It is a dramatic poem, and its subtitle is &#8222;A Pagan Mystery&#8221;.<br \/>\nThere are several reasons why we have chosen to publish Blaga&#8217;s poem in English.<br \/>\nFirst of all, it was translated by a very gifted Romanian philologist, born in America. Doris Plantus is a writer herself, and not long ago we published her cosmogonic story <i>The Hermit.<\/i><br \/>\nOn the other hand, Blaga&#8217;s poem was published just one year before James Joyce&#8217;s <i>Ulysses,<\/i> and T.S. Eliot&#8217;s <i>The Waste Land.<\/i><br \/>\nEven though Modernism was in full swing, Blaga chose to write a poem about Dacian monotheism and the cult of Zalmoxis.<br \/>\nLast but not least, besides being a writer, Lucian Blaga was also a philosopher, academic, diplomat and member of the Romanian Academy-until he refused to support communism, and was demoted to the position of a simple librarian.<br \/>\nWhile speaking about the remote times of the Getae, of Dacians, and of Zalmoxis-the god that was twice denied by his people-, this book is also a prefiguration of its author&#8217;s fate.<\/p>\n<p align=\"right\"><b>Lidia Vianu<\/b><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><b>Lucian Blaga: <i>Zalmoxis.
