<p>The study aims to analyze the way in which the posture of the Romanian contemporary writer Simona Popescu is created, based on concepts in the field of postural analysis, as posture and ethos, theorized by Alain Viala and Jérôme Meizoz. With emblems as exuviae, Matryoshka doll, Rubikʼs cube, the image of the collage dilettante, or the one of postman Cheval, the self-image constructed, by discursive means, by Simona Popescu is one of the adult-child, who keeps childhood and youth as defining layers of the mature personʼs identity. The writerʼs fascination with Gellu Naumʼs figure, the subject of her doctoral research, is justified mainly by her interest in collage and by the possibility of using this technique as the instrument of construction of her figure as a writer (the account of her childhood is seen as an attempt to stage surrealism). The analyzed corpus highlights also as representative of Simona Popescu the collectorʼs figure – even the toy collectorʼs figure, for the analysis of which will be used Walter Benjaminʼs famous texts about childhood and dolls (<italic>Enfance.
