THE INTERWAR PRESS – AN ESTHETIC AND IDEOLOGICAL INDICATOR. CASE-STUDY: ALICE BOTEZ

Summary/Abstract: One of the most interesting periods of the Romanian culture wasthe one between the two World Wars, when a generationʼs ebullience mapped out ample spiritual trajectories. Gathered around some opinion leaders (Nae Ionescu, Nichifor Crainic, Dimitrie Gusti), young intelectuals rebelling against previous generations prompt a real battle of opinions, housed by a multitude of magazines and newspapers. The inter-war literary press was an authentic barometer of the epoch, minutely reflecting each change of direction, each nuance of a period in which cultural values found an unconfined space of occurence, setting out courses, which, unfortunately would be deviated after the World War II by an adverse history. In the present study, we shall analyse the profile of the Vremea (The Time) magazine, as well as Alice Botezʼs journalistic activity, which, although not very extensive, represents a defining and illustrative stage of her creation.
