Summary/Abstract: The relationship between history and literature is natural. The two humanistic fields intertwine and create a system of relationships that contributes to the formation of a mental image of society. How much does history influence the literary field? Is there a mutual influence? We aim to analyze the mechanisms of fictionalization of history in literature, by applying the theoretical part on several novels by Ștefan Agopian (Tache de catifea, Tobit, Sara), as well as to highlight the identity marks of the mentioned writer.
