  Article:   KNUT HAMSUN: THE ARTIST AND THE WANDERER.

Authors:  SANDA TOMESCU BACIU.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  Redefining the concept of the novel not only in Norwegian literature but also in world literature, Knut Hamsun - whose literary mastery is celebrated internationally in 2009 on his 150 anniversary – is a forerunner of the stream of consciousness technique with his novel Hunger. This article presents a brief description of the main elements connecting this novel to Hamsun’s theoretical views on literature, but also to his later literary work, with accent on the model of the wanderer.

Key Words: modernism, stream of consciousness, hunger, unconsciousness, wanderer
