Emil Gârleanu (January 4/5, 1878 – July 2, 1914) was a Romanian prose writer. Born in Iași, his parents were Emanoil Gârleanu, a colonel in the Romanian Army, and his wife Pulcheria (''née'' Antipa). He began high school in his native city in 1889, but withdrew after the first three grades. He then entered the School for Soldiers' Sons in the same city, where one of his classmates was Eugeniu Botez. In 1898, he enrolled in the Infantry School and was assigned to the ''Ștefan cel Mare'' 13th Regiment. Due to his journalistic activity, prohibited by the rules, he was transferred to Bârlad as a disciplinary measure. His literary debut took place in 1900, in ''Arhiva'' magazine, where he published the poem "Iubitei" and the sketch "Dragul mamei", both signed with the pen name Emilgar. In 1900, Gârleanu enrolled in the literature faculty of Iași University, but did not attend classes. Publications that ran his work include ''Arhiva'', ''Evenimentul'', ''Sămănătorul'', ''Făt-Frumos'', ''Luceafărul'', ''Albina'', ''Neamul românesc'', ''Convorbiri Literare'', ''Convorbiri Critice'', ''Flacăra'', ''Seara'' and ''Revista idealistă''; among the pen names he used were Emilgar, Em. Maril, Gladiatoru and Glaucos.〔 Together with George Tutoveanu and D. Nanu, he founded the ''Sămănătorist'' magazine ''Făt-Frumos'' at Bârlad; it ran from 1904 to 1906. He resigned from the army in 1906 and moved to the national capital Bucharest. He was an admirer of Nicolae Iorga's and influenced by his social and aesthetic ideas, as can be discerned from his first book, the 1905 ''Bătrânii. Schițe din viaţa boierilor moldoveni''. In turn, Iorga commented favorably on Gârleanu's prose work. A familiar figure in the capital's literary bohemian scene, he subsequently entered the ''Convorbiri Critice'' circle, where Mihail Dragomirescu became his new mentor. In 1908, Gârleanu helped lay the foundations for the Romanian Writers' Society, of which he was elected president for 1911-1912. From 1911 until his death in 1914, he directed the National Theater Craiova, where he hired Liviu Rebreanu as literary secretary. In the year of his premature death, he published ''Proza'' magazine, the entirety of which he wrote himself. His translations included Guy de Maupassant (''A Life''), Alphonse Daudet (''Sapho'', ''Artists' Wives'') and Octave Mirbeau. He published popular editions of Vasile Alecsandri, Grigore Alexandrescu, Ion Creangă, Mihail Kogălniceanu and Costache Negri, as well as a revised and enlarged version of Ion Barac's ''One Thousand and One Nights'' translation.〔 Gârleanu was a minor prose writer, imbued with nostalgia for a traditional world in which he evokes romantic, "unadaptable" and defeated ''boyar''s, in the style of Ioan Alexandru Brătescu-Voinești, I. A. Bassarabescu and Mihail Sadoveanu, but with an added component of romantic melodrama. His preoccupation for dramatic conflict and novel psychological enquiry reveal a more authentic side to the realist narrator of ''Nucul lui Odobac'', ''Punga'' and ''Înecatul''. His melancholy, lyricism and gentle irony come to the fore in the naturalist vignettes of ''Din lumea celor care nu cuvântă'' (1910), precursors to the stories of Tudor Arghezi.〔Aurel Sasu (ed.), ''Dicționarul biografic al literaturii române'', vol.
