THE MUTE VOICE OF COMMUNIST FEARS
THE MUTE VOICE OF COMMUNIST FEARS

Summary/Abstract: Intensely debated and controversial, the literature from the communist period between 1944 and 1963 became an occasion for the revelation of sacredness in the poetic space. If free speech and writing were censored, then writers resorted to forms of reluctance to communicate with themselves and others. Silence was born where faith, freedom and dignity were condemned. Writers who did not fall prey to Stalinist obedience resorted to mass arrests, torture, physical and emotional torture. In communist prisons, reluctance was a way of survival, and the voice of inner faith spread beyond the bars. Silence, repentance, and faith in salvation became the attributes of confessors. Today the literature born in the communist prisons is still viewed with reluctance, the confessors must be constantly brought before the public who lose their Christian identity. The desecrated world forgets its true confessors who by faith have salvation of the soul.
