The Liberation of the Object in Gellu Naum’s Vasco da Gama The paper analyses one of the Gellu Naum’s poetic masterpieces, Vasco da Gama. The main aim is to reconstruct Naum’s aesthetic premises that lead him to transform the images to reveal the real nature of the poetic objects. The theoretical background for Naum is created by the André Breton’s essay Crise l’objet (1936). The article presents the crucial imperative in the Romanian Surrealism leader’s Nuca terorizează orasele.
