Monk Nicolae Steinhardt was born July 12, 1912. He was Jewish and mostly known for his "Happiness' Diary". His father was the famous architect and engineer Oscar Steinhardt. In 1934 he graduated from the Law and Literature School of the University of Bucharest. In the same year he published under the pseudonym of Antisthius the parody novel "The Same Way as Cioran, Noica, Eliade". Refusing to join and to agree with the Communist ideas, he became a truck driver for a food shop during the Communist occupation of Romania, until he had a serious accident. Following the pleas of numerous friends, he re-entered the literary activity again. Becoming an Eastern Orthodox monk in 1980, he passed away on March 30, 1989 before witnessing the Romanian revolution against Communism.
