Eliade's views at the time focused on innovation — in the summer of 1933, he replied to an anti-modernist critique written by George Călinescu:

" A specific aspect of this focus on experience is sexual experimentation — Călinescu notes that Eliade's fiction works tend to depict a male figure " possessing all practicable women in given family ".

Polemically, Călinescu proposed that Mircea Eliade's supposed focus on " aggressive youth " and served to instill his interwar Romanian writers with the idea that they had a common destiny as a generation apart.

Thus, commentators such as Matei Călinescu and Carmen Muşat have also argued that a main characteristic of Eliade's fantasy prose is a substitution between the supernatural and the mundane: in this interpretation, Eliade turns the daily world into an incomprehensible place, while the intrusive supernatural aspect promises to offer the sense of life.

Eliade's 1934 novel Întoarcerea din rai (" Return from Paradise ") centers on Pavel Anicet, a young man who seeks knowledge through what Călinescu defined as " sexual excess ".

Eliade's short story Şarpele (" The Snake ") was described by George Călinescu as " hermetic ".

Uniquely among students of Caragiale's work, George Călinescu argued that the writer's main interest was not in criticizing the liberals, but actually in an overall rejection of the most embedded Junimist tenets, which, in Călinescu's view, had engendered " a lack of faith in the country's own powers ".

Eliade himself referenced the story and Aldous Huxley's experiments in the same section of his private notes, a matter which allowed Matei Călinescu to propose that Un om mare was a direct product of its author's experience with drugs.

Călinescu observed that much of Kogălniceanu's own prose works imitated the style of his friend Costache Negruzzi, without carrying the same artistic weight, while noting that his few works of autobiography featured " pages of gracious good-natured melancholy ", which he attributed to the author's traditional upbringing.

Călinescu criticizes Întoarcerea din rai, describing its dialog sequences as " awkward ", its narrative as " void ", and its artistic interest as " non-existent ", proposing that the reader could however find it relevant as the " document of a mentality ".

According to George Călinescu, Nicolae Iorga was overdependent on his memory, which could result in " utterly fictitious " critical apparatuses for his scientific works.

Ironically, Călinescu had never trusted the safety of his Cadillac, and had repeatedly asked Gavrilă Marinescu to allow him use of an armored car.

One year later, under the National Legionary State ( the Iron Guard's government ), Marinescu and Argeşanu, alongside other politicians, were executed in Jilava ( September 1940 ); it was also at that time that the Călinescu family crypt in Curtea de Argeş was dynamited, while a bronze bust of him which awaited unveiling was chained and dragged through the streets of Piteşti.

The literary creations of Émile Zola were a noted source of inspiration, and the parallel led George Călinescu to propose him and Barbu Ştefănescu Delavrancea as the main representatives of Zola's style in local literature.

Time Magazine described him as a " puppet Premier " of Carol II, whereas historian Joseph Rothschild considered that it was Cristea's vice-prime-minister, Armand Călinescu, who held the power in the Cristea government.

Călinescu developed a strong friendship with Ortiz ; years later, he would give Ortiz credit for helping him " seize " a literary education of extraordinary quality.

Călinescu would always return to this " spiritual father " whenever the difficulties of life seemed to bring him to his knees.

Călinescu later said, " even if not everyone is in a position to become a Pârvan, everyone can see in him a model, that is to say a way in which he too can accomplish the same renunciations.

In May, after witnessing the result of Nazi pressures on Austria ( see Anschluss ), Călinescu decapitated the Guard by ordering arrests of its leaders, beginning with that of Codreanu, as well as many of its members and sympathisers ( including Nae Ionescu and Mircea Eliade ).

Early on, George Călinescu argued that the totalitarian model outlined in Huliganii was: " An allusion to certain bygone political movements [...], sublimated in the ever so abstruse philosophy of death as a path to knowledge.

Călinescu was captivated by Pârvan's erudition and work ethic, but also by his existential philosophy.

Călinescu observed that while Pârvan's natural aptitude was fairly common, his tendency to exercise all the powers of his mind in the ascetic pursuit of an intellectual ideal was transformed into an existential philosophy: Life is transitory, but man can defeat death and oblivion through creation, thus leaving a permanent record of a temporary existence.

One is glory, determined by either work or procreation, and the other the asceticism of religion or magic — both, Călinescu believed, where aimed at reaching the absolute, even in those cases where Eliade described the latter as an " abyssal experience " into which man may take the plunge.

