Ruxandra Cesereanu is one of the most popular and richest Poet who was born on August 17, 1963 in Cluj-Napoca, Cluj, Romania. Cesereanu devoted part of her research to studying the effects of communist-organized state persecution and to historical investigation of political prisoner during the 1950s and 1960s, as arranged by the communist secret service, the Securitate. Dan C. Mihailescu, referring to Cesereanu in a “ClujNapocan, Transylvanian trident’ “, said that she was one of the “most industrious literary historians and analysts of mentalities, ethno-psychologies, etc.” In 2004, she stated that her contributions to the study of “the Romanian Gulag”, which she refers to as, were intended to help in the “trial for communism in Romania”. Paul Cernat suggests that Cesereanu’s fiction may have a subtle connection to her historical studies. This indicates that Cesereanu may have been interested in the “archeology nocturnal ghostasms”, which is a common theme in her poetry. It may also be related to her interest in “domesticating” a savage imagination that Romanians have created around the topic of communist terror.

Cesereanu also coordinated two volumes that documented the lives of the marginalized in the post-revolutionary era. Cernat says they were both “experimental reportsages”. She also contributed a book about the 1989 Romanian Revolution (Decembrie ’89). Deconstructia unei revolutii, “December 1989. The Deconstruction of Revolution

Cesereanu notes that, although not a trained historian, she sought to contribute material that would bridge a gap in traditional historiography. At the time, speaking of the prison system set in place in the Soviet Union and throughout the Eastern Bloc, Cesereanu stated: “I do not think that the Holocaust and the Gulag should be judged in competition to one another, as I do not believe in a hierarchy of horror. Horror is horror, there is no room set for a first prize with a wreath and then a second place, a third etc. Between the regimes that have produced the Holocaust and those that have produced the Gulag there were differences in the practice of terror, but the goal was one and the same.” She also indicated that her investigations also dealt with politically motivated “fratricide” in general, including the Mineriads of the early 1990s, during which miners from the Jiu Valley assailed the “Golani” crowds protesting in Bucharest.

Cesereanu is a member of the Romanian Writers’ Union since 1994, and of the Romanian PEN Club since 2001. She is also a member of the UBB’s Center for Imagination Studies and of the Echinox Cultural Foundation. In addition to her work as a writer and commentator, Cesereanu has also produced a short documentary film for the Cluj-Napoca branch of the national television channel (Treisprezece biserici, “Thirteen Churches”, 1998), and a four-episode talk show series on cultural issues, aired by the same station during 2000. Cesereanu also organized two cultural events in her native city: a poetry symposium in 1998 and an art exhibit in 1999. The Cluj-Napoca Writers’ Association granted her its Poetry Award on two separate occasions (1994, 2005), and its Essay Award in 1998 and 2001. She is a recipient of Apostrof magazine’s Ion Negoiţescu Award in the Essay category (1998), and received the Lions Club Prose Prize in 2005.

In 1988, Cesereanu was assigned to a teaching job. She taught literature and language in Romanian at schools in Nasaud and Bistrita. Cesereanu was a Cluj- Napoca editor for Transylvania’s Film Distribution Section in 1989, when communism was overthrown. She was appointed editor of the film and movie magazine Ecran in 1990. The following year, she joined the staff at Steaua. In 1998, she was also a Ziarul de Cluj journalist.

Ruxandra Mihaela Cesereanu, also Ruxandra Mihaela Braga, was born August 17,

  1. She is a Romanian writer, poet, essayist and short story writer. Cesereanu is also a journalist, scholar, literary historian, and film critic. He teaches at the Tha Babes-Bolyai University in Cluj-Napoca and is an editor of the magazine Steaua.

Ruxandra Cesereanu was born in Cluj-Napoca. She is the daughter Dometian Teodoziu Cesereanu, a writer, and Aurora Cesereanu, a teacher. She graduated from the Natural Sciences High School (now Onisifor Ghibu High School) and then studied Philology at UBB’s Romanian–Spanish Department (graduating 1985). Her graduation diploma was awarded with a thesis about the poetry of Mihai Eminescu (Moartea, visuel si somnul opera lui Eminescu, or “Death, Dreaming, and Sleep in The Work of Mihai Eminescu”)

In its final part, the volume investigates the proliferation of abusive language and threats in the Romanian press of the early 1990s, focusing on papers who supported the ruling National Salvation Front, in particular Adevărul, Dimineaţa, Azi and the ultra-nationalist România Mare. Notably, this chapter of the book focuses on hate mail received by poet Ana Blandiana, who had become one of the Salvation Front’s most prominent critics, and who, Doina Jela argues, was thus being subjected to intimidation from the part of former Securitate operatives who supported the new authorities. Also according to Jela, Cesereanu read the letters in their entirety (something which their addressee had always refused to do) and used their many claims and calumnies as evidence of a distorted and violent image Romanians in general had of the world at large. Of the book’s perspective on the Mineriads, Marino wrote: “Written in sobre, calm manner, with outstanding clarity, well-informed, this ‘bitter story’ (which we have all lived through) [is] at the level of the best Romanian contributions in this field. And more than once above these.” Noting the impact of “the author’s literary talent” on her scientific work, he praised the work for its “fluent style, without any aridity.”

Cesereanu’s research into violence also extended to investigating the tradition of abusive and demeaning language in Romanian journalistic prose, from the 19th century onwards. She subsequently published the 2003 study Imaginarul violent al românilor (“The Violent Imaginary of the Romanians”), which analyzes the references to violence in articles authored by the celebrated writers Mihai Eminescu, Ion Luca Caragiale and Tudor Arghezi, provides an overview of the violent fascist discourse of the interwar period and World War II (in particular that used by the Iron Guard), and looks into the radicalism of the communist newspapers which monopolized information after

  1. The main focus, Cesereanu writes in the book, was on the “spectacular- inventive” use of “the law breaking register, the bestial, the putrid- excremental and the lecherous ones.” According to Adrian Marino, this signified that the material dealt with was of a “maximal triviality, vulgarity and violence.”
