Summary/Abstract: In the case of Ioan Alexandru poetry, the option for the so-called patriotic poetics- that is a lyrical discourse focused on the home reality or on subject with a national specificity, treated at its highest, as well as taking up the hymn formula, they are all linked to a firm interior structure, genuinely peasant, upon which there is a well-structured intellectual model, forged and refined through the thorough and direct contact with the European poetry and philosophy and especially the German one. It seems that the direction of taking up and accepting the national as a spiritual model and creative pattern stems, in his case, from the universal.
