Summary/Abstract: The present article is concerned with the case of the first Romanian poetess, Maria Suciu-Bosco, and it approaches the rapport between feminine beauty and literary creation. It follows a trip in the lady poet’s biography and the critical bibliography. The final part deals with the analysis of her poems, underlining the suffering lyricism and strident sensuality, yet supressed. The essay sheds light upon the pioneering merits of the poetess.
