  Article:   CREATION, INTERVIEWS, MISCELLANEA: “MY MOTHER, IRÉN LENGYEL”.

Authors:  DELIA ENYEDI.
 
       
         
  Abstract:  Despite the fact that Irén Lengyel (1900-1980) was the greatest prima donna of inter-war Transylvania, public biographical details are scarce and often inaccurate. The present interview with her eldest son Gabriel Ilieș (b. 1936) provides an intimate account of her career, ended abruptly on charges of irredentism, as well as of her private life, enjoying the privileges of marrying into an aristocrat family and bearing the later persecutions of the Romanian Communist regime.

Keywords: Irén Lengyel, biography, prima donna, Transylvania.
