Summary/Abstract: The work of the Poet Queen Elisabeth zu Wied (1843– 1916), who signed the pseudonym of Carmen Sylva during the period 1880–1916, represents an important and unique occasion for recalling the mediation, promotion, and cultural marketing efforts made with a characteristic rigor and preciseness, truly innovative for the first time in Romanian literary culture. This study further intends to outline the complex transdisciplinary designs of the mediation, promotion, and marketing strategy carefully developed and articulated by Carmen Sylva, the remarkable Poet Queen.
