Abstract

[In the archive of the National Museum of Romanian Literature there is a remarkably interesting set of photographs. They depict a group of happy youngsters in their mid-20s on a sort of “holiday game” in the Bucegi Mountains. In these photographs, taken in July 1932, we see Mircea Eliade (recently returned from India), Mihail Sebastian (recently returned from Paris), Haig Acterian, Mihail Polihroni1ade, Marietta Sadova, Floria and Sylvia Capsali, Mac Constantinescu, and others.2 Ethnically heterogeneous as it was—Romanians, Jews, Greeks, Armenians, and others—this was a typical group of friends in interwar Bucharest. The usual examples of multicultural and multiethnic towns of Greater Romania include Timişoara, Cernăuţi, Brăila, and some others. Bucharest is always forgotten, though it, too, was a multiethnic, multicultural, multilingual, and multi-confessional city.]
