Abstract

Vasile Voiculescu (1884-1963), besides being a well-known writer, was also a prominent, much respected physician who practiced between the two world wars. He attended the courses of the Faculty of Letters and Philosophy in Bucharest for a year (1902-1903), but gave up on them in order to attend the Faculty of Medicine. The literary debut took place in 1912 in the journal Convorbiri literare. He published the first volume of lyrical poems in 1916 and in 1918 he was granted the Academy Award for lyrical volume From the Aurochs Country and other poems. In 1935 he became a member of the Academy of Sciences of Romania and in 1941 he received the National Poetry Prize. The following volumes of poems are: Ripeness (1921), Poems with Angels (1927), Destiny (1933), Ascent (1937), Gleams (1939). His work also includes a short story: The Demiurge (1943). Shakespeare's last imaginative sonnets in Vasile Voiculescu’s translation (1964), and the novel Zahei-The blind (1966), Sentimental Gymnastics (1972) are published posthumously. The present article is aimed at revealing the world of Voiculescu’s short stories
