Abstract
The article seeks to provide a partial but genuine account of the translations from English and
American literatures into Romanian in the censorship-governed, communist period. It rests on
the historical, political and ideological pre-requisites that set the scene for translational censorship
in Romania and focuses on issues like: the number of published translations, editorial policies,
revision methods, translators and their status. Finally, it overviews the 21st century debates and
further investigative initiatives on censorship and translations.
