description The present paper presents the Norwegian author Knut Hamsun as he has been perceived in the Romanian literary and cultural frame between 1919-1926. Such a work intends to do research upon relevant articles written in this period. His positioning as a well-established predecessor within the modernist European literary framing is empowered by biographical information to be found in abundance in a wide range of literary specialized magazines. Among them, „Adevărul Literar şi Artistic”, „Sburătorul Literar”, „Viaţa Literară”, or „Viaţa Românescă”. The work is structured on a chronological overview of his reception in the Romanian culture from the interwar period. The novels whose reviews were shortly mentioned are “Pan”, “Victoria” and ‘Hunger”. The translators are also to be mentioned, given the fact that they are outstanding figures for the Romanian culture. The biographical details concern his winning of the Nobel Prize in 1920, and how this was perceived by the Romanian literary critics. More precisely, if there is any shift in the perception of the author before and after the Nobel award.
