The unique theme of the (doctoral) study elaborated by Teodora Georgiana Amza is researched from several theoretical and applied angles, including these two: the relationship between Doric-type Romanesque poetics (characterized by Balzac's authorial omniscience) and the Ionic one (focused on the voluptuousness of psychological analysis marked by "a Proustianism without Proust"), in Hortensia Papadat-Bengescu's writing, and respectively, her "courage" to compose, in a "deforming-revealing" formula, a true fresco of a world with aristocratic ambitions - and ignoble origins. The roles assumed by the female characters imply, as a whole, the suggestion of a "theatre of masks" directed by the narrator-director, who ironically - and even caricaturally - projects the irreversible degradation of the "soul body". The following titles from the present study - "Femininity in the mirror of biological ages", "Women's emancipation. Female insurgency. Feminism", "Rebellion against the conventions imposed by marriage", "Adultery. Incest. "The ideal couple""... - are eloquent regarding the issue of female insurgency, in Hortensia Papadat-Bengescu's novels whose narrative methods have as a point of convergence the so-called "psychological dissection" of the characters.
