The Romanians in Bukovina held a Constituent Assembly on October 27 and decided the unification of the whole Bukovina with Romania. On November 1, 1918, the Ukrainians organized a coup d’état and took over Eastern Galicia, and on November 6, the city of Chernivtsi. Upon the request of the Romanian Constituent Assembly, the Romanian Royal Army entered Bukovina, and on November 12, occupied the city of Chernivtsi, from which the Ukrainian soldiers and officials had fled. The Romanian National Council, established by the Constituent Assembly, took over the power in Bukovina, issued a new constitution of the country and instituted a Romanian government in Bukovina. On November 28, the Romanian government organized a Congress of all the inhabitants of Bukovina, which proclaimed the union of the province with Romania. The German and the Polish inhabitants of the province officially attended the Congress and sanctioned the union; the Jewish community boycotted the Congress, while only 13 unofficial representatives of the Ukrainian community from several Ruthenian villages participated.

  • Czernowitz: the Jerusalem of Bukovina
    CZERNOWITZ: THE JERUSALEM OF BUKOVINA Daniel Hrenciuc Technical College, Rădăuţi (Romania) [email protected] Rezumat: Articolul analizează rolului evreilor în istoria şi evoluţia oraşului Cernăuţi, devenit prin ponderea, contribuţia şi atmosfera mozaică un veritabil “Ierusalim al Bucovinei”. Evreii au reprezentat majoritatea locuitorilor municipiului Cernăuţi, un spaţiu renumit prin înţelegerea şi coabitarea grupărilor etnice, specifică Europei Centrale. În Cernăuţi s-au format şi afirmat Paul Celan (Paul Antschel), Moses Barasch, Jacob Eisenscher, Arthur Kolnik, Şlomo Lerner, Iţic Manger, Eliezer Steinbarg, Moses Rosenkrantz, Eric Singer, Rose Ausländer, Victor Wittner, Isac Schneyer, Clara Bloom, Alfred Kitner, Immanuel Weissglass, Alfred Gong, Alfred Margul Sperber ş.a. În 1908 în Cernăuţi a avut loc primul Congres Mondial consacrat idişului. Această atmosferă a fost puternic viciată în perioada interbelică de manifestarea puternică a naţionalismului şi antisemitismului. Abstract: Cernăuţi, known as Czernowitz in Yiddish, gathered together important personalities in order to debate on the issue of the status of Yiddish. The power and the contribution of the Jews of Bukovina to the culture and spirituality of Bukovina – beyond the economic references, such as commerce, finances and banks – were really impressive, as a proof being the personalities asserted within the Bukovina area including at the top: Paul Celan (Paul Antschel) Moses Barasch, Jacob Eisenscher, Arthur Kolnik, Slomo Lerner, Itic Manger, Eliezer Steinbarg, Moses Rosenkrantz,

In the last decades of the 19th century, the Romanian national movement from Austrian Bukovina turned from cultural stage into political phasis. Initially, Romanian political organizations were included into federalist or autonomist currents from Austro-Hungarian Empire. Politically, according to multidimensional theory, Romanian parties belong to the cleavage entitled Center/ Periphery, but also Church-State and Employers-Workers cleavages.

FEDERALIST PROJECTS, ROMANIAN REACTIONS DZIEDZICTWO KULTUROWE, PAMI KULTUROWE, DZIEDZICTWO KEY WORDS: imperial legacy, federalist projects, Mi eleuropa, „Pan-Romanism”, „Austro-Ro- manism”, „Bukovinism”, protochronism SŁOWA KLUCZE: dziedzictwo imperialne, projekty federalistyczne, Mi eleuropa, „panrumu- nizm”, „austrorumunizm”, „bukowinizm”, protocronism Abstract I am going to speak about federative projects and plans, political initiatives and memoranda, re- actions they caused in the Romanian intellectual and political environment, the way they were (or rather were not) included in the historical discourse, and will not tackle the “Central European set of mind” which is so diffi cult to identify. It has to be mentioned that, for the Romanian culture, the acquisition of the Central Europe- an conscience, the conscience of the middle and its potential conceptualization are doomed to an- nihilation by the obsessive claim of “insularity”. The imperial legacy is only mentioned in negative contexts, various political and cultural personalities are incriminated for their cosmopolitanism, and for the “pro-Hapsburg”, “pro-German” activity which is equal to being “antinational”. Central Eu- rope becomes a spectre, a bogey man shown every now and then to Romanians in order to reinforce the feeling of being “under siege”, the fear that the country could be dismembered by the “enemies from abroad and enemies within”. Prologue I want to start by explaining that I consider “Central Europe” an “umbrella” term attempting to explain various, often contradictory geo-political and cultural projects spreading over the same or along successive time periods.

