    PORTRETUL PERECHII PRINCIARE MOŞTENITOARE FERDINAND ŞI MARIA DIN VIZIUNEA REGINEI ELISABETA A ROMÂNIEI ÎN SCRISORI PERSONALE ŞI TEXTE PENTRU PUBLICUL LARG * Silvia Irina ZIMMERMANN Abstract: Several literary texts of Carmen Sylva (penname of the Queen Elisabeth, consort of King Carol Ist of Romania) contain autobiographical aspects, but there are only a few diaries she published, such as Pe Dunăre (Sailing the Danube River, 1905), where she writes about the members of the Romanian royal family. Whereas in the autobiographical works Carmen Sylva draws a mostly positive image of the royal family, the personal correspondence of the Queen reveals the whole range of intimate sentiments, hopes, disappointments, and resentments regarding her life and family relationships. In her letters to her princiary family in Neuwied and to her husband, King Carol Ist, she writes frankly, often critically, sometimes caustically, about the family members including the hereditary couple Ferdinand and Marie („Nando” and „Missy”). Keywords: King Carol Ist of Romania, Carmen Sylva – Elisabeth of Romania, King Ferdinand of Romania, Mary of Romania, royality, literature, history, letters. „Carmen Sylva vedea cu ochii ei, auzea cu urechile ei, vorbea cu limba ei” – astfel o caracteriza Principesa Moştenitoare Maria pe prima regină a * Lucrarea a fost prezentată în cadrul simpozionului organizat de Muzeul Naţional Peleş, „Reşedinţele regale de la Sinaia.

Mai mult decât atât, prima regină a Românei, Elisabeta de Wied, a avut o mare notorietate la vremea ei, datorită activităţii literare sub pseudonimul Carmen Sylva, sub care, de altfel, nu şi-a ascuns adevărata identitate de regină.

  • Italian Historical Migration and Investments in Modern-Day Romania
    CA' FOSCARI UNIVERSITY OF VENICE UNIVERSITY OF HOHENHEIM Double Degree Laurea Magistrale in Economia e gestione delle aziende Master of Science in International Business and Economics Department of Management Associate Professor Dr. Giovanni Favero Master-Thesis Italian Historical Migration and Investments in Modern-day Romania Liviu Constantin Jakob 848196 / 425517 [email protected] [email protected] Venice, October 9th 2014 1 Executive Summary The present master thesis analyses the common historical and economic relationship between Italy and Romania, two countries of Latin origin that have been both founded by the middle of the 19th century, through the unification of different former states of same roots, language, culture and history. The thesis is divided into five chapters. The first chapter covers the middle ages and then the period from the 19th century until 1945, when Italian craftsmen, especially from the provinces of North-Eastern Italy, came to the newly established Romanian Kingdom, laying the foundation for the nowadays officially recognized Italian minority in Romania. The second chapter presents the economic and social relationships between Italy and Romania during the time of the communist regime, which was imposed to Romania by the Soviet Union after World War 2 and lasted until the end of 1989. Chapter three presents the status of the Italian minority after the revolution of 1989 and until today. After the fall of the Iron Curtain, the markets of the former communist states in Eastern Europe were opened to western products and investments. Also Romania opened its economy step by step during the transitional period from communism to capitalism and free market.

  • Writing Queens of Romania, Elisabeth (Carmen Sylva) and Marie
    “Carmen Sylva, when she discovered that I was writing, instead of laughing at me The Child of the Sun and being ironical about my modest attempts at literature, encouraged me from the very first in every way. She was getting old, her imagination was running dry, and Royal Fairy Tales and Essays by the Queens of Romania, she declared that mine had come just in time to replace hers, which was a generous thing to say. She declared that it was a happy and blessed discovery that I could Elisabeth (Carmen Sylva, 1843–1916) and Marie (1875–1938) hold a pen, and no end of kind and enthusiastic things. She spurred me on to write, and each time I had finished a story she immediately wanted to have it so as to Selected and edited, with an introduction and bibliography by translate it into German.” Silvia Irina Zimmermann Queen Marie of Romania about Carmen Sylva (Queen Elisabeth of Romania) Royal Fairy Tales and Essays by the Queens of Romania The history of the monarchy in Romania and of its four kings would be incomplete without the story of the queen consorts, who seem to have been even more fascinating personalities than the kings were. Especially the first two queen consorts, Elisabeth (Carmen Sylva) and Marie of Romania, became famous as writers during their lifetime. They both wrote in their mother tongues, Elisabeth in German and Marie in English, and published many of their books, not only in Romania, but also abroad, thus reaching a widespread readership, worldwide publicity, and literary recognition.

  • Britain, the Albanian Question and the Demise of the Ottoman Empire 1876-1914
    Britain, the Albanian Question and the Demise of the Ottoman Empire 1876-1914 Daut Dauti Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Leeds Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Cultures - School of History January 2018 1 The candidate confirms that the work submitted is his own and that appropriate credit has been given where reference has been made to the work of others. This copy has been supplied on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. The right of Daut Dauti to be identified as Author of this work has been asserted by him in accordance with the Copyright, Designs and Patents Act 1988. 2 Acknowledgments I am indebted to many friends and family members who encouraged me to undertake this research. Grateful thanks are due to my supervisors, Professor Holger Afflerbach and Dr. Nir Arielli, who were a constant source of advice. I wish also to thank my wife, Bukurije Dauti, for accompanying me to different archives and helping to type and classify documents. Without their help, this dissertation would not have been possible. 3 Abstract This thesis is based on a wide range of primary and secondary sources and explores British policy towards the development of the Albanian national movement and the parallel demise of the Ottoman Empire. It pursues three major objectives. Firstly, it argues that during the period under discussion (1876-1914) Britain had only a limited involvement in the Albanian Question because of a lack of any major interest in Albania.
