Summary/Abstract: About the Romanian Baroque has been written quite a bit, but about Eminescu’s baroque not too much, the romanian poet being emphasized only by a few specific features of this current.One could not say that the Romanian spirit is, by its nature, baroque. He rather tends to classical silence and simplicity.Coming out of the folklore, Eminescu also comes into the historical context where „the Romanian creative expression often tends to barochize, even in non-Baroque moments”,as Edgar Papu says in „Baroque as way of living” (Barocul ca tip de existență).
