. The author of experimental prose, mixing elements of conventional narratives with autofiction, textuality, intertextuality and, in some cases, fantasy, he placed his work at the meeting point between Postmodernism and a minimalist form of Neorealism. This approach is illustrated by his volumes of stories and his novels Zmeura de cîmpie (“Raspberry of the Field”), Tratament fabulatoriu (“Confambulatory Treatment”), and by Femeia în roşu (“The Woman in Red”), a collaborative fiction piece written together with Adriana Babeţi and Mircea Mihăieş.

Nedelciu equaled his integration into the Desant ’83 group with an affiliation to Postmodernism, an interpretation of positioning which came to divide the Optzecişti camp. Mircea Cărtărescu, another member of this faction, referred to his colleague as “the uncontested prose leader of the 1980s”, while Mihăieş acknowledged in him “the true leader of our generation, whose rule was naturally acknowledged, indisputable and therefore not at all constrictive.” In tandem, author Daniel Cristea-Enache retrospectively referred to Nedelciu as a “Pope of Romanian textualism” whose “strongest asset” was literary theory. The main meeting point between Nedelciu’s style and Postmodernist tenets is provided by his attachment to reinterpreting literary conventions, often with the introduction of self-referential material or provoking artistic license.

The final decade of Nedelciu’s life witnessed his struggle with Hodgkin’s disease, a rare type of lymphoma with which he was diagnosed in 1988, and which severely impaired his motor skills. His treatment involved difficult surgery, performed with French assistance; in 1995, he was subject to a bone marrow autograft, carried out in Romania with additional help from Marseille’s Paoli-Calmettes Institute. Although he was eventually forced to use a wheelchair, Nedelciu continued to be active on the literary scene, both through his involvement with the Writers’ Union and his founding of Euromedia, a Franco-Romanian company specialized in distributing literature. He also briefly served as editor of Contrapunct, a magazine launched by the Optzecişti, and, after accusing the Writers’ Union of “Stalinism”, joined other disgruntled authors in creating the Association of Professional Writers. Late in his life, he also presided over the initiative to monitor book circulations, setting up the external auditor program Topul naţional de carte (“National Book Rankings”). His output was much reduced and his ability to write altogether threatened, but he was still working on Zodia Scafandrului, his final contribution to literature.
