His poetry was first published when he was 16 and he went to Vienna to study when he was 19. The poet's Manuscripts, containing 46 volumes and approximately 14,000 pages, were offered by TituMaiorescu as a gift to the Romanian Academy during the meeting that was held on 25 January 1902. Notable works include Luceafarul(The Vesper/The Evening Star/The Lucifer/The Daystar), “Odaînmetruantic” – “Ode in Ancient Meter”, and the five Letters (Epistles/Satires).
