Summary/Abstract: Eminescu's « Miracle »: Transparency and Ambiguity. A Paradoxical Semiosis. The present paper aims to demonstrate that the richness and acuity of Eminescu’s work may undoubtedly represent a major argument to a semiotic-based inquiry. Following a simple, yet complex and unpredictable stylistic pattern, the study focuses primarily on the poem From among hundreds of masts (‘Dintre sute de catarge’) which summarizes, in a unique manner, the entire cogito of the poet. Charged with textual unities, exploiting the clear, coherent form, and reaching, above all, an eidetic and ontological world, this masterpiece proliferates a semiotics full of tension and paradoxes, as a testifier of a visionary, ineffable, subjectivity.
