Summary/Abstract: In the first half of the 19th century, a new literary species is particularly successful. The prose of the first half of that time will be invaded by literary physiology, the appearance of numerous writings of this kind representing an impetus for many other writers of the time to take up such a perspective. Thus, a considerable number of physiological monographs of contemporary society entered the literature of the time, in which the various social, psychological and professional types etc. are put under the microscope. Romanian writers do not remain indifferent to such approaches either, and gradually, a considerable part of Romanian literary productions from the 19th century was influenced by the procedures characteristic of literary physiology. And one of the Romanian writers who also approached that literary genre is Dimitrie Ralet. Through his writings, he delighted the public with such neat creations, moderate in tonality, but with an obvious moralistic character.
