Summary/Abstract: The aim of this study is to provide a succinct analysis of intertextuality as a method of creating literary works, both in form and meaning. Emil Botta’s poetry is deeply intertextual, because it extracts its substance from a vast network of cultural, mythological and literary motifs. This study will subject the text to a reception analysis. Meaning can be created in the text through dialogism and polyphony, but also through the act of reading. The theoretical support will have as its literary support the work of Emil Botta, starting from the first stage of his literary creation, with the volumes Întunecatul April [Dark April] and Pe-o gură de rai [At Heaven’s doorsill], and until the last stage of creation, with the volume Un dor fără sațiu [An Insatiable Longing].
