Travel and Escapism: Elvira Bogdan and Olga Caba. Olga Caba and Elvira Bogdan are female writers for whom travelling became an escapist strategy. Thus could they express, in diluted Aesopic terms, their discontent with Romania’s political evolution in the 1940’s and afterward, under the more acceptable mask of longing for other realms. Elvira Bogdan’s lyrical outbursts in Rome or on the Valley of the Loire and Olga Caba’s enthusiastic soliloquies in Scotland turned into double emphasis discourses under the restrictive travelling mode that prevailed before 1990.

Keywords: travel, gender, France, Italy, escapism, discontent
