Summary/Abstract: Ioan Flora, with his memory of the Serbian Banat, the native place he left behind, focuses on this space he regards as full of magic and confers upon it a multicultural and postmodern identity, these being specific connotations which turn the poet into a unique voice in the context of contemporary Romanian literature. Ioan Flora is Romanian poet from Serbia, who is placed by literary criticism and history among the writers of the 1980s generation. Flora's poetry uses space as a central point of view in many of his poems, a space where the poet located himself. In the same time, in parallel with the theories of postmodernism, Flora uses memory irony to describe the true landmarks in Romanian literature from the Serbian Banat. This paper presents the most significant poetic motifs of Ioan Flora’s poetry.
