Soon after being freed, he was arrested again and sentenced for "conspiracy against social order",

spending the time during the war in prisons and internment camps: Jilava (1940), Caransebeș
(1942), Văcărești (1943), and create a full socialist consciousness in the people, and that a full
socialist consciousness could only come about if the entire population was made aware of
socialist values that guided society. The Communist Party was to be the agency that would so
"enlighten" the population and in the words of the British historian Richard Crampton "...the
party would merge state and society, the individual and the collective, and would promote 'the
ever more organic participation of party members in the entire social life'".[25]

Doua secvente semnifi cati ve pentru tema dramei sunt: cea din tabloul al II-lea, in care
Ionagaseste un cutit, semn al libertatii de actiune si comenteaza lipsa de vigilenta a chitului, apoi
recomandaca “ar trebui sa se puna un gratar la intrare in orice suflet”, simbolizand ideea ca este
necesara o selectierelationala a lucrurilor importante in viata. A doua secventa este cea in care Iona se

Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej, becoming his protégé. Enticed with substantial bribes, the camp
authorities gave the Communist prisoners much freedom in running their cell block, provided
they did not attempt to break out of prison.[12] At Târgu Jiu, Gheorghiu-Dej ran "self-criticism
sessions" where various Party members had to confess before the other Party members to
misunderstanding the teachings of Marx, Engels, Lenin, and Stalin as interpreted by Gheorghiu-
Dej; journalist Edward Behr claimed that Ceaușescu's role in these "self-criticism sessions" was
that of the enforcer, the young man allegedly beating those Party members who refused to go
with or were insufficiently enthusiastic about the "self-criticism" sessions.[13] These "self-
criticism sessions" not only helped to cement Gheorghiu-Dej's control over the Party, but also
endeared his protégé Ceaușescu to him.[13] It was Ceaușescu's time at Târgu Jiu that marked the
beginning of his rise to power. After World War II, when Romania was beginning to fall under
Soviet influence, Ceaușescu served as secretary of the Union of Communist Youth (1944–1945).

Ceaușescu and other Communists at a public meeting in Colentina, welcoming the Red Army as
it entered Bucharest on 30 August 1944

After the Communists seized power in Romania in 1947, he headed the ministry of agriculture,
then served as deputy minister of the armed forces under Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej, becoming a
major-general. In 1952, Gheorghiu-Dej brought him onto the Central Committee months after
the party's "Muscovite faction" led by Ana Pauker had been purged. In the late 1940s-early
1950s, the Party had been divided into the "home communists" headed by Gheorghiu-Dej who
remained inside Romania prior to 1944 and the "Muscovites" who had gone into exile in the
Soviet Union. With the partial exception of Poland, where the Polish October crisis of 1956
brought to power the previously imprisoned "home communist" Władysław Gomułka, Romania
was the only Eastern European nation where the "home communists" triumphed over the
"Muscovites". In the rest of the Soviet bloc, there were a series of purges in this period that led to
the "home communists" being executed or imprisoned. Like his patron Gheorghiu-Dej,
Ceaușescu was a "home communist" who benefited from the fall of the "Muscovites" in 1952. In
1954, Ceaușescu became a full member of the Politburo and eventually rose to occupy the
second-highest position in the party hierarchy.[10]

Cele mai importante poeme catuliene au insa in centru figura Lesbiei, desi tema iubirii pentru
aceasta e tratata doar in douazeci de poezii din cele o suta saisprezece poeme. Modelul sau literar
este poetesa Safo, iar elegiile sale erotice sunt generate de o dragoste care i se pare chiar lui
insolita si bizara, cauzatoare de rani sufletesti, agitata si nedreapta.
