In the former Soviet bloc, it was the poets, dramatists, cartoonists, and novelists whose works encoded forbidden themes of freedom, and who were targeted by the secret police.
Im ehemaligen Ostblock waren Lyriker, Dramatiker, Karikaturisten und Schriftsteller, in deren Werken sich verbotene Botschaften der Freiheit verbargen, das Ziel der Geheimpolizei.
