Summary/Abstract: Romanian cultural space of the fifth decade is the theatre of a fundamental debate on the role of literature in relation to existence. The polemics takes place in the framework of the developments that aim to a paradigm shift in literature, to the establishment of a new aesthetic canon. The young authors of the new generation are the militants of this canonical change, for which they plead in their poetry and articles with an ideological sense. Their thesis states the need that poetry should express the existence in all its stages, reality and the individual with his dramas and ideals. The promoters of realism in art combat, at the same time, aestheticism and literaturization of poetry, the classic model ”art for art”.
