Russo Alecu

 AAA             Russo Alecu was a writer without notorious ambition; he didn't write too much (maybe became of his premature disappearance).
            A strange mixture of melancholy and progresist ambitions he found his true  vocation in memoirs.
            In Amintiri (Memories) he époques the years of childhood with a nostalgy which hides romantic sensitive.
            The narrative, rich in descriptive elements is often interrupted by psychological reflections. This reveals a cultural writer who prefigures in our literature the essay-writer's art.
            Iasii si locuitorii lui (Iassy and Its Inhabitours) is a picture of the Moldavian society.
            Piatra teiului and Stanca corbului are voyage notes in which he tells two popular legends.
            The poem in prose Cantarea Romaniei had a great echo owning to its patriotic message.
            He realizes a collection of ballads and doinas and publishes the study Poezia poporala in which he reveals the esthetic value and the documentary one of the popular creation.
            Cugetari - his theoretical work is influenced by classicism.
