Lucian Blaga în ultimul lustru al vieţii sale
Lucian Blaga, in his Five Final Years

Summary/Abstract: It is known that in the last years of his life Lucian Blaga was marginalized and discriminated by the totalitarian regime installed at the helm of the country; he occupied a modest position as librarian and his work was banned and prohibited to the general public. But despite all barriers and prohibitions he was subjected to, his literary and philosophical writings were highly prized outside the borders of the country, Lucian Blaga being nominated to the Nobel Prize - which the Romanian proletkult republic would not accept, according to the political requirements. Therefore, the communist regime in Bucharest dispatched emissaries to Sweden to make false political allegations in protest of his nomination. The episode is described in detail in his autobiographical novel,”Charon’s Boat”, published posthumously.
