Donar Munteanu was a Romanian poet, representing the provincial wing of Romanian Symbolism, Convorbiri Critice circle and, later, the Gândirea literary movement. He was originally a disciple and close friend of the Symbolist doyen, Alexandru Macedonski; one of the few youngsters to remain by Macedonski's side into the 1910s, he witnessed first-hand the various literary controversies of the Belle Époque. He completed studies in law at the University of Bucharest, and drew public attention as an activist and journalist, supporting political and social causes dear to Romanian nationalism. Generally considered a good, but not great, author, from his thirties and into old age Munteanu belonged to the devotional school of Orthodox-Church writers, producing mostly sonnets.
