THE TRUTH BETWEEN THE LINES
THE TRUTH BETWEEN THE LINES

Summary/Abstract: Europe is a melting pot of cultures due to globalization. I like to think that we are more open-minded now than people were centuries ago, so we are ready to adapt to diversity and change of different kinds. But let’s have a close look to what happened in the past; and for that, we have texts as witnesses. Reading between the lines, we can draw some conclusions on how willing people were to tolerate (if not to accept) others’ opinions, beliefs (either religious, cultural or scientific) and aspirations. In the marginal texts or in the prefaces there are some things hidden from the intolerants’ eyes that we can now discover after careful analyses. We can see the truth beneath as we examine some Romanian texts written by “marginal” communities.
