Product Information
Ilinca Zarifopol-Johnston's critical biography of the Romanian-born French philosopher E. M. Cioran focuses on his crucial formative years as a mystical revolutionary attracted to right-wing nationalist politics in interwar Romania, his writings of this period, and his self-imposed exile to France in 1937. This move led to his transformation into one of the most famous French moralists of the 20th century. As an enthusiast of the anti-rationalist philosophies widely popular in Europe during the first decades of the 20th century, Cioran became an advocate of the fascistic Iron Guard. In her quest to understand how Cioran and other brilliant young intellectuals could have been attracted to such passionate national revival movements, Zarifopol-Johnston, herself a Romanian emigré, sought out the aging philosopher in Paris in the early 1990s and retraced his steps from his home village of Rasinari and youthful years in Sibiu, through his student years in Bucharest and Berlin, to his early residence in France. Her portrait of Cioran is complemented by an engaging autobiographical account of her rediscovery of her own Romanian past.

Reviews
"[Searching for Cioran] tells the story of his Romanian years and gives a fine account of the personal and political circumstances in which both his philosophical ideas and his brand of nationalism were formed. November 11, 2010"-- The New York Review of Books "This is a graceful study of a disputed period in Cioran's intellectual biography and personal life. With subtle sophistication and intimate knowledge of the subject . . . the author has sought to recreate Cioran's Romanian roots and his local and universal intellectual sources, in what, it was hoped, would become Cioran's ultimate scholarly biography. . . . Although the author's untimely death precluded the book's completion, no one will deny that what Zarifopol-Johnston has achieved is arguably one of the most audacious analyses to date of Cioran's life and writings. One can only hope that future studies will be as compelling and provacative, and thus complete the ambitious scholarly agenda set up by Zarifopol-Johnston.Spring 2010"-- Slavic Review "Zarifopol-Johnston seeks to understand Cioran rather than accuse him. . . . [She] points out both continuities and rifts between the thought of the 'Romanian' Cioran and the 'French' Cioran. . . . Searching for Cioran offers valuable material about an important writer's early life.January 25, 2009"-- Washington post "Very valuable and beautifully written . . . introducing her exciting subject in a context broad enough even for those who don't know much about Cioran."--Irina Livezeanu, author of Cultural Politics in Greater Romania "An important and distinctly original contribution to the growing field of Cioran studies. . . . [Zarifopol-Johnston] is a sharp, insightful observer of self and others, courageous and candid, writing in a fresh, quick-silver style."--from the Foreword by Matei Calinescu, "Zarifopol-Johnston seeks to understand Cioran rather than accuse him....

Elegantly written, meticulously researched, and subtly nuanced, this book will be read by all those interested in the intellectual torments of the 20th century." Vladimir Tismaneanu, author ofFantasies of Salvation"Very valuable and beautifully written . . . introducing her exciting subject in a context broad enough even for those who don't know much about Cioran." Irina Livezeanu, author ofCultural Politics in Greater Romania"Zarifopol-Johnston insists on understanding Cioran, Before any Moral Judgement or theoretical disagreements are even possible. Her book may be read as a long meditation on Cioran's self-fashioning and self invention. His disastrous passing through the buddy waters of interwar Romanian politics left him politically disenchanted and existentially empty, but it did not break him.... He came to term with this exile not just by accepting it, but by making it part of a cosmic scenario.... Cioran construed his "entire life as exile into the world". Zarifopol-Johnston, who died before completing this book, was in many ways ideally placed to understand her subject. Not only was she Cioran's translator... And profoundly familiar with his Romanian background, but she was also an exile herself. Her feelings towards the place Cioran left thirty years before her are not unlike his. The books unfinished quality and fragility resonates with Cioran's own precariousness and especially with his illness and death.
