Keywords: Mihai Eminescu; limba română; cultura română veche, arhaisme; carte veche
Preoccupied of literature, linguistics, philosophy and history, Mihai Eminescu remained in Romanian cultural history not only due to its remarkable literary writings and literary language, but also because his ideas about language and style, and concepts of the Romanian language and national literature. For understanding and analysis his work, the technique used in the interpretation must be a complex one, which includes the quest of the sources of inspiration and the influence exerted on his of the Romanian old culture. This is because numerous representative writings of the Romanian old culture constituted the subject of his researches and, charmed by the beauty of the Romanian old language, the archaisms and the eloquence of the expressions, Mihai Eminescu has not hesitated to transcribe them in his own manuscripts, and then to use them in his writings.

The charge of bringing back to life, the beauties of the Romantic poems written by the Romanian Eminescu, is not easy. A good translation requires more effort, so that you can rebuild the souls moments of the poet's creation or to make a better approximation. More than the appropriate conditions, an affinity of temperament needs to be created, a similar moral climate between the translator and the interpretation. The translator would otherwise have a problem while trying to make Eminescu’s poems circulate in the spiritual space of the people of letters worldwide. Even though there are many difficulties when translating his artistic temperament into other languages, there are, nowadays, around 600 titles and editions of his poems, which have the rigour of professionalism confess similar physiognomies and the translator’s talent. Many translators have, by a major meeting of meanings, of atmosphere, of echoes with the original, made great creations. Pictures will prove, hopefully, the above-mentioned statements.

Keywords: Time; ontological model; Mihai Şora; Phenomenology; consciousness of time; the temporality of the Moment; intersubjectivity; “the gift of Encounter”; dialogical philosophy; empathy; relation; authenticity
The present contribution has the purpose of evidencing both the originality of Şora’s understanding of time (and its importance for the question of authenticity, empathy and intersubjectivity), and the possibility of a dialogue with Husserl’s understanding of the consciousness of internal time. One of the most important aspects of my paper is the endeavour to bring to light the underlying structure of temporality at work in Mihai Şora’s philosophy. The two forms of temporality present in Şora’s thought – the temporality “of the Moment” and that “of the instances of countable time” – open up the possibility of a phenomenological understanding of time. Some specific terms which Şora uses to describe the two forms of temporality – like the “vertical plunge”, “openness”, “disclosure”, “the gift of Encounter”, “the horizontal walk”, etc. – seem, at least at first, to belong to a poetic language, full of metaphors, a language which doesn’t seem to have much in common with the rigors of a philosophical language, but they nevertheless reveal some fundamental characteristics of the two forms of temporality. The possibility of understanding and interpreting these forms of temporality as structures belonging to the consciousness of time, in a broad sense (which correspond to the fabric of the real word, according to Şora’s ontological model), is another interesting question which will be debated in the present study.

Keywords: national poet; literary history; Mihai Eminescu; romanticism; literary dictionaries
Mihai Eminescu is known as the Romanian national poet, the most im-portant writer of the XIXth century in Romanian literature, whose writ-ings have been intensely interpreted since his poetic debut. Therefore, this paper proposes a study of the way the literary dictionaries build the image of “the national poet”. This identity construct is significant to our investigation because it influences the interpretation of the poet’s figure through history. In order to have a wider view of the problem, we con-sulted a series of literary dictionaries and also dictionaries for students use to see how the figure of Eminescu is taught in schools. Moreover, we did not put aside foreign dictionaries, which bring a more objective per-spective to the issue. The majority of Romanian dictionaries alter the po-et’s portrait in favor of a “national construct”, created partly by the use of rhetoric figures. Another way of composing him a deformed image is accomplished by writing subjective and opaque interpretation of his po-ems. Consequently, such hermeneutics focuses on developing a myth that reflects mainly the way Romanians as nation want to be recognized and remembered.

Keywords: critical reception; fantastic prose; influences; Mihai Eminescu; interpretation
Unlike his poetry, which was immediately accepted and powered by the critical consciousness and the public, Mihai Eminescuřs prose had to go a long way before being acknowledged, and analyzed. This happened mainly because of the small number of writings published during his life, and because of his type of fantastic prose, which was full of strong philosophical influences. In all of its representations, his prose meets the condition of comparison with the European creations of this particular genre. Beyond its originality, Mihai Eminescuřs prose represents a full integration into a vast concert of symbols, myths, ideas of great universal circulation, and thus, it ensures the permanency of his writings. Beyond these external references, which are, however, crucial in order to understand the value of his fantastic prose, we must emphasize the important role that the aforementioned influences played in the Romanian literature and in its directions developed by the writers of the entire 20th century

Keywords: Mihai Eminescu; Romanian poet; poetry; works; the Romanian and Italian culture; Italian Romantic poets; European Romantic poets;
The undeniable genius of the Romanian poetry, Mihai Eminescu belongs to great family of the European Romantic poets. Both his culture and his Dionysian sensibility bring him closer to the Italian Romantic poets. His poetry could be set on two levels: that deep and mysterious one that leads to a mystical knowledge of the universe and the romantic and wanderering level, more accessible, more transparent and often with a classic rhythm.
