But times are hard, and energy is expensive, such that at some point, high in the sky, metres above the earth, it stops still.

In order to illustrate the dynamics and the metamorphosis of canon in the context of the Romanian literature, we will later on focus upon two canon types that, in spite of certain similarities, have a totally distinct profile: the modernist canon and the postmodernist one. Partly opposing the theory of Maiorescu regarding the "forms without gist" Lovinescu also believes that in the development of a culture, the synchrony tendency with the spirit of the time is more important than the national spirit. Mid-way between a form of fatalistic resignation and the tragicomic absurdist dimension present in a number of filmic productions over the decades, the Romanian cultural realm has always manifested an obvious penchant for reinterpreting major historical events.
