  • Sozialer Und Nationaler Faktor Der Siebenbürgischen Revolution Von 1848 Bis 1849 in Der Sicht Der Rumänischen Geschichtswissenschaft Nach 1945
    Dionisie Ghermani, München Sozialer und nationaler Faktor der siebenbürgischen Revolution von 1848 bis 1849 in der Sicht der rumänischen Geschichtswissenschaft nach 1945 Die Geschichtswissenschaft des heutigen Rumänien ist ungeachtet ihrer Rückbesinnung auf die „traditionellen nationalen "Werte und Tugenden" — etwa seit 1963/64 — sowie der damit verbundenen schrittweisen Annahme einer national-zentrischen Posi­ tion nach wie vor vom Marxismus geprägt1. Sie faßt dementsprechend den sozial- historischen, ökonomischen und kulturellen Ablauf unverändert als immerwährenden „geschichtlich-kausalen Prozeß" auf, als „stete Entwicklung", die auf die Dauer gese­ hen—von „zeitweiligen Rückfällen" ausgenommen —„positiv" verläuft, deren spätere Phasen also jeweils einen „Fortschritt" gegenüber den früheren markieren, insofern sie durch den Gegensatz zu „überholten" Gesellschaftsformen und Institutionen gekenn­ zeichnet sind und sich auf eine von „sozialer Gerechtigkeit" und vom „wachsenden Wohlstand" getragene Gesellschaftsordnung hinbewegen. So gesehen, wird zum Bei­ spiel die von einem Großteil des magyarischen Adels und Bürgertums geführte Revo­ lution von 1848 im „gesamthistorischen Prozeß" als gegenüber der „Habsburger Feu­ dalordnung" qualitativ „fortgeschrittenes Phänomen" einzustufen sein, im Vergleich jedoch zu der von dem Gedanken „sozialer und nationaler Gerechtigkeit" getragenen Bewegung der Siebenbürger Rumänen und vieler magyarischer Bauern als „rückschritt­ lich" gelten müssen.

  • The Tension Between Self-Reliance
    Looking to Themselves: The Tension between Self-Reliance, Regionalism, and Support of Greater Romania within the Saxon Community in Transylvania 1918-1935 By Rachel Renz Mattair Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Balázs Trencsényi Second reader: Viktor Karády CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2012 Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the author.

CEU eTD Collection Abstract This thesis traces the changes in self-preservation policies of the Transylvanian Saxons from 1918 to 1935 as they transitioned from being a semi-autonomous group to an ethnic minority in the newly established Romanian state following the First World War. It examines the domestic and international alliances of both conservative Saxon elites and social dissidents on the basis of interwar cultural journals and press material. Particular emphasis is placed on the tension between rising National Socialist rhetoric from the German Reich and Transylvanian regionalism in these publications. Unlike many existing studies on this topic, the work offers a balanced approach between internal and external Saxon relations, and distinguishes between Saxon elite narratives and average outlooks. The various movements traced lead to the question of whether historians can even speak of a cohesive Saxon identity during the interwar period, or merely of fragmentation among community members.

  • Stefan Ludwig Roth Simbol Al Istoriei Săseşti Din Veacul Al Xix-Lea
    DUMITRA BULEI Dumitra BULEI STEFAN LUDWIG ROTH SIMBOL AL ISTORIEI SĂSEŞTI DIN VEACUL AL XIX-LEA STEFAN LUDWIG ROTH SYMBOL OF SAXON HISTORY OF THE 19TH CENTURY Abstract: The paper aims to outline the personality and human value of one of the most representative figures of the Saxon community in Transylvania in the first half of the nineteenth century, based on a conference held in Brasov in the spring of 1939 by Otto Folberth, who had been invited by the Committee of the Brasov Section of the Romanian-German Cultural Institute to speak about the relationship that S.L. Roth had with Romanians. Born in Medias, in 1796, he will spend his childhood in a small Saxon village, filled with a certain patriarchal atmosphere, called Şeica Mica, where his father had been elected as evangelical priest. After attending the schools from Medias and Sibiu, he will stop for a year as a student at Tübingen University in Germany. He will become interested in a public figure of the time, Pestalozzi, also known as the teacher of humanity, whose fame radiated from the neighboring Switzerland. Pestalozzi notices from the very beginning the pedagogical competence of the Transylvanian student, that is why he entrusts him with the elaboration of a paper on language teaching methods. To Pestalozzi’s surprise, Roth will refuse several career offers: priest in Venice, educator in London, professor in Freiburg, Germany, close associate of his teacher, as he wanted to return to Transylvania to accomplish his mission as a teacher, an educator for the people. But the reward was not elevated to the greatness of his character.

