Summary/Abstract: It is almost inexplicable that huge capital of influence in the case of the Parisian critics of Radio Free Europe, knowing that writers in exile not separated from their mother tongue, and which does not forge a new literary career from the very ground, are lost in the condition of obscure exile, without any influence upon their native literature, as happened with most of them, exile literature meaning not more than a province of the national literature. The authority and influence of Monica Lovinescu and Virgil Ierunca represent the turning point that will influence not only literary criticism during communism, but, decisively, the evolution of the cultural policies after the collapse of the regime, in December 1989.
