Summary/Abstract: The following paper aims not only to identify and justify the meanings behind the elements regarding prison or imprisonment, encapsulated in Tudor Arghezi’s volume Flori de mucigai, but also to clarify and testify that the content of the above mentioned collection of poems subsequently draws and traces step-by-step the most important events, characters and actions that have crossed his path, creating therefore a vital biography of the time spent in prison by one of the most controversed and moreover, gifted writer of all times. When reading Arghezi we encounter, on one hand, ailing elements that may disturb or may distort our perception, and on the other hand there are key-elements that once understood can enlighten us. Although Arghezi’s universe may seem incomprehensible at first, his poems promise to summon thorough ideas by bringing the reader in the middle of the action and giving him the opportunity to carve and to sculpt the meanings behind the words.
