  • Romanian Neo-Protestants in the Interwar Struggle for Religious and National Identity
    Pieties of the Nation: Romanian neo-protestants in the interwar struggle for religious and national identity by Iemima Daniela Ploscariu Submitted to Central European University Department of History In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Constantin Iordachi Second Reader: Vlad Naumescu CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2015 “Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author.” CEU eTD Collection i Abstract Neo-protestants (Seventh-Day Adventists, Baptists, Brethren, and Pentecostals) were the fastest growing among the religious minorities in interwar Romania. The American, Hungarian, German, and other European influences on these groups and their increasing success led government officials and the Romanian Orthodox Church to look on them with suspicion and to challenge them with accusations of being socially deviant sects or foreign pawns. Neo- protestants presented themselves as loyal Romanians while still maintaining close relationships with ethnic minorities of the same faith within the country and abroad. The debates on the identity of these groups and the “competition for souls” that occurred in society demonstrate neo- protestants' vision of Romanian national identity challenging the accepted interwar arguments for what it meant to be Romanian.

  • Celebrating the Royal Liturgy Within the National Calendrical Memory – the Politics of Festive Time in the Romanian Kingdom, 1866–1947
    JOURNAL OF COMPARATIVE RESEARCH IN ANTHROPOLOGY AND SOCIOLOGY Copyright © The Author, 2016 Volume 7, Number 1, Summer 2016 ISSN 2068 – 0317 http://compaso.eu Celebrating the royal liturgy within the national calendrical memory – The politics of festive time in the Romanian Kingdom, 1866–1947 Mihai Stelian Rusu1 Abstract The paper analyzes the calendrical struggles over mastering symbolic time in Romanian modern history by scrutinizing the logic of constructing, deconstructing, and reconstructing a temporal order made up of political holidays celebrated within a festive calendar. It looks, first, at how the constitutional monarchic political order established in 1866 with the enthronement of Carol I as Ruling Prince of Romania developed a royal festive calendar pillared on the National Day of the 10th of May. By analyzing the making of the royal temporal order organized within a national festive calendar, three techniques of calendrical construction are identified and detailed: a) calendrical shifting, b) calendrical concentration, and c) celebrative sequencing employed for framing temporal coincidence and staging festive density. After presenting how the festive calendar was articulated using these techniques for the purpose of legitimating the monarchic order, the paper goes on to address how the Socialist republican regime established in the aftermath of the Second World War tried and succeeded not only in abolishing the dynastic monarchy through a political revolution but also in overthrowing the entire royal calendar of political celebrations through a symbolic revolution in the politics of festive time. The paper identifies four techniques of calendrical deconstruction used by the Socialist regime to destructure the royal festive calendar and supplant it with a republican one: a) calendrical decentering, b) calendrical concentration, c) symbolic downgrading, and d) shifting the celebrative weight.

  • 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.

  • Changing Identities at the Fringes of the Late Ottoman Empire: the Muslims of Dobruca, 1839-1914
    Changing Identities at the Fringes of the Late Ottoman Empire: The Muslims of Dobruca, 1839-1914 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Catalina Hunt, Ph.D. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2015 Dissertation Committee: Carter V. Findley, Advisor Jane Hathaway Theodora Dragostinova Scott Levi Copyright by Catalina Hunt 2015 Abstract This dissertation examines the Muslim community of Dobruca, an Ottoman territory granted to Romania in 1878, and its transformation from a majority under Ottoman rule into a minority under Romanian administration. It focuses in particular on the collective identity of this community and how it changed from the start of the Ottoman reform era (Tanzimat) in 1839 to the outbreak of World War I in 1914. This dissertation constitutes, in fact, the study of the transition from Ottoman subjecthood to Romanian citizenship as experienced by the Muslim community of Dobruca. It constitutes an assessment of long-term patterns of collective identity formation and development in both imperial and post-imperial settings. The main argument of the dissertation is that during this period three crucial factors altered the sense of collective belonging of Dobrucan Muslims: a) state policies; b) the reaction of the Muslims to these policies; and c) the influence of transnational networks from the wider Turkic world on the Muslim community as a whole. Taken together, all these factors contributed fully to the community’s intellectual development and overall modernization, especially since they brought about new patterns of identification and belonging among Muslims.

  • Holocaust in Romania: Uncovering a Dark Chapter
    The Holocaust in Romania: Uncovering a Dark Chapter By: Iulia Padeanu Advised by: Professor Donald Dietrich The Holocaust in Romania: Uncovering a Dark Chapter Introduction In 1934 the Jewish population of Romania was 700,000. Today, fewer that 9000 remain. Outside of Nazi Germany the Romanian Holocaust was the most brutal and most deadly. Yet this chapter remains one of the darkest and most unexplored in Romanian history. What happened? The Holocaust in Romania remains to this day one of the most controversial aspects of the country’s history. Negationist theories run rampant throughout the country. Some ‘scholars’ claim the Shoah did not happen at all, others that it is all a Jewish conspiracy, many other scholars lay the blame solely on Germany, and others still profess that Romania actually saved its Jews. Whatever the theories may be, the last few years have fortunately shown tremendous accomplishments in unveiling the truth behind this dark chapter of Romania’s past. Spearheading the movement towards acceptance was Elie Wiesel, a Romanian of Jewish background who was forced to emigrate from Romania with his family during the Shoah. Along with a team from the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum, they produced the Final Report International Commission on the Holocaust in Romania. It was the first document of its kind, and brought out to light, for the first time, the real atrocities of the Romanian Holocaust. The brutal program of terror was a political maneuver on the part of the fascist government, and especially of Romania’s leader during WWII - the military dictator Marshal Ion Antonescu.
