“Who is Mihai Eminescu(1850-1889)? Any Romanian will answer, without a moment’s thinking: Our national poet. In other words, a superlative expression of ethnical sensibility, a voice authorized and competent to represent the Romanian nation in mankind’s concert, the axiological synthesis of the historical moment, one of the greatest lyrical poets of world literature, comparable- in his uniqueness- with Byron, Hugo, Hölderlin, Leopardi, Lermontov, Petöfi, Mickiewicz, therefore with the luminaries of European Romanticism.” (Aurel Martin)
