Summary/Abstract: At a time when the country's socio-political scene is invaded by the characters of Caragiale, Al. O. Teodoreanu is distinguished by elegance, pure talent and verticality. With a quill, often soaked in venom, Pastorel Teodoreanu pleads for authenticity, value, honesty and respect for the past. The love of one’s homeland leads him to put his whole being in the service of the country, fighting against his enemies with both the firearm and the weapon he masters like no other: the word. With a bitter joke, he "attacks" the neuralgic points of Romanian society at the beginning of the twentieth century: demagogy, false patriotism, lying and ignorance. Having the vocation of an artist, but also the skill of a learned man, he succeeds in reproducing the performance of interwar and post-war Romania.
