Figurile Unirii evocate în literatură: romanul istoric Speranța de Mihail Diaconescu
Union Figures in Romanian Literature: The Historical Novel Speranţa by Mihail Diaconescu

Summary/Abstract: Union becomes the subject of a historical novel and its figures are interesting characters in Mihail Diaconescu's Speranța, published in 1984. Based on traditional realism, the historical novel describes all the events that lead to the Big Union Decission on January 24. Speranța illustrates a „program-based literature”, theorized in various studies and articles, on a protoconist line, outdated today, but of great importance in the 70s and 80s. Ignored by the critics, the novel could be recovered by the literature, for the accuracy of the documentation and the artistry with which Diaconescu uses the fantastic, the magic and the symbolic.
