Summary/Abstract: The main stream poetry of the 2000 generation in Romanian poetry is considered to belong to the neo-expressionism. Its claimed roots can be found in the extensions of expressionism in the Romanian literature. These extensions do not represent the mainstream poetry of the ’80, the generation of Romanian poets who write before the 2000 generation. However there are voices, like Radu Vancu and V.Leac whose poetry is different because they claim different cultural sources than their colleagues of generation. This paper examines these sources and stresses the originality of the poetry of Radu Vancu and V.Leac.
