Abstract: (G.I. Tohăneanu, An Outstanding Figure of the Classical and Roumanian Philology) Charimatic figure of the letters world, G.I. Tohăneanu (1925-2008) has brilliantly united the solemnity of the academic world with the city’s liveliness, the glacial rigorousity of scientific information with the intemperant fervor of the being’s sensitiveness. My work investigates G.I.Tohaneanu’s creation fundamentals, to highlight it’s fundamental characteristics and the way in witch it underlines the specifics of the classical world, followed relentlessly and subtetly describes. His impressive and varied opera – witch contains works of stylistics, linguistic, lexicological, as well as a valuable effort to translate the totality of Vergilius’s writings (Eneida, Bucolice. Georgice) and Macrobius’s Saturnalia – demonstrates a rafinated spirit, mindful to the infinitezimal nuances of the discours, always preoccupied to show the latent valences of the artistic text. At the same time, in the linguist’s vision, the research of language, fundamental tool in knowing the cultural and civilizational spaces, is based imperatively on a diachronic look, as well as interdisciplinary. Embodying the exemplar figure of it’s creator, all of these are illuminated by love and knowledge, fundamental emblems of life and creation; always chained in the teacher’s universe they become living testimonies of a coherent and unitary way of understanding of life, in all of her dimensions.
