Rugăciune, rezistenţă, represiune: cazul „Rugului Aprins” de la Mănăstirea Antim
Prayer, resistance and repression: the case called „The Burning Bush (Rugul Aprins)” at the Antim Monastery

Summary/Abstract: „The Burning Bush of the Mother of God” Association represented a community of intellectuals and monastical clergy coagulated around the Antim monastery in Bucharest. Its members, having come from the spheres of journalism, literature, poetry, religion, art, music and even mathematics, transfigured the object of their profession into Christianity, succeeding in outlining landmarks for a more profound experience of the Christian faith. These reasons were considered enough a danger to cause incarceration for a number of 15 participants to the Burning Bush - among them, the spiritual and intellectual elite. Our research inquires whether the spiritual and cultural movement known as The Burning Bush may be considered a response / a reply given by orthodoxy to the communist doctrine and regime.
