[2] His research at the Institute of Linguistic and Literary History in Cluj contributed to the production of a Chronological Dictionary of the Romanian Novel.

He is also a member of Uniunea Scriitorilor din Romania since 1994, of PEN Club Romania since 2001, of AILC-ICLA (Association Internationale de Littérature Comparée – International Comparative Literature Association) since 2016, and of ESCL-SELC (European Society of Comparative Literature – Société Européenne de Littérature Comparée) since 2022.

The first book, Claustrofobul tells the story of Anir Margus, a young geologist, who is entrusted with the job of stopping water deep in the layers of soil from flooding a town named Clusium.

Anir manages to send the rising water into deeper layers of the soil, and he is elected ruler of the town, replacing Holom, the former president.

[17] The main character of the story, Luiza, is a teenage girl who dreams so much that she begins to lose the sense of reality and starts living psychotic delirium episodes.

Gratiela Benga notes: "Obsessed by oneirism and multiverses, that he also investigates in academic studies and dream diaries (Oniria and Acedia), Corin Braga explores alternative worlds through the net of a labyrinthine and multilayered narrative.

[...] As epic amplitude, Corin Braga's oneiric tetralogy is one of the sound prose projects after 1990, along with the trilogies by Gabriela Adamesteanu, Caius Dobrescu and Nicolae Breban.

"[19] In European comparative literature Braga has done extensive research on the topic of the failed quest of literary characters to find Paradise, Utopia or other sacred places on Earth, on which he has written five books in French.

La Quête Manquée de l'Avalon Occidentale, published in 2006, he analyses a complementary corpus of legends, based on Celtic, especially Irish mythology.

Reviewing the second volume in Revue de l'histoire des Religions, Anna Caiozzo, wrote that "the author's approach is a true synthesis of all the myths that have presided over the construction of an image of paradise on the eastern borders of the world as places both eschatological and promises of personal fulfillment.

In 2012, Braga wrote Les Antiutopies Classiques, in which he revisited the concept of utopia and utopianism, but this time "in terms of its most inauspicious feature: the destructive side of a literary imaginary society.

[24] Using this approach, he directed Enciclopedia imaginariilor din România (2020), a five-volume encyclopedia making a cartography of the literary, linguistic, historical, religious and art representations of Romanian cultural imaginaries and patrimony.

D'Œdipe à Umberto Eco, Braga made the distinction between three definitions of the concept of archetype (ontological, psychological and cultural), which can be used as bases for multidisciplinary hermeneutics in literary analyses.

These can be seen as "méga-récits", theoretical explanations specific to different historical paradigms, towards which the researcher should adopt a "distant theory" position.

[28][29] Reviewing the book, Andrea Cornea wrote in Idei in dialog that "the chapters dedicated to the premodern cartographic imaginary are not only charming and full of substance, but also written with an admirable competence, understanding and adequacy that makes them highly recommendable to anyone studying medieval or Renaissance imagery, and generally to anyone who wants to understand how it worked the European collective imaginary".
