Summary/Abstract: Like most creators, Lucian Blaga was isolated, left at the mercy of the regime. Having convicted himself on painful silence, he consciously contributed to his own isolation building, in such a way, a sort of a barrier between his work and the readers. Despite all that, the name of Lucian Blaga relates to the biggest successes of the Romanian spirituality in general, to which upraise he constantly contributed. S. Puscariu points out the essential qualities of Blaga’s verses and identifies a few themes and characteristics which will dominate the literary critic of Lucian Blaga’s opus: the relationship between poetry and philosophy, imagination and modern verse. Nicolae Iorga also draw attention to the nature of Blaga’s poems which are not time bound, and which transedent the political scene of that time, stressing the musicality of the verses: “this form allows the poet to convey the most delicate strings of thought and the most subtle feelings. We have before us a young man who wants to put the secrets of the world within the readers reach.”
