Summary/Abstract: The research we present in this article brings to light the ontological vision that permeates Eminescu's thinking, overlooked until now in the study of his work. We can thus understand that ontology is present not only in the great traditional philosophical systems. Even if he did not manage to build a philosophical system because his poetic nature did not incline him towards such an approach, Eminescu had a complete systemic vision of existence. The problem of being, of existence is the fundamental theme of his thinking, an aspect reflected both in his poetic and theoretical creation. In this sense, we support and develop the following ideas in the text below: Existence in Eminescu’s work does not refer to a single area of the world, but to a system composed of three differentiated fields that we will designate by the generic expression of the triad of ontological situations: existence as a whole; appearance of the existing; the being itself. Being self-conscious, he is continually analyzing himself, his being and his creative capacity. He ontologizes himself and we call his metaphysics the science of the Romanian longing for the Absolute.
