Constantin Gane, Date of Birth, Place of Birth, Age, Net Worth, Biography

Constantin Gane (March 27, 1885 – April or May 1962) was a Romanian novelist, amateur historian, biographer and memoirist.
Born into the boyar aristocracy of Western Moldavia, he worked as a lawyer in Bucharest, achieving literary notoriety with his recollections from the Second Balkan War and the Romanian front of World War I.
By the 1930s, he was primarily a writer on historical and genealogical topics, famous for his contribution to women's history.
An apologist for Romanian conservatism and Junimism, Gane also completed in 1936 a biography of Petre P.
Carp.
He was editor at Convorbiri Literare and a columnist for Cuvântul, also putting out his own magazine, Sânziana. The late 1930s attracted Gane into fascist politics, leading him to join the Iron Guard.
This in turn led to his marginalization and internment by the National Renaissance Front government.
Returning to prominence during World War II, when the Guard produced its National Legionary State, Gane served as Romanian ambassador to the Kingdom of Greece, then retired from politics and resumed his work in literature.
Again repressed following the establishment of a Romanian communist regime, he spent 13 years in confinement, ultimately dying at Aiud prison in 1962.
His work was banned by communist censors, then selectively recovered from 1969.
It was revisited and republished in the post-communist decades, although interest in it remained marginal.
