103 Considerations on the Appearance And
CONSIDERATIONS ON THE APPEARANCE AND DEVELOPMENT OF HUMANITARIAN LEGISLATIVE NORMS IN THE FRAMEWORK OF INTERNATIONAL RELATIONS DURING THE MIDDLE AGES Vitalie RUSU* Abstract During the Middle Ages, war did not aim at glory, but interests, and the peace state was not considered honourable, but humiliating, as initially, the causes of a war could be: the obligation to avenge an offence or a crime, the conflicts between suzerains and vassals, the campaigns against some cities or ending rebellions. Most of the time, for kings, land owners and knights, war was the best choice to prove their power and to increase their wealth. The reason was the spoils of war. However, in all those conflicts, human people were affected, thus generating the need to develop some specific norms in order to protect them. Keywords: Humanitarian Law, war, conflict evolution, early international relations 1. Introductory Remarks At the beginning of feudalism, conquest wars and wars carried out for obtaining supremacy on vast areas were very frequent, and the ways and methods used in fights were very cruel. Later on, the problem of arguing a ―rightful‖ war became a problem. In this respect, regardless of the country, we shall not overlook the following moments: - after the period of feudal conflicts (11th - 12th centuries) an active struggle for limiting and forbidding armed conflicts began. During the same period, the rule according to which war can only be declared by the king was established; - gradually, the so called legal grounds for a ―rightful‖ war appear, among them the returning of stolen property and the country‘s defence. -
Greek As Ottoman? Language, Identity and Mediation of Ottoman Culture in the Early Modern Period1
Greek as Ottoman? Language, identity and mediation of Ottoman culture in the early modern period1 MICHAŁ WASIUCIONEK New Europe College Bucharest/LuxFaSS Abstract The scope of the paper is to examine the role of Greek as a conduit for the flow of cultural models between the Ottoman centre and the Christian periphery of the empire. The Danubian principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia witnessed throughout the early modern period a number of linguistic shifts, including the replacement of Slavonic literature with the one written in vernacular. Modern Romanian historiography has portrayed cultural change was a teleological one, triggered by the monetization of economy and the rise of new social classes. What this model fails to explain, though, is the partial retrenchment of vernacular as a literary medium in the eighteenth century, as it faced the stiff competition of Greek. The aim of this paper is to look at the ascendancy of Greek in the Danubian principalities and corresponding socio-economic and political changes through Ottoman lens. Rather than a departure from the developments that facilitated the victory of Romanian over Slavonic, the proliferation of Greek can be interpreted as their continuation, reflecting the growing integration of Moldavian and Wallachian elites into the fabric of the Ottoman Empire at the time when a new socio-political consensus was reaching its maturity. By its association with Ottoman-Orthodox Phanariot elites, the Greek language became an important conduit by which the provincial elites were able to integrate themselves within the larger social fabric, while also importing new models from the imperial centre.

Dacă Pe Întreaga Perioadă a Epocii Medievale Conştiinţa Supremă Era
Studiu de caz Formarea constiintei istorice Dacă pe întreaga perioadă a epocii medievale conştiinţa supremă era cea religioasă, manifestată prin apartenenţa la un ansamblu de valori spirituale ce ţineau de domeniul sacrului, începând cu Umanismul Renascentist se va naşte un alt tip de conştiinţă, şi anume, conştiinţa istorică. O astfel de conştiinţă reprezintă atât înţelegerea identităţii trecutului şi a tradiţiei istorice, cât şi a comunităţii de interese, de scopuri şi idealuri. Conştiinţa istorică se impune odată cu apariţia Umanismului Renascentist, tocmai pentru că acest curent pune foarte mult accent pe ideea că omul este înzestrat cu raţiune de extracţie divină şi de aceea trebuie să-şi cunoască existenţa, lumea în care trăieşte, să-şi construiască o ierarhie valorică într-un univers al său. Cu alte cuvinte, omul devine cosmogonul propriului univers şi, în consecinţă, îşi va putea domina existenţa prin cunoaştere şi prin ştiinţă. Conştiinţa istorică se naşte din încercarea de a construi identitatea unui popor, a unei naţiuni, prin raportare la alte popoare, la alte naţiuni. Formarea constiintei istorice a poporului roman se realizeaza treptat. Incepând cu secolul al XVI-lea, apar preocupările privitoare la felul în care românii se înscriu în cursul istoriei: situarea lor in timp si spatiu (originile, limba, continuitatea), evenimentele istorice, personalitatile (institutia domniei), obiceiurile, cultura si civilizatia scrise în documente în limba slavonă, apoi in latina, iar mai tarziu in limba romana. Acest interes se dezvoltă datorită contactelor pe care cei preocupaţi de formaţia lor intelectuală încep să le aibă cu alte culturi şi alte civilizaţii. Primul român care afirmă, în lucrarea sa Hungaria (1536), scrisă în limba latină, originea romană şi unitatea limbii şi a poporului român este savantul umanist Nicolaus Olahus. -
Paradigmele Termenilor Militari De Origine Polonă În Cronicile Lui Miron Costin, Nicolae Costin Şi Ion Neculce

