Metaphysical issues of cognition, truth, identity, virtue and value, wisdom and power; problems of ethical, social, political and aes- thetic character, as well as phenomenological, philosophical-theo- logical and linguistic research, are central to Georgian philosophy and exemplify its continuing relevance vis-À-vis the Western tradi- tion in its broadest sense. Although philosophical ideas in Georgia rarely matured into a well-balanced and self-sufficient system, as original conceptions one may distinguish some ideas of Christian Neo-Platonism and Alethological Realism. The volume is dedicated to the 100th anniversary of Ivane Javakhishvili Tbilisi State University. Scientific Editors: Cornelia B. Horn Basil Lourie On the cover there is a portrait sketch of Niko Pirosmani (Nikala) by Pablo Picasso. One of the most influential artists of modernity was never personally acquainted with the early XX cen- tury Georgian primitivist painter, but he knew his works.

  • ANTHIM the IVIRITE an EXPONENT of CAUCASIAN and ROMANIAN SPIRITUALITY in the 18TH CENTURY Angela BOTEZ∗, Victor BOTEZ∗∗
    Annals of the Academy of Romanian Scientists Series on Philosophy, Psychology, Theology and Journalism Online ISSN 2067 – 113X Volume 8, Number 1–2/2016 33 ANTHIM THE IVIRITE AN EXPONENT OF CAUCASIAN AND ROMANIAN SPIRITUALITY IN THE 18TH CENTURY ∗ ∗∗ Angela BOTEZ , Victor BOTEZ Abstract. The paper approaches the theme about Anthim the Ivirite is an exponent of Romanian and Caucasian spirituality. Honouring this personality we start from the observation that his spiritual heritage remains relevant over the ages. Some biographers claim that Anthim the Ivirite was from a noble family. His life was as well dramatic, as noble. Anthim the Ivirite remains in Romanian history as a deeply religious man and a man of many talents. He spoke several foreign languages among which Romanian, Greek, Arabic and Turkish. Saint Anthim was a scholar, a printer of religious writings, he wrote religious literature and succeeded to leave a deep mark in the Romanian culture that times undimmed. We consider relevant also that among the important anniversaries of the year 2016 along with the anniversary of Saint Anthim the Ivirite the Romanian Orthodox Church celebrates all the Romanian Church typographers who have contributed fundamentally to a rich religious culture in Romanian. A religious journalist notice for a specialized publication that The fact that the Romanian Orthodox Church, under the clear vision of His Beatitude Patriarch Daniel has chosen to inscribe amongst the paramount holidays of the year 2016 the Church typographers represents a memorable and soul-uplifting gesture, a gesture of conscience in agreement with all who wanted and succeeded to conquer time through the eternity of the typed letter, taking the Word of God in all the four skies and seeding the values of Christian faith and Christian moral in the hearts and thoughts of all Romanians .

  • The Role of the Romanian Printing Press in Creating a National Identity
    7 Iulian Boldea (Coord.) Globalization and National Identity. Studies on the Strategies of Intercultural Dialogue COMMUNICATION, PUBLIC RELATIONS AND JOURNALISM SECTION THE ROLE OF THE ROMANIAN PRINTING PRESS IN CREATING A NATIONAL IDENTITY Agnes Terezia Erich Prof., PhD, ”Valahia” University of Târgoviște Abstract: The printing press was one of the reasons behind the social, political and psychological faced by mankind over the centuries, having an immense influence on every aspect of universal culture. The great historians suggest that the printing press was one of the instruments that influenced the production of major changes in science, religion, politics and our way of thinking, being the first means of mass communication. The appearance of printing press with mobile letters led to revolutionizing communication system entirely. From then until now the book has gone through a number of innovative techniques for multiplication so that more often now we talk about eBook, which tends to replace traditional books. The time of occurrence of the printing press in Wallachia, at the early sixteenth century, is an act of culture and civilization because it demonstrated the stage of development of Romanian culture at that time, occupying a prominent place in southeast European culture space. In this paper we try to emphasize the role of printing press in the development of national identity but also its influence in southeast European space. Keywords: Romanian printing press, national identity, Romanian culture, Targoviste, Wallachia, book history In Notre Dame de Paris Victor Hugo depicts the archdeacon Claude Frollo holding a printed book open on the table and looking towards the cathedral, exclaiming: This will kill that.

  • Worship and Liturgical Reform in the Orthodox Church of Transylvania in the 17Th Century
    Worship and Liturgical Reform in the Orthodox Church of Transylvania in the 17th century Prof. Ciprian STREZA* Abstract: In the century of Reformation and in defiance of a decided opposition com- ing from the Byzantine-Slavic Orthodoxy observed in the Provinces of Wallachia and Moldavia, the Romanians of Transylvania managed to find a way to introduce their national language in the Church, by gradually translating those texts that were vital for the liturgical and spiritual life of a parish. The analysis of the mis- cellaneous Manuscript 19 from the Library of the Theological Faculty in Sibiu re- veals a lot of information about the pioneering work that the priests and hierarchs in Transylvania had to do in order to have the Romanian language introduced in the services of the Church. Keywords: Liturgy, Liturgical Tradition, Transylvania, Liturgical Manuscripts, Church in Transylvania The translation of liturgical texts into the oral languages of various nations has always been a lengthy and difficult process, no matter where or in which century it was endeavoured. The shift from the “sacred” liturgical languages to the worship in the oral language of a people was and still is one of the greatest challenges that the Eastern Orthodox priests are faced with. The inestimable legacy and beauty of the millennial liturgical tradition, bequeathed to forthcom- ing generations by way of classical languages, has gradually become a burden and a cross too heavy to bear in a world of constant change and transformation, * PhD. Ciprian Streza, Professor at the “Andrei Şaguna” Orthodox Faculty of Theology, “Lu- cian Blaga” University of Sibiu, Romania.

New Contributions on his Life and Printing Activity Nicolae V. DurÖ Full Member of the Academy of Romanian Scientists (Presented by Academy Member Giorgi Kvesitadze) ABSTRACT. “Antimoz Iverieli” - together with his fellow laborer, the Romanian Michael Stephen (Stepaneshvili), - contributed to the promotion and development of the Romanian and Georgian humanist christian culture by printing books in the language of the two peoples, Romanian and Georgian. Among others, in our paper, we drew the attention to the informed readers about the existence of some gaps and inaccuracies in the Romanian and Georgian literature of specialty on the life and printing activity of Anthim the Iberian (the Georgian), and we brought some new clarifications and contributions. Regarding the life and the printing activity of the great humanist and scholar, Anthim the Iberian, the Metropolite of Ungro-Wallachia (1708-1716), among many omissions and inaccuracies found in Romanian and Geor- gian literature of specialty we mentioned only a few of them, namely: a) We have no clear information on his birth date; b) It is not known yet where Andrei took the monastic vows; c) We do not know where he learned the art of printing; d) It is not known exactly the date of the arrival of Andrei (Anthim) on Romanian soil. © 2016 Bull.
