Summary/Abstract: In everything he undertook, as a writer (poet, dramatic poet, prose writer, essayist, memorialist, publicist), but also as a hierarch (shepherd, preacher, administrator, author of religious works), Bartolomeu Valeriu Anania distinguished himself as an imposing personality by dignity, fairness and verticality, beneficial and modeling in society, a personality able, through the Christian, civic and patriotic attitude, to temporarily overshadow his work. He had a sinuous biography, with many dangerous trials, carrying his own cross with falls and rises. In the concrete context of personal biographical becoming, as well as in the contrasting political context of successive regimes (Carlist, Antonescu’s, Communist, post-December), he manifested himself at the same time as a Man of the Church (he entered monachism at the age of 20 and he became, in the end, a hierarch), Man of Letters (with an early debut, at the age of 14, and later with a complex work, of “complete” author) and Man of History a miles Christi for the Church and nation).