Investigating the works ' main characteristics, George Călinescu stressed that Eliade owed much of his style to the direct influence of French author André Gide, concluding that, alongside Camil Petrescu and a few others, Eliade was among Gide's leading disciples in Romanian literature.

George Călinescu objected to the narrative, arguing that both the physical affair and the father's rage seemed artificial, while commenting that Eliade placing doubt on his Indian characters ' honesty had turned the plot into a piece of " ethnological humor ".

George Călinescu who saw in it " an echo of Nae Ionescu's lectures ", traced a parallel with the essays of another of Ionescu's disciples, Emil Cioran, while noting that Cioran's were " of a more exulted tone and written in the aphoristic form of Kierkegaard ".

Călinescu saw the piece as an allusion to Gnosticism, to the Kabbalah, and to Babylonian mythology, while linking the snake to the Greek mythological figure and major serpent symbol Ophion.

The latter conclusion was partly shared by Călinescu, Tudor Vianu and literary researcher Z. Ornea.

In the latter capacity, Călinescu oversaw actions against the illegal Communist Party: he ordered the troops to carry out arrests of suspected agitators after the miner strike in Lupeni, and ordered troops to open fire on demonstrators during the Griviţa Strike of 1933.

He soon became involved in a virulent dispute with historian Nicolae Iorga, when the latter issued harsh criticism regarding Carol's January 1939 initiative to dress large sections of the society, including Romanian Academy members, in various uniforms ( a measure backed by Călinescu ); Iorga remarked with irony: " I'm prepared to wear the FRN uniform, but allow me to wear a speared helmet on my head, on which to place is, to Impalement | impale the Minister of the Interior ".

In opposition to the Gheorghe Tătărescu PNL cabinet, Călinescu warned against the latter's tolerant stance toward the Legionaries, especially after the murder of Ion G. Duca in December 1933 and the desecration of his memorial plate in 1936 (" The Iron Guard is not a movement of the opinion, but rather an association of assassins and foul profaners of tombs ").

Vianu, together with his friend Matei Călinescu published an autobiographical volume, Amintiri in dialog (" Remembrances in Dialogue ").

Some defenders of this tradition have responded by citing Jewish history of the wall, that the city had been much narrower in Jesus ' time, with the site then having been outside the walls ; since Herod Agrippa ( 41 – 44 ) is recorded by history as extending the city to the north ( beyond the present northern walls ), the required repositioning of the western wall is traditionally attributed to him as well.

Manne, who called the book ‘ one of the most implausible, ignorant and pitiless books about Australian history written for many years ’, himself summed up the case against Windschuttle, noting that Windschuttle's evidence for Aboriginal deaths is derived from a scholar, Plomley, who denied that any estimate for them could be made from the documentary record ; that a scrupulous conservative scholar, H. A. Willis, using exactly the same sources as Windschuttle, came up with a figure of 188 violent deaths, and another 145 rumoured deaths ; that Windschuttle's method excludes deaths of aborigines who were wounded, and later died ; that all surviving Aborigines transported by Robinson to Flinders ' Island bore marks of violence and gunshot wounds ' perpetrated on them by depraved whites '; that Windschuttle cannot deny that between 1803 and 1834 almost all Tasmanian Aborigines died, and the only evidence for disease as a factor before 1829 rests on a single conversation recorded by James Bonwick, and that Aboriginal women who lived with sealers did not, however, die off from contact with bearers of foreign disease ; that Windschuttle likened Aboriginal attacks on British settlers to ‘ modern-day junkies raiding service stations for money ’, whereas both colonial records and modern historians speak of them as highly ' patriotic ', attached to their lands, and engaged in a veritable war to defend it from settlement ; that by Windschuttle's own figures, the violent death rate of Aborigines in Tasmania in the 1820s must have been 360 times the murder rate in contemporary New York ; that Windschuttle shows scarce familiarity with period books, citing only 3 of the 30 books published on Van Diemen's land for the period 1803-1834, and with one of them confuses the date of the first visit by the French with the publication date of the volume that recounted their expedition ; that it is nonsensical to argue that a people who had wandered over an island and survived for 34, 000 years had no attachment to their land ; that Windschuttle finds no native words in 19th century wordlists for ' land ' to attest to such an attachment, when modern wordlists show 23 entries under ' country '.
