The Romanian Literature Complexes in Post-Revolutionary Curricula

Abstract

After the fall of communism in 1989, the Romanian school made a huge effort in order to recover the works that were prohibited during the communist regime. On the other hand there were writers and works who were abandoned by the curricula and the textbooks because of the author’s colaboration with the communist authorities. The used criteria were often extra-literary showing the complexes of the Romanian literature in the high shool curricula. The aim of this paper is to show these complexes and how they evolved through the post-communist years by now. The method is a comparative study of the curricula, from the late communist years to the post-revolutionary period.
