Cenzura și autocenzura sau Fuga de tine însuți*

de Dan Ionescu

*Articol apărut în revista „Scrisul Românesc”, Nr. 11 / 2014

Cea mai gravă formă de cenzură o exercită sistemul politic și poate fi dublă, dictatorială sau a partidului de la putere. Cenzura vizează fie conduita, fie opera scriitorului.

Pe vremea lui Octavian, poetul Ovidiu a fost exilat la Tomis, din calda și luxoasa Romă, pe motiv că ar fi participat la o petrecere de pomină, între ai cărei părtași, Livia, fiica împăratului, nu s-a sfiit să iasă în decor, peste ceea ce se știa despre ea. De teamă ca poetul să nu vorbească în lume, Octavian l-a exilat pe nepusă masă. Opera în schimb i-a rămas liberă, inclusiv scrisorile de iertare, expediate de la Tomis.

ABSTRACT
The study reveals how to be successful, how to make friends, how to become influential, which are desires, goals for most of us.

Persuasion through its mechanisms, strategies and methods, constitutes a way to success.

ABSTRACT
The scientists as Bateson, Watzlawick expresses the determining role of interaction in the axiom of the “impossibility of not communicating”. All behavior (verbal and nonverbal) occurring between persons who are conscious of each other‟s presence has behavioural effects, whether intended or not. Such effects have interpersonal message value, and thus are communicative in nature. Since it is impossible for humans not to behave in one way or another, it follows that in interaction it is impossible not to communicate (Bateson, 1963; Watzlawick et al., 1967). Communication theory is relatively new as science and interacts with the other disciplines of sciences. During its development some of the notions were used that were already committed and comprehensive. This article aims to present some of them. Terms as system, input, output, feedback, entropy specific to scientific disciplines as systems theory, cybernetics, information theory, physics, are especially used in communication theory.
Keywords: systems theory; entropy; centripetal force; centrifugal force; communication theory
