Sămănătorul or Semănătorul (] , Romanian for "The Sower") was a literary and political magazine published in Romania between 1901 and 1910.
 Founded by poets Alexandru Vlahuță and George Coșbuc, it is primarily remembered as a tribune for early 20th century traditionalism, neoromanticism and ethnic nationalism.
 The magazine's ideology, commonly known as "Sămănătorism" or "Semănătorism", was articulated after 1905, when historian and literary theorist Nicolae Iorga became editor in chief.
 While its populism, critique of capitalism and emphasis on peasant society separated it from other conservative groups, "Sămănătorul" shared views with its main conservative predecessor, the "Junimea" society, particularly in expressing reserve toward Westernization.
 In parallel, its right-wing agenda made it stand in contrast to the Poporanists, a Romanian populist faction whose socialist-inspired ideology also opposed rapid urbanization, but there was a significant overlap in membership between the two groups.
 "Sămănătorul"' s relationship with the dominant National Liberal Party was equally ambiguous, ranging from an alliance between "Sămănătorul" and National Liberal politician Spiru Haret to Iorga's explicit condemnation of 20th century Romanian liberalism.
