Lucian Blaga is, so to speak, the son of his time, witness of a devastating crisis, from which the culture of his age emerged renovated, substantially modified. Moreover, Blaga is, from his first statements, in poetry, in philosophy, in essay writing, in dramaturgy, not an informed spectator, but a performing protagonist, therefore, not a son, but a Father, a creator who, attentive and warned as perhaps no one else in Romanian culture, decides from the beginning for a total confrontation, mobilizing unsuspected energies, converting "libraries" of knowledge, valorizing, with an evaluative sense everything that mattered then in the field of universal knowledge. George Popescu
