In this article the author identified and researched the functionality of intertextualized ethno-folkloric constituents in the structure of the prose of the Romanian Bessarabian writer Spiridon Vangheli during the years 1960-1980 and assessed the level of assimilation, sublimation, individual aesthetic transfiguration of motifs, symbols and images from mythic-folk creation popular in the prose writer's artworks. The investigation naturally starts from the experience of collecting, editing and researching folklore fruitfully demonstrated by the writer in several specialized works. From the multitude of ethno-folkloric constituents, the atmosphere of ballads, fairy tales and legends mainly attracted Spiridon Vangheli. By cultivating prose for children, he also capitalizes on the constituents of this spiritual field destined and created by children. The dimensions of Spiridon Vangheli's folklorism are highlighted by the creative easiness of the personalizing element, not assimilated by the folkloric one, and the individual reconsideration of some ethno-folkloric constituents depending on his ethical and spiritual predilections, on the proportions and the level of interference with folklore, on the valued species, on his literary orientations.
