| | Literature after World War II (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08) |
 | | After a moment of effervescence and seeking (1945-1947), when a new generation makes itself conspicuous (Geo Dumitrescu, Ion Caraion John Caraion, Stefan Augustin Doinas Stephen Augustin Doinas, Marin Preda, Petru Dumitriu Peter Dumitriu), the Romanian literature adheres to the orientation of the totalitarian policy. |
 | | The years 50 ("the obsessing decade", as the prose writer Marin Preda calls it) create a huge quantity of sub-literature. |
 | | They were followed by the novels Descult (Bare-Foot) by Zaharia Stancu, Nicoara Potcoava by M. Sadoveanu (1952), Poor Ioanide by George Calinescu (1953), Morometii (1955) by Marin Preda, Cronica de familie (Family Chronicle) by Peter Dumitriu (1956) and Groapa (The Pit) (1957) by Eugen Barbu (Eugene Barbu). |
