Summary/Abstract: Al. Robots is not part of the founding models of the era, but he grew up and trained at their school, being close to the notorious personalities of the time. The contacts with the intellectual and artistic elite generated the creative impetus of the young poet, Al. Robot. He manages to enter the sights of the authorized critical voices, G. Călinescu, Perpessicius, E. Lovinescu, benefiting from encouraging chronicles. Despite his death at only 25 years old, Al. Robot managed to create a name in the literary world through two poetry volumes: “Apocalips Terestru” (1932) and “Somnul singurătății” (1936), two unpublished poetry notebooks, organized in cycles: “Îmblânzitorul de cuvinte” (1968), “Plecările și popasurile poetului” (1968) and the proletarian collection “A înflorit Moldova” (1968), a novel in manuscript “Music-hall” (Viața românească, 1969, no. 11-12).There is a relative field of reference to Al. Robot’s creation, consisting of selected writings, anthologies, pages of literary history, articles and notes. The aesthetic recovery exercises of Al. Robot’s work is not recent. In the meantime, however, articles and studies were written about literary life in the interwar period, about the top personalities, in whose entourage the young Al. Robot was trained. The gradual recovery of Al. Robot’s creation, the critical evaluations that appeared sporadically after the 1960s, the extensive studies on interwar literature managed, first of all, to shed light on fragments of the creation of a writer who disappeared prematurely.
