☆ Descoperă-l pe scriitorul Lucian Blaga, cel căruia i-a fost dedicată a 30-a ediție a concursului „La izvoarele înțelepciunii”

Pe 14 noiembrie s-a desfășurat etapa republicană a concursului literar „La izvoarele înțelepciunii”, care a fost consacrată vieții și operei blagiene. # A fost profesor universitar la Cluj, Catedra de Filosofie a Culturii fiind introdusă în mod special pentru el. # Deoarece nu a acceptat marxism-leninismul, a fost înlăturat de la catedra de filosofie, lucrând tot restul vieții în cadrul Bibliotecii Academiei. # În anul 1956, Lucian Blaga a fost propus de Rosa del Conte și de criticul Basil Munteanu, dar se pare că ideea a pornit chiar de la Mircea Eliade, pentru a primi Premiul Nobel pentru Literatură. # Despre cum fugea sâmbăta de la școală pentru a-și vedea familia, despre pasiunea pentru lectură, dar și despre multe altele, Blaga a scris romanul autobiografic „Hronicul și cântecul vârstelor”.