CEU eTD Collection Abstract This paper examines how the castle of Devín (Slovakia) and the city of Braüov (Romania) have been incorporated into the national canons of the neighboring nations (Magyars, Germans, Slovaks/Romanians). Both spots were used extensively throughout the last two centuries for various purposes, ranging from nation-building to ecclesiastical and communist aims. The study of the changing nature of these sites gives an insight to local societies: it serves as an indicator showing the attitude to nation-building, assimilation, and so on.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION In this work an attempt has bee n made for the first time to analyze thoroughly the political, eth nical, cultural, socioeconomic, a nd histori­ cal situation, particularl y between 1944 and 1980, of the national minorities in Romania. The author's main objective is to give a fact ual account of the existing conditions a mo ng the nationali ties, also con­ sidering, however, the period between the two world wars. This is a topic of considerable complexi ty. In order to gi ve an objective picture of the situation it was necessary to use almost all the more detailed scientific works and studies published in the West, as well as other wri tten material. This incl uded an analysis of official Romanian data; declarations and reports in the press that were not always free of political and ideological doctrine; informat ion provided by sources that were not published but were considered re liable; and, finally, the personal experience of the author in the country as well as his analysis of the limited available material from Romania concerning the immediate postwar years. Transylvania and its fatefu l histori cal devel opment are the center of interest. A short summa ry of its history, indispensable for a better understanding, fo ll ows. The two largest and most significant national minorities, the Hun­ garians and the Germans, played a dominant role in the historical development of the country and the evolution of its culture. The situa­ tion of other nationalities is also analyzed, particularly that of the Jewish minority which today is numerically insignificant but which once played an important role in the development of the country's NATIONAL MINORITIES IN ROMANIA 2 INTRODUCTION 3 culture.

  • History of Replanting Europe with Grafted Grapevine
    The Old Wine Metropolis of Transylvania ® - Mediash - History of replanting ® Europe with grafted grapevine ® EN www.ambrosi.ro AMBROSI TRANSYLVANIA Vine culture was one of the most important occupations of the Transylvanian population, from ancient times, but especially in the last centuries, fact proved in the “800-year-old culture of the vine in the Carpathian Arch” of specialist Hans Acker. The Old Wine Metropolis of Trasilvania is in the middle of the area named after the 12th Wine Country, as it appears in 1532 on the map of Transylvania elaborated by Johannes Honterus. Transylvania Map published by Johannes Honterus in 1532 in Basel. Over times, there are important international recognitions of the quality of the wine produced in Transylvania, such as that of Charles Boner - London 1865. "On tasting, for the first time, good Transylvanian wine, I was astonished at its rich flavor, its peculiarly pleasent freshness, and at the fire lurking within such liquid gold." And in the discution with Baron Liebig: "I know that they (Transylvanian wine) are of rare excellence. Some where sent here to the exhibition and, as I was on 2 the jury, I tasted them. They where delicious, and possesed all the best qualities looked for in wine. We accorded the first prize - the great gold medal - to wine from Transylvania. This wine was from Mediasch". Charles Boner - London 1865. As an important part of wine history in Europe and beyond, Ambrosi alongside Caspari, wakes up memories among the eldest in Transylvania, regarding the grafting of vine.

    Copyright 2015 Pompilia Viorica Burcicǎ AMATEUR THEATER IN HISTORICAL TRANSYLVANIA BETWEEN THE TWO WORLD WARS BY POMPILIA VIORICA BURCICĂ DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2015 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Keith Hitchins, Chair Professor Maria Todorova Professor Emerita Elizabeth Pleck Associate Professor Carol Symes Abstract This dissertation examines amateur theater as an expression of cultural freedom among four ethnic groups inhabiting historical Transylvania, a province attached to Greater Romania after the First World War. By expanding on the current understanding of minority status in a nation- state, this study shows the opportunities provided by the Romanian government for local expression and unity. Through a detailed comparative history of the amateur theater of each ethnic group (the Romanians, Hungarians, Saxons, and Jews), I seek to show the degree to which nationalist regimes allowed them to create through amateur theater a platform for communication and cultural development. Unique at the regional level in scale and ethnic involvement, this artistic practice challenged the newly-formed nation-state and shaped its nationalistic response, but, at the same time, theater playing gave Romanian governments, in particular to the officials from Transylvania, an opportunity to act upon their principles concerning ethnic rights, which they advocated before the First World War. My conclusion is that, overall, they viewed the development of minority amateur theater in favorable terms. Theater appealed to minorities because they could take an active part in their self- organization and could showcase their outlook on life, family values, social relations, and work principles in the public sphere.

  • A Gospell Perspective
    I.Boldea, C. Sigmirean, D.-M.Buda LITERATURE AS MEDIATOR. Intersecting Discourses and Dialogues in a Multicultural World THE ROLE OF THE CHURCH IN THE BUILDING OF GREATER ROMANIA – A GOSPELL PERSPECTIVE Ovidiu Druhora Prof., PhD, ”Aurel Vlaicu” University of Arad Abstract: The present article aims to provide a brief retrospective on the role of the Church in the modern history of Romania and especially in the process of making Great Romania. Uniquely to this approach, we propose to make an analysis from the perspective of the evangelical church and, above all, to write down some historical moments when the Church transmitted a clear message of unity and brotherly connection. The Evangelical Church exists as a reflection in space and time of the triad: scripture - history - the church, and this fact can give us today a paradigmatic vision, one valid and relevant. As it was interpreted and applied in the historical context at the beginning of the 20th century, and equally relevant today, at the beginning of the 21st century. Keywords: church, unity, history, identity, ethnic, culture „Astăzi, la o sută de ani de la înfăptuirea României întregite, este bine să știm că unirea noastră s- a tot făcut, secole la rând, începând cu prima pomenire a numelui de Țară Românească (Romania, Valachia), fapt întâmplat spre finele mileniului I al erei creștine. Românii au intrat în istorie, ca popor neolatin gata constituit, odată cu italienii, cu francezii, cu spaniolii, cu portughezii etc., adică prin secolele al IX-lea și al X-lea, după Hristos, și de-atunci, urmând vechea tradiție moștenită din statul roman, și-au alcătuit comunități organizate.
