  Abstract:  Gheorghe Crăciun: the literary theoretician hidden within his prose. The aim of this paper is to analyse Gheorghe Crăciun’s first novel: Acte originale / Copii legalizate (1982) [Original acts / legalized copies] and emphasize the consequences of the fact that theory permeates the fiction. Gheorghe Crăciun is one of the most representative personalities of Romanian postmodernism and an unusual theoretician, who has practiced his writing skills first as a writer, and then gave consistency to his ideas in the theoretical literary studies. This subterfuge allows the theoretician, condemned to be a teacher outside the books, to express himself. Moreover, this novel concentrates most of the ideas ulterior developed in his prose.

Key words: postmodernist, (fake) “textualist”, experiment, metafiction, character as narrator.
