Summary/Abstract: It is known that the 1930s have been troubled, with strong tensions, marked by a series of sustained polemic debates, with the intellectual world suffering major ideological splits. Thus, on the public stage of the indigenous intelligence will appear Mircea Streinul, a young writer and follower of the „philosophy of life”, determined to tell the truth that he considered to be defining for the times he lived. The study presents some of the positions and polemics reflecting the thinking of the young generation of Romanian intellectuals in the Bukovinian space, around Mircea Streinul, the ferment of the Iconar Movement, which established itself as an important writer, poet and writer, translator, leading exponent of a group that aimed to reinvigorate the province, to shift the emphasis on the periphery to the detriment of a centrality that he saw as excessive and harmful at the same time.
