Tudor Crețu is a writer, the director of the "Sorin Titel" Timiș County Library, and a TV journalist. He writes poetry, prose, and literary criticism, and he organizes cultural events. As part of the Literary Map of Timișoara project, Tudor Crețu invites us on a literary tour through the books that define Timișoara.
"A 'leafing-through' of Timișoara by way of a few of its central landmarks — landmarks that, in the pages of the books this tour is built upon, tell a different kind of story. Obscure or luminous. Funny or tragic. The city as an everyday mystery. As a story caught in perpetual developing. As reality outdoing fiction." — Tudor Crețu
Registration for the literary tour opens on July 20 through a form available on the Harta Literară social media pages and on the website www.hartaliterara.ro. Participation is free, and the number of places is limited.
The Literary Map of Timișoara project is funded by the City of Timișoara through the Center for Projects.
Tech and Tonic is an NGO founded in 2023, dedicated to exploring the social impact of new technologies and their creative use in the social and cultural fields. The association develops projects at the intersection of technology, culture, society, and migration, with the aim of supporting education, social cohesion, civic participation, and equitable access to information. The Literary Map is a national project that grows from one city to the next, mapping the places that carry a story in Romania's literature — and now it opens its page dedicated to Timișoara. Through the module for the city on the Bega, the association promotes Timișoara through the lens of literature, bringing reading and creative work closer to the city and its people, with the help of interactive digital tools.