  • Unirea Bucovinei Cu România În 1918
    REVISTA DE ISTORIE A MOLDOVEI 26 STUDII Constantin Ungureanu* UNIREA BUCOVINEI CU ROMÂNIA ÎN 1918 Situaţia etno-demografică, politică şi culturală din Bucovina înainte de război Pe parcursul a 144 de ani de stăpânire austriacă, în Bucovina s­au produs profunde modificări social­economice, etno­demografice, politice şi culturale, cu consecinţe deosebite pentru populaţia din acest ţinut. La începutul sec. al XX­lea, Bucovina devenise o provincie multietnică şi multiconfesională, în care nici o etnie nu constituia o majoritate absolută. Potrivit recensămintelor oficiale austriece din anii 1880­1910, realizate după criteriul limbii de conversaţie a populaţiei, românii bucovineni chiar erau devansaţi de ucraineni şi constituiau doar ceva mai mult de o treime din totalul populaţiei. Ultimul recensământ austriac, din 1910, a înregistrat 794.945 de locuitori în Bucovina, inclusiv 305.222 (38,4%) vorbitori de ucraineană, 273.216 (34,4%) – de română, 168.779 (21,2%) – de germană, din care cca. 95 mii erau evrei, 36.217 (4,5%) – polonezi, 10.389 (1,3%) – maghiari1. Districtele Coţmani, Vaşcăuţi, Vijniţa şi Zastavna, din nord­vestul Bucovinei, erau locuite în mare majoritate de ucraineni, precum şi de un număr mic de evrei şi polonezi. Districtele cu populaţie mixtă din partea centrală a Bucovinei (Cernăuţi – rural, Siret şi Storojineţ) erau populate în majoritate de români şi ucraineni, dar şi de mulţi evrei, germani sau polonezi. În restul districtelor din sudul Bucovinei, majoritatea populaţiei era românească, dar erau şi multe sate germane, câteva locuite de maghiari şi polonezi. În 1910, în Bucovina erau 10 oraşe şi 6 târguri, ponderea populaţiei urbane mărindu­se de la 15%, în 1857, la 23,9%, în 1910.

A slightly condensed version of the German- language Die Ukraine zwischen Selbstbestimmung und Fremdherrschaft 1917– 1922 (Graz, 2011), this book provides, on the one hand, a systematic outline of events in Ukraine during one of the most complex periods of twentieth- century European history, when the Austro-Hungarian and Russian empires collapsed at the end of the Great War and new independent nation-states OF emerged in Central and Eastern Europe. On the other hand, several chapters of this book provide detailed studies of specifi c aspects of the occupation of Ukraine by German and Austro-Hungarian troops following the Treaty of UKRAINE Brest-Litovsk, signed on 9 February 1918 between the Central Powers and the Ukrainian People’s Republic.

    Programme: Resurse Umane, burse postdoctorale Project code: PN-II-RU-PD-2012-3-0241 Name of the project: Evolution of the legal terminology in German and Romanian in Bukovina (1775-1918) Director: dr. Iulia Elena Zup Mentor: dr. Mihai-Ştefan Ceauşu Description of the project and results The interest of the research in the reconstruction of the multicultural landscape that marked up the social entity formed over time within the borders of the historical Bukovina – the northwestern region of the former principality of Moldavia, annexed by Austria in 1774, recovered by Romania in 1918, divided temporally between Romania and Soviet Ukraine by the 1940 Soviet ultimatum and for good after 1944 – has risen considerably after 1990 both in Romania and especially abroad. After the fall of the Soviet Union and the subsequent opening up of the Ukraine, the historians were amazed to discover a Central Europe of unexpected cultural complexity since it was long forgotten after the division of the continent by the Iron Curtain. They began to revalue the Bukovina society as a cultural and historical phenomenon with a marked specific difference. Essential for this cultural reconstruction is the role played by the German language in the insertion of the politic experience of the Europe of the Age of Enlightenment, more exactly of Josephinism, in a territory inhabited by Romanians, with consequences of great importance for the entire subsequent evolution of this province. The project’s goal is thus to examine the role of the German language particularly within the dynamic historical process of modernization initiated and controlled by the Habsburg authorities in the province of Bukovina, where the chronic economic underdevelopment characterizing the dominant rural civilization was increasingly challenged by the urban enclaves, above all the new regional capital Chernivtsi, products of Western social and cultural mobility in sharp contrast to the conservative inertness of the local traditional culture.

  • Jewish Politics in Austrian Bukovina: Czernowitz Yiddish Conference of 1908
    JEWISH POLITICS IN AUSTRIAN BUKOVINA: CZERNOWITZ YIDDISH CONFERENCE OF 1908 By Karina Shyrokykh Submitted to Central European University Department of Nationalism Studies In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor Michael L. Miller CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2010 Abstract Austrian Bukovina was known as a tolerant, multiethnic crownland where at the beginning of the twentieth century Jews constituted one-third of the total population. In addition, this crownland represented political cooperation of different nations’ political movements, where one of the most successful cooperation took part between Ruthenians (i.e. Ukrainians) and Jews in the context of the discussion of electoral reforms of the local diet (1903-1910). The study focuses on Czernowitz Yiddish Conference of 1908, which nowadays is considered to be the watershed moment in the development of Yiddish language and culture, and the analysis of the discussion of the event in the local Ukrainian and Jewish periodicals of 1908. The analysis of the local press has demonstrated that, despite political importance of Yiddish promotion in Bukovina, the local Jewish periodicals did not actively discuss the Czernowitz Yiddish Conference of 1908; despite Jewish-Ukrainian political cooperation, there was no discussion of the Conference in the local Ukrainian press. This could be explained by the fact that the local Jewish elite did not take part in the organization of the conference, and did not appreciate it a lot. However, the research focuses only on the local press published in 1908 which could be non-representative for the general evaluation of the Conference in Austrian press.
