Summary/Abstract: The novel Theodoros offers a significant argument for the romantic influence and especially for Eminescu’s influence, included by Mircea Cărtărescu in his work almost on every occasion. This research follows the narrative episodes corresponding to the three Theodoros – Stamatina meetings, in which the intertext with one of Eminescu’s most popular poems, Luceafărul, stands out in a remarkable way, hence the interpretation of the protagonist’s portrait could use the romantic lyrical masks. Moreover, due to the appearance of the Flier, a major symbol of Romanian fantasy, the novel also falls into the category of magical realism, having, however, a language and a vision specific to Balkanism.
