Summary/Abstract: Madame de Maintenon et la culture roumaine. The purpose of this paper is to offer an outline of Madame de Maintenon’s reception in Romanian culture. Her name, although unknown as a writer, may be found in Romanian newspapers as early as 1907. Several articles in the literary journals would be dedicated to Madame de Maintenon. They presented her personality, her life, and her rich correspondence, through which “she went down into French literary history”.
