Name Nicolae Beldiceanu | ||
Nicolae N. Beldiceanu (May 15, 1881–June 9, 1923) was a Romanian short story writer.
Born in Radaseni, Suceava County, his parents were Nicolae Beldiceanu and his wife Aglaia (nee Lates). He studied at the National College in Iasi, where one of his classmates was Mihail Sadoveanu, with whom he would later translate Ivan Turgenev's Hunting Sketches. His first book was the 1905 Chipuri de la mahala; this was followed by Cea dintai iubire (1906), Maica Melania (1909), Povestiri marunte (1909), La un han, odata... (1911), Neguri (1911), Chilia dragostei (1913) Fetita doctorului (1914), Fantana balaurului (1921) and Ospatul (1921). Magazines to which he contributed include Samanatorul, Viata Romaneasca, Viata sociala, Flacara, Luceafarul and Insemnari literare. He died in Sibiu. Beldiceanu's works feature Samanatorist and Poporanist touches, showing a sentimental narrator, a naively romantic individual who rarely achieved artistic success.
