Ion Luca Caragiale

Ion Luca Caragiale was born on 13 February 1852 in Haimanale, in Wallachia, into a family of Greek origin, two of whose uncles ran theatre companies. A copyist, a prompter at the capital's main theatre, a journalist, he was also a school inspector from 1881 and ran a pub. According to Encyclopedia.com, a critic accused him of plagiarism in 1901 over another play, and he had his innocence recognised; an inheritance allowed him in 1904 to settle in Berlin. He died there in 1912, on 9 June.
