PENTRU O NECESARĂ UNITATE A ISTORIEI LITERATURII ROMÂNE – LITERATURA EXILULUI
For a necessary unity of the Romanian literature. The literary exile

Summary/Abstract: Due to its real value, and also to its international recognition in many cases, the Romanian literature written in exile could be perceived as an unique phenomenon. The example of Vintila Horia, a writer who gained the Goncourt prize for his novel God was born in exile, a book translated in more than 40 languages and since then reprinted in many editions, gives proof of the quality of Romanian exile; the novel 25th Hour, by Constantin Virgil Gheorghiu, also translated and published in many idioms could be another example, as well as Constantin Amariutei who received the Rivarole prize, in 1955, for the novel Le Paresseux, and Prix de la Fondation del Duca for La Fiancee du silence, in 1957; Alexandru Busuioceanu, a poet, critic and historian of arts, a member of Academia de los Once, was another Romanian writer who received an important prize – Juan Valera, in Spain, and, as a poet, he was included in the important Histoire illustrée de la littérature espagnole. Thise kind of examples could continue.Unfortunately, in Romania, in some important histories of literature, their names and especially their books are often excluded. This ignoring reminds us the almost similar situation in the communist regime when the works of the intellectuals from exile were forbidden.Taking into consideration that the history of the Romanian literature cannot be complete and cannot have its real scientific value without the books published in exile, in our paper we point out the true situation of the current reception of the literature from exile. Actually, it is a pleading for the unity of Romanian literature anywhere it was created.
