N. Crevedia
Nicolae Crevedia (born Niculae Ion Cârstea; December 7, 1902 – November 5, 1978) was a Romanian journalist, poet and novelist, father of the writer-politician Eugen Barbu. Of Muntenian peasant roots, which shaped his commitment to agrarian and then far-right politics, as well as his dialectal poetry and humorous prose, he preferred bohemian life to an academic career. As a writer at ''Gândirea'', Crevedia became a follower of Nichifor Crainic, and worked with him on various other press venues, from ''Calendarul'' to '' Sfarmă-Piatră''. Turning to fascism, he sympathized with the Iron Guard, and, in the late 1930s, contributed to the press campaigns vilifying ideological enemies, while also putting out novels, reportage pieces, and anthologies. His affair with the Iron Guard muse Marta Rădulescu was at the center of a literary scandal, and was fictionalized by Crevedia in one of his novels. Fluent in Bulgarian, Crevedia became press attaché in the Kingdom of Bulgaria under ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

(; literally "Stone-Crusher" or "Rock-Breaker", named after one of the ''Uriași'' characters in Romanian folklore) was an antisemitic daily, monthly and later weekly newspaper, published in Romania during the late 1930s and early 1940s.

Romanian Literature
Romanian literature () is literature written by Romanian authors, although the term may also be used to refer to all literature written in the Romanian language.

Glasul Patriei
''Glasul Patriei'' (Romanian for 'The Voice of the Fatherland') was a Communist Romania's propaganda publication aimed at Romanian emigres, that served the aim of promoting the Socialist Republic of Romania as a harbour not only of socialist ideas, but also as a natural continuation of Romanian nationalist and Orthodox traditions. Romanians with nationalist, Orthodox Christian or far-right credentials (such as people who once had been close to the fascist Iron Guard) were picked as the authors. The journal legitimized the regime by associating with members of the former elite and supported the view that former opponents of socialism were not being discriminated against. The journal portrayed the everyday reality of Romania positively, extolled how culture was now supposedly easy to access and re-interpreted symbolic figures of Romanian nation in a way that fit the regime. Thus, Nichifor Crainic portrayed the proto-fascist Octavian Goga as a peasant poet bemoaning the suffering p ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
