Horia Stamatu (1912-1989) was a poet, journalist, essayist and translator (from San Juan de la Cruz, Jean Cocteau, Martin Heidegger) and lived about three decades in Greater Romania, the rest of his life (from 1941) being spent in the space of Romanian exile (Paris, Madrid, Freiburg). Our essay (Post-restant. Horia Stamatu ¿ the publicist) identifies the first and the second journalist, corresponding to stages of his publishing activity: from The Annunciation, the official of the Legionary movement (Greater Romania), where the journalist is a rhinocerized Apache; to the second part of his publishing life, writing in exile and publishing in various Romanian language newspapers and magazines, in which new ideas and topics appear, with retouched attitudes and the preservation of a Christian substrate claimed from Biblical texts. Therefore, he wrote verses, articles and essays on the philosophy of culture or the history of the Romanian mind.We perceived the publicist Horia Stamatu sine ira et studio. If the author did not achieve, especially in his Legionary texts, a desirable pathos of distance, we have proposed to follow this grid in our critical evaluative discourse.
