Summary/Abstract: Authenticity is closely related to the expression of sincere feelings, thoughts, without regard to any rule. Camil Petrescu is a follower of lucidity and absolute sincerity, everything must be under the control of reason, including the most ineffable impulses.The whole work of the writer is an act of existence, Camil Petrescu being trapped in the game without escape of the iele, just like his heroes, searching relentlessly the absolute idea which necessarily involves substantiality.This authenticity blends with the polemic that opposes the writer's own vision to an other vision which seems to him insufficient, inaccurate or false.
