Summary

The present research is dedicated to the influence of I. Neculce’s work upon the Romanian literature. The emphasis is laid on the similitudes both on the levels of themes, motives, historical subjects borrowed in Romanian literature of the 19th century and on the stylistic level (similitudes between I. Neculce’s literary art and of those who took this art as an expressive model). The author refers especially to literature from 1848 for, due to circumstances, necessities and contrite needs, namely in the first half of the 19th century I. Neculce’s literary traditions were in the center of attention.

Numerous researches of the reception of I. Neculce’s traditions in the period of Romanian romanticism are centered upon the three basic characteristics of I. Neculce’s work: folklore, from which there are, derived: historical matters and narrative-stylistic values. On the basis of the research some conclusions are formulated: I. Neculce’s work is the beginning of a folk activity with good results in the following decades. From the point of view of narrative dimensions, I. Neculce also follows the popular model on the general memorialistic background, focused on the local color or the local beauties.

The reception of I. Neculce’s work stylistically follows two ways: one lyrical, in the center of which the symbol of ruins is placed, and the epic one which revives birth to historical scenes and subjects. Sometimes the poetry inspired from historical subjects combines the lyrical and epic aspects. The epic and epic-lyrical poetry served as a joint for numerous attempts of writes from 1848 to create a national epoch, a species in which classicism is combined naturally with romanticism.

In prose, like in the poetry, the reception of I. Neculce’s work follows two artistic models which are developed independently or are mutually fused. The first tendency is a lyrical and basic one; the second is of epic and reconstituted essence. Between these two ways of interpretation of historical reality there are produced contaminations, mutual fusions.

Writers from 1848 are presented as followers of I. Neculce both in the direction of valorification of historical traditions and in taking I. Neculce’s style that means the laconism of the classicists, the lyrism of romanticists, durity of realists and also speaking in examples of A.Pann, humor of I. Creangă, color of M. Sadoveanu, pamthletic virulence of T. Arghezi.

Studying the borrowing and transformations done by writers from 1848 of folk, historical and narrative-stylistically traditions found in I. Neculce’s work the author proves the following of traditions from one epoch to another.
