Alexander the Great – A Literary Interpretation
Abstract
The posterity of the great Macedonian in the Romanian culture is a doubtless presence, and so is the Alexandermotive in the Romanian literature. If the important presence of Alexander with Mihail Sadoveanu, the founder of the Romanian historic novel, does not come as a surprise, the presence of the Macedonian king is quite strange with Mihail Sebastian, a writer significantly different in terms of background, ideas and style.
