Summary/Abstract: For many Romanian writers, the exile represents a period of major changes not only in their lives but also in their writings. A lot of people were forced to leave their countries for political reasons. The Second World War caused a series of disasters in the European history and many people underwent difficult experiences which changed their whole lives. This is why Eliade writes about the importance of the sacred, about the way we can recognize it in our profane world. The power of faith helps modern man escape from his straying in the labyrinth, and guides him to his awakening. For modern people, this awakening signifies a possibility to become free again, at least from a spiritual point of view. But we should be open in front of the miracles in order to surpass the aggressive times of a cruel history.
