Bibliography 273 Abstract The nation-state is now the dominant form of sovereign statehood, however, a century and a half ago the political map of Europe comprised only a handful of sovereign states, very few of them nations in the modern sense. Balkan historiography often tends to minimize the complexity of nation-building, either by referring to the national community as to a monolithic and homogenous unit, or simply by neglecting different social groups whose consciousness varied depending on region, gender and generation. Further, Bulgarian and Serbian historiography pay far more attention to the problem of "how" and "why" certain events have happened than to the emergence of national consciousness of the Balkan peoples as a complex and durable process of mental evolution. This dissertation on the concept of nationality in which most Bulgarians and Serbs were educated and socialized examines how the modern idea of nationhood was disseminated among the ordinary people and it presents the complicated process of national indoctrination carried out by various state institutions.

  • Religious History and Culture of the Balkans
    Religious History and Culture of the Balkans Edited by Nicolae Roddy 3. Expected and Unexpected Authorship of Religious Elements in Late Nineteenth, Early Twentieth Century Bucharest Architecture Felicia Waldman, University of Bucharest, Romania Abstract The hodge-podge architectural heritage is among Bucharest’s most unique attractions, a result of the multicultural background of those who contributed to its modernization. In this respect, a paramount role was played by Jewish and Armenian architects, who designed emblematic buildings that still constitute today landmarks of the Romanian capital, but also businessmen who commissioned private mansions and public utility edifices (hotels, restaurants, hospitals, etc.) that transformed the city. From the nineteenth century onwards, and particularly in the interwar period, Bucharest was a crossroad of civilizations, where East met West, and various ethnic and religious groups coexisted. The best exemplification of this outstanding circumstance is the fact that during this time Christian architects designed not only churches, as one would expect, but also synagogues; while Jewish craftsmen decorated not only synagogues, but also churches. Moreover, Jewish businessmen commissioned Armenian architects to design their houses and decorate them with Armenian religious symbols. The 38 Religious History and Culture of the Balkans article brings to light several of the more interesting cases, demonstrating the complexity of religious presence in Bucharest’s architectural legacy. Keywords: religion, churches, synagogues, identity, architecture, heritage, Bucharest, Jewish history, Armenian history Introduction Most historians assert that the history of Bucharest begins with a late fourteenth century citadel perched along the bank of the Dâmbovița river (Giurescu, 42). According to an extant 1459 document, the citadel expanded into a village surrounding the princely residence of Vlad the Impaler, also known as Dracula.

Kiseleff 32 Bucharest Romania , Herastrau Anyone who still thinks that Bucharest is a city of concrete and cement has clearly never been to the city’s lung, the incomparable Herastrau Park. Quite simply, this glorious park, spread over 187 hectares around Herastrau lake is one of the jewels in Bucharest’s crown, which might explain why half of the city chooses to spend its summer Sunday afternoons here. Herastrau was laid out from 1930-36 on what had until then been mainly marshland around the (natural) lake. The Village Museum - which occupies a large part of Herastrau and which is one of its most popular attractions was created at the same time. As early as the late 19th century, however, parts of the lakeshore served as a promenade for Bucharest’s wealthy, and the area surrounding the lake had long since become the most fashionable in the city. Indeed, the residence of Romania’s royal family, the Elisabeta Palace, is found inside Herastrau (although it is closed to the public). The name Herastrau has been in general use since the early 1960s. Herastrau was long neglected in the wake of the Romanian revolution of 1989, as the priorities of a country in transition lie elsewhere. In recent times however, the park has enjoyed much investment and has for a couple of years now once again been able to claim the title of the city’s best.

  • Priest George Zemora – a Sufferer in the Communist Gulag
    PRIEST GEORGE ZEMORA – A SUFFERER IN THE COMMUNIST GULAG Florin DOBREI Abstract: In the mid-twentieth century, in an Eastern Europe abandoned by the Western powers beyond the ‘Iron Curtain’, the Church – the only institution that had the courage to teach a doctrine different than the official ‘materialist atheist’ one – lived through relentless moments. Beaten, marginalized, ostracized by a ‘new society’ whose supreme postulate was to create the ‘new man’ utterly alienated from God, the Church ministers experienced terror and repression (some even death), their only ‘fault’ being to have confessed, served and followed Christ. All these sufferers – some known, others obscure – have written, through their sacrifice and the courage of their testimony, a golden page in the book of immortality of the Church and the Romanian people. One such sufferer (less known in the specialty historiography) was priest George Zemora from Sebeșel (Alba County), spiritual pastor in two parishes of Hunedoara County, Vulcan I and Lunca, who was arrested and interrogated in 1947- 1948, and then relocated to house arrest in Mănăstirea, Călărași County (1951-1955). Keywords: communist gulag, suffering, atheist ideology, priest George Zemora, Hunedoara County. Preliminaries Among the many Orthodox priests suffering in the Romanian communist Gulag – the Romanian Orthodox Church estimates that between 1948 and 1964, one in four priests were arrested, interrogated and sentenced; namely, of the approximately 12,000 existing clergy at the time, about 3,000 of them knew and lived the regime of the prison camps.
