This study focuses on the poetic meanings that generates the hromonim black in the poem Love by Mircea Cărtărescu. Black is highly valued by M. Cărtărescu being the essential hromonim around which the whole vision is built in the poem. In this poem we are dealing with a hyper – representation of black, coming up 24 times within the same text and confirms once again its anarchic spirit of postmodernism. Black occurs in association with a recurring motif in the creation of the author – rainbow – the black rainbow , which becomes a profound symbol in the poem’s economy. The black hromonim recovers here its archaic obscure resonances – its primary valences, fecund and fertile.
