Summary/Abstract: The postwar experiment cannot be defined however without referring to the political aspects of the period: the radicalization and the atomization imposed by experimentalism are opposed to the dominant narrative of the political system, dominated by unity. The game between the experimentalist textualism of the 80’s and the political power is illustrative in this regard, considering that the utopia of power is connected to the idea of unity. The 80’s generation of writers imposes an integration of the previous experiments but also their radicalization towards forming a new paradigm; the textualist experiment is a continuation of self-reflexive experiments, which had been initiated by the prose writers belonging to the Târgoviste group.
