Summary/Abstract: Young Writer, Young Critic – Legitimizing the 80’s Literary Generation in the Communist Literary Press. The article aims to investigate the possibilities of a literary group to follow its own legitimacy path on a background defined by a totalitarian society. As part of a wider reflection on the existence of a Romanian literary field in the 1980s, and using a bourdieusian and post-bourdieusian methodological frame, we will overview some moments of the (self)legitimacy trajectory of the literary group known as the 80’s generation, having as starting point the literary press archives of the last communist decade.
