Summary/Abstract: In this article that includes a broad bibliography, we present a modern educational approach, in an attempt to help students have a better understanding in the historical and ideological context in which the Romanian literature from the post-war period was written. So that we interpreted the message and the symbols we had found in the video of Depeche Mode - Where’s the Revolution. We mention the fact that we have issued opinions on the history of communism from a Christian perspective and not a political one. However we think that the interdisciplinary approaches of school themes provided in the curriculum for the national examinations may motivate students, raise the critical spirit in judging different aspects concerning the world of ideas and the visible reality, to determine the students to form an independent way of finding the needed information and also to come out of the rigor of mediocrity that media frequently promotes nowadays.
