Summary/Abstract: In the early 1980s, Dorin Tudoran joined the few voices that publicly contested the regime. Tudoran spoke out about problems related to culture and literature, but also about proven plagiarism cases involving well-known figures of the literary world. His daring attitude was not without consequences. Harassed by the communist authorities, Tudoran applied in the spring of 1984 for permission to emigrate. On July 25, 1985, after years of persecution, Tudoran managed to leave the country.