Iftime Universitatea din Bucureşti PARADIGMELE TERMENILOR MILITARI DE ORIGINE POLONĂ ÎN CRONICILE LUI MIRON COSTIN, NICOLAE COSTIN ŞI ION NECULCE Paradigms of Polish military terms in the chronicals of Miron Costin, Nicolae Costin and Ion Neculce ABSTRACT The article examines the influence exercised by Polish language with regard to military terminology of old Romanian vocabulary. By establishing three lexical-semantic fields, we shall take into account generic names of military personnel, generic names of military grades and generic names of weaponry and munitions. Polish influence over Romanian old vocabulary between XVI and XVIII centuries is the result of direct relations between Romanian and Polish savants, due to contact of Moldavian scholars with Polish schools during their studies and with Polish realities or due to presence of Polish people in Moldova, as missionaries and/or travelers. Therefore, we shall examine how Polish influence has distributed over Romanian old texts, such as chronicles or text translations from Polish language by rendering to Romanian language lexical loanwords into the military field of direct Polish origin or lexemes in Polish originated from Latin or sometimes, a Romanic idiom. KEY WORDS: Polish language influence, military terminology, Polish loanwords into Romanian, old Roma- nian language, Romanian-Polish contacts. 1. Articolul nostru îşi propune să analizeze influenţa exercitată de limba polonă în ceea ce priveşte terminologia militară a lexicului vechi românesc. Vom avea în vedere trei câmpuri lexico-semantice: 1) denumiri generice de personal militar, 2) denumiri generice de grade militare, 3) denumiri generice de arme şi muniţii. -

