Summary/Abstract: Without a doubt, the volume Ciulei și spectrul tatălui (Ciulei and the Specter of the Father), subtitled A Psychobiography and published in 2024 by Litera Publishing House in the Perspektiv collection, stands out as a landmark editorial release in the field of dramatic arts in Romania. This is not only because it recalibrates the public image of one of the most prolific Romanian theatre figures of recent history, but especially because the author displays a filigree-like meticulousness, capturing the facets and nuances of a Renaissance-like personality in a complex lacework full of revelatory beauty and rough edges.
