Alexandru Depărățeanu (February 25, 1834–January 9, 1865) was a Wallachian, later Romanian poet and playwright. Born in Roșiorii de Vede, his parents were Petru Depărățeanu and his wife Elisabeta (née Altanlâu). He studied in his native town and at Bucharest's Saint Sava College, after which he went to the University of Paris from 1856 to 1858, without earning a degree. From 1860 to 1865, Depărățeanu was deputy prefect of Teleorman and Târgului plăși, and in 1864 was a deputy to the Legislative Chamber.
