Summary/Abstract: Romanian Female Translators in the Nineteenth Century. This study aims at presenting briefly the most representative female translators’ life and activity. They became famous for offering Romanian versions of many works belonging to European literature. Their option for women’s literature – often connected to their journalistic or teaching activity – was presented only to the extent of its relevancy. Special interest is given to the publication of these translations both in books and in the journals of the time or their presence on the Romanian stages.
