Davidescu, Nicolae

▪ Romanian poet
born 1888, Bucharest, Rom.
died 1954

      Romanian poet and novelist whose early poems, Inscripţii (1916), showed the influence of Charles Baudelaire. Among his prose works the novel Zâna din fundul lacului (1912; “The Fairy at the Bottom of the Lake”) was an exercise in symbolism, and Vioara mută (1928; “The Muted Violin”), in social psychology. In the epic Cântecul omului (1928–37; “The Song of Man”), he aimed at re-creating world history. Two collections of his literary criticism were published posthumously: Aspecte şi direƈtii literare (1975; “Literary Conventions and Directions”) and Poezii, teatru, proză (1977; “Poetry, Drama, Prose”).
