Abstract: 

The article is devoted to the Romanian vers libre genesis and its identification among disordered verse forms in the Romanian poetry of the beginning of the 20th century.

By means of statistical analysis of the disordered oeuvres – verses without rhyme, meter and formal stanza – we found out that not all oeuvres with such features may be referred to as vers libre. Among such forms there are the oeuvres which do have some systematic characteristics coinciding with classical, tonic or heteromorphic forms.
