| Summary: | Analyzing Caragiale’s work, a so called “unity in variety” can be noticed and
his entire creation may be named after one of his sketches, Plot and variations. Since
the fire on Dealul Spirii, a real story, had been given five different interpretations
by the local media, so must we understand Caragiale’s literary pieces: they have a
“plot”, i.e. the society, and several “variants” (forms), i.e. the events or happenings
of all kinds.
As an urban writer, Caragiale was preoccupied with the town and its very
life, but also with folk themes and motifs. He also described the countryside with
its scenery, inns and innkeepers, the places where people used to meet and talk.
Trades and their professions were presented in his sketches and stories, too |
