Abstract: The paper, as the title has announced, proposes a discussion about Sandu Tudor's newspaper Floarea de Foc („Fire Flower”), political and literary magazine, published sporadically (1932, 1933, 1936). On January 6th, in the art manifesto Sandu Tudor proclaimed the need for an „authentic universal dogma” based on „clear consciousness”, „good thinking” and „clean thinking”. The value of the publication is confirmed by the various subjects and cross-cultural knowledge of his collaborators, some of the leading Trăirists, modernists or political radicals: Mircea Eliade, Emil Cioran, Mircea Vulcănescu, Petru Manoliu, Paul Sterian, Camil Petrescu, Ovidiu Papadima, Petru Comarnescu, Arșavir Acterian, Haig Acterian, Dan Botta, , Henri H. Stahl, Horia Stamatu and Octav Șuluțiu. The director Sandu Tudor manages to attract in his review Floarea de Foc („Fire Flower”) the famously Eugène Ionesco, a stern defender of authenticity, and disseminates throught the magazine his polemical pieces targeting the contemporary literary scene and the mainstream of modernism. „Floarea de Foc” („Fire Flower”), was at the same time an ideologically unregistered journal and, consequently, open to all political opinions. In our attempt to reconstruct a truthful image of „Floarea de foc” („Fire Flower”), we combine the documents from the C.N.S.A.S. (National Council for Studying the Security Archives) archive with interwar press.