Introduction*
chapter 1 Introduction* 1 Historical Background Dimitrie Cantemir was very young when he entered the Republic of Letters. Born on October 26, 1673, in Silișteni (nowadays “Dimitrie Cantemir”, in the Republic of Moldova), as the son of Constantin Cantemir (d. 1693), who was a military commander and later prince of Moldavia, Dimitrie enjoyed the privileges of a good education and scholarly companionship. At twenty-five, when his first book was published (the Divan, in 1698, at Iași), he had mastered the art of writing so thoroughly as to be able to compose a work on Christian ethics, two thirds of which were an original contribution, while the rest was an accurate translation of a Unitarian theologian’s book written in Latin.1 There is little information on the young years of the Moldavian Prince. The portrait attributed to Jean-Baptiste Vanmour that may represent him, as sug- gested by Nicolae Iorga,2 acknowledged for a long time as a certain likeness of the Prince during his first period in Constantinople, was convincingly removed from Cantemir’s iconography by George Ciorănescu3 (see ill. 1). The descrip- tion made by the Polish ambassador Rafael Leszczyński, who met Cantemir in Iași in 1699, is his only authentic portrait that has been preserved: “An eru- dite man, conversant in Latin, and with an excellent education – as if he had been raised in Poland.”4 In his conversation with the Polish ambassador Dim- itrie behaves with perfect courtesy, “showing that he was delighted to see his [the ambassador’s] person, since he had long heard of his great name.” He has “various discussions with the ambassador’s friends on the duties of friendship.” He offers them Oriental gifts – “satin fabric for a vest, a piece of fine cloth for a coat and a Turkish handkerchief” – but greets them “in the Polish fashion, with a bow.” He comments on the quality of the ambassador’s orchestra, because “he * By Virgil Cândea. -
The Reign, Culture and Legacy of Ştefan Cel Mare, Voivode of Moldova: a Case Study of Ethnosymbolism in the Romanian Societies
The reign, culture and legacy of Ştefan cel Mare, voivode of Moldova: a case study of ethnosymbolism in the Romanian societies Jonathan Eagles Thesis submitted for the degree of PhD Institute of Archaeology University College London 2011 Volume 1 ABSTRACT The reign, culture and legacy of Ştefan cel Mare, voivode of Moldova: a case study of ethnosymbolism in the Romanian societies This thesis seeks to explain the nature and strength of the latter-day status of Ştefan cel Mare in the republics of Romania and Moldova, and the history of his legacy. The regime and posthumous career of Ştefan cel Mare is examined through studies of history, politics and archaeology, set within the conceptual approach to nationalism that is known as “ethnosymbolism”. At the heart of this thesis lie the questions why does Ştefan cel Mare play a key role as a national symbol and how does this work in practice? These questions are addressed within an ethnosymbolist framework, which allows for the ethnosymbolist approach itself to be subjected to a critical study. There is a lacuna in many ethnosymbolist works, a space for a more detailed consideration of the place of archaeology in the development of nationalism. This thesis contends that the results of archaeological research can be included in a rounded ethnosymbolist study. First, the history of archaeological sites and monuments may contribute to understanding the way in which historically attested cultural symbols are adopted by communities over time. Secondly, if studied carefully, archaeological evidence may have the potential to trace the evolution of identity characteristics, in line with ethnosymbolism’s attempt to account for the formation of national identity in the pre- modern era. -

The Emergence of the Romanian Supine
The emergence of the Romanian supine Virginia Hill 1. Introduction This paper focuses on Romanian constructions with supine, which is an invariable verb form that is morphologically equivalent to the masculine singular of the past participle, and can be used in active voice. In traditional grammar (e.g., Popescu 1995: 316), the supine is classified as a mood. This form appeared in Early Modern Romanian (EMR), and is preserved without changes in standard Modern Romanian (MR). The paper aims to account for the emergence and the spread of the supine in EMR, and to pinpoint the properties that are relevant to the analysis of the MR supine. The supine is a relatively recent innovation, its beginnings being well attested in the documents of the 16th-18th centuries. My primary source of data in this paper is a corpus of Moldavian Chronicles (letopiseţele moldoveneşti), supplemented with data from other contemporary literary writings. The Moldavian Chronicles are the first literary texts written directly in Romanian. They are, thus, more reliable than the translated texts for conveying the state of EMR grammar, although one should always keep in mind that written and spoken languages may differ. My corpus consists of the writings of three chroniclers who follow each other on the timeline in this order: Grigore Ureche > Miron Costin > Ion Neculce. Thus, the texts provide the grammar of three consecutive generations, from the first half of the 17th century to the middle of the 18th century. The combined texts amount to a corpus of 1 259,536 words, generating 9,497 sentences. The list of verbal supine constructions (i.e., de-supine) found in this corpus is provided in the Appendix 1 to this paper. -

Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author CEU eTD Collection 1 Abstract The thesis reconstructs the thought of three key figures in early modern Romanian culture: Antim Ivireanul, Miron Costin and Ion Neculce. The first was metropolitan of Walachia at the beginning of the 18th C. and left a series of sermons- Didahii, the next two were chroniclers of the history of Moldova in an interval which spans roughly from 1650 to 1750. The main thread of analysis concerns their definition of evil, politics, disobedience and historical experience. The question is whether this elite shared the radical problem of questioning political evil and discerned between right and wrong in the affairs of temporal rule. This would mean to investigate their moral-political projects and to trace any signs of introducing the idea of political responsibility, of questioning the authorities concerning their willingness to establish a civilized, free and prosperous rule, of regarding history as a moral category and as something which involves people as responsible agents.
