Summary/Abstract: The paper explores the relationship, at different levels, between the Romanian interwar drama and the French one in a comparative manner. The starting point is the fact that, for the first time, between 1920 and 1945, Romanian drama shifts direction in an effort of alignment with European drama, and French drama in particular. Writers such as Victor Ion Popa, Camil Petrescu, and Mihail Sebastian propose a national theatrical policy of European inspiration. In this period,Romanian drama reaches its maturity in the sense of a separation from its French model. Thus, the French precedents are now regarded as (re)sources. The paper uses several texts to define a number of types of different relationships between the Romanian and European models of drama.
