Summary/Abstract: This paper proposes to shed light on the Romanian roots of Mircea Eliade and in particular on the period between his return from India in 1931 and 1937, when the Romanian native fascist movement, the "Legion of the Archangel Michael" (a.k.a. the "Iron Guard") reached its peak. Eliade's last years in Romania have been of high interest for scholars when examining his methodological approach to religion in a more comprehensible way. At the same time, this period belongs to Eliade's most delicate years regarding his political engagement.
