Dumitru Theodor Neculu, Date of Birth, Place of Birth, Age, Net Worth, Biography

Dumitru Theodor Neculu?a (October 3 [O.S.
September 20] 1859–October 17, 1904) was a Romanian poet. Born in Târgu Frumos, his parents were Toader Neculu?a and Zamfira a Ciubotari?ii, poor peasants.
He had to earn a living from age ten, working as a shoemaker's apprentice.
His formal education was limited to two grades of primary school, but his passion for reading and love of music made him an autodidact.
A socialist activist, he remained loyal to the Marxist faction led by I.
C.
Frimu following an 1899 split in the movement.
He made his literary debut in 1894 in Icoana vremii, under the name D.
Niculescu.
His work also appeared in Lumea noua, România muncitoare, Viitorul social and Lumea noua literara ?i ?tiin?ifica.
His only book appeared posthumously in 1907 as Spre ?armul drepta?ii.
In Icoana vremii, he also published two prose pieces without particular artistic value, as well as several articles that put forth his credo of a politically engaged poet.
His poems were partly inspired by George Co?buc and Mihai Eminescu.
They reach at least the average quality of contemporary verses, and along with discussing then-current themes (suffering brought about by love, melancholy, vibrations before nature), they bring new elements such as comradeship with those who suffer and an urging toward revolution and belief in the future.
Neculu?a died in Bucharest.
In 1948, when it revamped the Romanian Academy, the new communist regime selected him as a post-mortem member.
