Summary/Abstract: Through the comparison between Panorama de la litterature roumaine contemporaine (An Overview of Contemporary Romanian Literature, 1938) by Basil Munteanu and Istoria literaturii române (The History of Romanian Literature, 1991) by Ion Negoitescu, the identification of certain strategies of the critical discourse by which Romanian literature tried in the 20th century to legitimize itself as European literature is intended. The tension between cultural criticism and literary criticism is analyzed, between the internal and external perspectives, between a psycho-critical monograph and a strictly aesthetic configuration of a literature's image.
