In short, Literally it means today, in the full age of the reign of quantity, a privileged space, where the exceptional literate students from Timișoara collaborate fully to illuminate the axiological lines of force of our literature.

Also, the colloquium represented the perfect opportunity to celebrate 100 years since the birth of Ion Desideriu Sârbu." The current issue of the student magazine "Literacum" brings together some of these incursions. Bold, the most, or polite, the least, the texts reflect, above all, the seriousness of involvement in the critical act.
