Summary/Abstract: We first state the case of temporal lobe epilepsy for Ion Creangă. We then relate his long-lasting personality to ten factors that hopefully describe the Artistic Personality by and large, five of them in cognitive and educational terms, the remaining five in psychosomatic and behavioural terms – in order the better to see how this idiopathic disease had an impact upon the artistic personality of Ion Creangă himself.
