Summary/Abstract: Although in lesser measure than the French novel, the English novel in the original was also being circulated at the time in Romania. An indicator for this may be the promptness of commentaries on the novels in the year of their London publication. The press offers the researcher a panoramic view of the way in which the contemporaries of inter-war period perceived the English novel. The most translated authors in Romania in the inter-war period were: Dickens, Wells, Oscar Wilde, Cronin and the most popular novel was Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë, translated by Paul B. Marian.
