| Abstract: | Duiliu Zamfirescu’s short stories mark an important moment in the evolution of the Romanian genre by the sober, equilibrated construction. The author’s interest hovers over the individual drama, the conflict that springs between the character and his environment or inside the character’s conscience. The search for the inner identity is depicted in the short story Good night (Noapte bună), caused by love, one of the disturbing elements which helps the author to investigate the mechanisms of seduction and the ‘enigmatic behaviour of the woman in love’. In Durand’s terms, compared to Caragiale’ extroverted heroes, D. Zamfirescu’s characters are subtly re- placed in the romantic patterns. |
