Summary/Abstract: There are many blank spaces of Romanian Postwar literature. We are talking about a time prone to mystification, since in communist period to cover the truth was the everyday norm of living, forcefully imposed on everybody. An honest panorama of Romanian literature must first escape the frequent stereotypes that got caught in the web. Sanda Cordoş casts a new light on hidden hues and tints of the subject. She is for the clarification of the unclear zones in the history of Romanian literature. Concepts like dogma, ideology, totalitarianism, evasion, mystification render her discourse as a veritable synthesis of history of literature which is necessary for the challenge of a “wooden” argumentation which flourished in communist Romania.
