Summary/Abstract: Gheorghe Grigurcu is known as a literary critic of poetry, while the position of poet was the writer’s first vocation. We identify the marginalization of the poet both geographically, being isolated in “Amarul Târg” (Târgu Jiu), and literary, by imposing some malicious restrictions: all this placing him under the badge of suspicion. Regarding the exegesis of Gheorghe Grigurcu, it is appropriate to selectively inventory some opinions belonging to contemporary literary critics or writers who have asserted themselves and capitalized on the status of a literary critic, but also a poet, as the writer Grigurcu himself wanted to be received. The dual nature of the writer, critic and poet, makes it impossible to analyze the two vocations separately, a fact that requires their twin research. Nonconformist, awkward, atypical, formidable polemicist, judicial spirit, corrosive is just some of the defining attributes that highlight the personality legitimized by the book universe. For the literary critic, poet, polemicist and author of aphorisms of the same name, to give up writing is to deny oneself.
