Abstract

"""Comparable to Lamartinism and Hugolianism, Byron's influence on Romanian literature has a ferment value,"" because it spread rapidly and ""it was fashionable in the West and especially in Paris"" responding to the need of a ""society caught in the whirlwind of fitting into European culture and which, detached from patriarchal and oriental forms, is looking for a national frame."" Byron entered the Romanian literary spheres during the pasoptist period and ""(...) becomes a legendary figure in the spring of 1812, with the deliberate shadow of a Haroldian identity hanging over his own person. Such an author-character mixture was a delicacy of the romantic kitchen since Goethe's Werther, whose sufferings were identified with the disease of time."" (our translation) which represents the first testimony of this trend that will spread its fragrance in the Romanian letters."
