Abstract

The paradigm of exile and return is one of the most cherished themes of world literature, from older to more modern times, as it captures an unavoidable conflict between the protagonist (intellectual), on the one hand, and the political sphere and the masses, on the other hand. Beside its romanticized nature, it performs an extremely important function, namely that of varying the status quo of a particular society frozen in a certain moment in time, once the wanderer returns from his/her exilic experience and mirrors onto society the new perspectives on reality.
