The Rise and Fall of Nicolae Ceausescu

In fact, the Labour’s day did not promote the image of either the former leader, or his wife. Thus, one might conclude that at that time, the stress was not so much on the individual, but on the event, and society.
For example, the big red title of the first page was “Long live the 1st of May, Day of International Solidarity of Those Who Work,” and on the third page, “Labour Transforms People, ... More

My research will focus on the images of Elena Ceausescu, as promoted by the daily newspaper Scinteia, also taking into account the titles, because they are closely linked to the images, as will be demonstrated in my analysis. Apart the primary sources the present essay will also relate to several scholarly writings of historians, social historians and political scientists that have ravelle different problems of Romanian communism. The books used try to describe the process of how did Elena Ceausescu came to obtain the power. Thus, my essay will try to synthesize a basic bibliography related to a certain period of time as reflected by the leaders’ images promoted by the newspaper Scinteia.
Between 1970 and 1975 one might argue that there is a gradual ascendance in the social status of Elena Ceausescu from a mere appearance in the background to an important social figure who contributes to the implementation of a future cult of personality.
With 1979 her cult of personality received a concrete manifestation in Romanian media and completely established itself in the next years. The period between 1975 and 1979 does not constitute the object of my analysis because after a careful examination one might draw the conclusion that this period is a stagnation in her ascendance, and no really important events occur in what regards this analysis.
Starting with 1979 every political and national celebration was a great opportunity to extol the Party and its leaders. Moreover, it is during this period that Elena’s important role for the country manifested in various ways, congresses, and conferences national celebrations. To stress even more the importance of this period one should mention the fact that before 1979, Elena’s birthdays passed without any mention in the Romanian mass-media.
The Pre-cult of the Personality of Elena Ceausescu
In early 1970 Elena Ceausescu had little public image, if any, as compared to her husband, Nicolae Ceausescu. As promoted by the newspaper Scinteia, she remained in the shadow of her husband. In the first half of the year 1970 Elena Ceausescu appeared only once, when meeting the American astronauts with their wives, at the airport. In the beginning she accompanied her husband on different visits having thus a mere entertaining role and being simply mentioned as “his wife,” in the headlines. Yet, there was no visual representation in the newspaper, either on the 6th of January, or on the 1st of May 1970.
