One of Benjamin Fondane's earliest poetic influences was Tudor Arghezi, a prominent Romanian poet and modernist of the early 20th century. Arghezi's innovative use of language and bold imagery left a lasting impact on Fondane's poetic style. Fondane admired Arghezi's ability to blend traditional Romanian folklore with contemporary poetic techniques, an approach that would later shape Fondane's own artistic vision and contributions to Romanian and French literature.
