Carmen Sylva

    Het literaire werk van Elisabeth van Wied wordt gekenmerkt door lyrische introspectie en een diepe betrokkenheid bij folklore en nationale cultuur. Als koningin-gemalin van Roemenië trachtte zij het literaire landschap van haar adoptieve vaderland te verrijken, waarbij zij thema's als liefde, verlies en identiteit verkende. Haar poëzie en proza putten vaak uit persoonlijke ervaringen en observaties, met behoud van een gevoelige en melodieuze stijl. Door haar geschriften droeg zij bij aan de ontwikkeling van de Roemeense literatuur en liet zij een blijvende indruk achter met haar unieke poëtische visie.
