Summary/Abstract: The last seven authors who come to share their experience with the readers are: Lucian P. Petrescu, Mircea Pora, Ion Jurca Rovina, Dan Florita Seracin, Ion Scorobete, Mircea Serbanescu and Marcel Turcu. They offer condensed insights into theirpersonal evolution, both as inhabitants and as writers of the Banat region, emphasising the undeniable intertwinment of life and literary production under the generous umbrella of a plural cultural space. The second part of the inquiry contains the considerations of four more Banat writers: Remus Valeriu Giorgioni, Hans Matthias Just, Ivo Muncian and Dan Negrescu. THey present and analise their literary experience in light of the cultural influence of the space within which they have developed. The standpoints are exposed in extremely varied manners, this diversity adding flavour to the originality of the approach. The "inquiry-pages" of the newspaper present the response of some representative Banat writers to the title question: thus, the respondents try to analyse the influence of the cultural heritage of the region upon their own literary productions. The first page features the contributions of Veronica Balaj, Vasile Bogdan, Iosif Caraiman, Radu Ciobanu and Octavian Doclin.
