The present work aims to explore the potential of the generational operator to reform the history of the written press in interwar Romania, taking as a starting point the magazine Floarea de foc [Flower of Fire], published under the direction of the director Sandu Tudor, with great interruptions, in the period 1932-1936. More precisely, we will analyze how Sandu Tudor and the collaborators of his publication, prominent members of the young interwar generation, use this as a biographical and methodological notion. Our goal is to answer the following questions: How important was the dynamic of generations in the cultural and ideological space for Sandu Tudor and what kind of narrative did this dynamic generate in his magazine Floarea de foc [Flower of Fire]? How did Sandu Tudor and the collaborators of his magazine relate to their own generation of critics, poets and prose writers? What is the place and role of the generation as a critical narrative tool in the texts published in Floarea de foc [Flower of Fire], compared to other Romanian literary publications? And in general, what alternative scenarios of the history of the written press in interwar Romania could be discovered through a correlation of the intrinsic data collected, mainly, from the discourse analysis of the articles in the interwar press (on a semantic, syntactic, narrative level), with the information extrinsic (ideology, sociogram, social fields) provided, for the most part, from the investigation of the documents drawn up by the Security Service, found today in the files of the CNSAS Archive?

Games and toys play a significant role in children's consumer socialization, shaping their understanding of societal norms through play. Advertisements by businesses often convey specific values to promote and sell these items. Parents, as key influencers, impact their children's behaviour by making purchasing decisions and monitoring advertising's influence. This research investigates parents' perceptions of toy and game marketing through in-depth interviews with 20 participants. Findings revealed that parents recognize the importance of games and toys in their children's development and evaluate products based on their values and children's desires. However, the study also identifies parents' limited media literacy skills and susceptibility to promotional tactics. The impact of values promoted by toy businesses on children raises ethical concerns and calls for marketing regulations. Understanding these dynamics is critical for safeguarding children's well-being and balanced development in the consumer world.
