This is not true. Quietness was only status of Romania between apparent during those years but the 1914 and 1916. atmosphere was actually tense, fore- shadowing a new storm. The great powers were racing behind the Ger- man Empire in an arms race. That race could only lead to one result: testing the efficiency of the weapons on the battlefield. The tense, troubled atmo- sphere was enhanced by the existence of the two military blocks: the Triple Alliance and the Entente.

XXVIII, NO. 2 (SUmmER 2019) The Triple Alliance, made up of the German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Italy, and also the Kingdom of Romania, was not sufficiently coagulat- ed, even threatening to fall apart. In Romania, the common people were increas- ingly discontented with the Triple Alliance: during the Balkan Wars, Vienna had strongly supported the Bulgarians against our country, whereas Berlin had done nothing to support Bucharest.1 In Saint Petersburg, Tsar Nicholas II was receiving information about the anti-German and anti-Austro-Hungarian state of mind in Romania. He knew that this attitude was enhanced by the anti-Romanian policy of persecutions against the Romanians in Transylvania, pursued by the Kálmán Tisza govern- ment in Budapest.2 The pro-Russian feelings of certain politicians like Emil Costinescu were also known.3 Under such circumstances, a matrimonial alliance was planned, between the Grand Duchess Olga Nikolaevna, the elder daughter of the Russian Tsar, and Prince Carol, the heir to the Romanian throne. In his memoirs, Alexandru Marghiloman confesses that on 22 February 1914, during a discussion with King Carol I, the latter declared to his interlocutor that the aforementioned marriage could be good for the family but would not have led to a shift in state KING CAROL I and Tsar NICHOLAS II on 18 July 1898, at Krasnoe Selo, near Saint Petersburg. The two monarchs were photographed as they were reviewing the maneuvers of the Tsar’s Guard. This is proof of the good relations built over time between Russia and Romania.

PARADIGMS • 5 policy.4 The king did not trust the tsar’s promise that the Grand Duchess Olga would receive Bessarabia as her dowry. The tsar sought to improve the situa- tion and tip the balance in favor of Romania’s coming close to Russia. The tsar proposed, successfully, to pay a visit to the Romanian harbour of Constanþa on 1 June 1914. He was going there joyfully, because thus he could meet his cousin, Princess Mary, whom he had briefly tried to court in his youth. I. G. Duca wrote in his memoirs that, one day before the tsar’s arrival, he took a stroll towards Tuzla in the company of Princess Mary. The princess depicted Nicholas II in warm colors, rejecting the malicious words that were being spread in connection to him. One single aspect, of a purely feminine nature, Princess Mary did not omit. Her cousin, Tsar Nicholas II, was not as beautiful to her as the rest of the imperial family, full of tall, handsome men, with seducing faces, able to sustain a sparkling, thrilling conversation. However, she underlined that Tsar Nicholas was a very pleasant person.5 The next day, Tsar Nicholas II arrived in Constanþa. He was coming from the Crimean port of Yalta, aboard his sumptuous yacht, Standard, painted in black, a ship that impressed with its magnificence and elegance, escorted by six military ships (with a complement of 1,843). The tsar was accompanied by Disembarking from the luxurious Standard yacht on 1 June 1914 in Constanþa harbour, the Russian imperial family is welcomed by King CAROL I, the family and the official retinue.

There was also a retinue of 19 persons accompanying the tsar and his family on the occasion of that visit, which was meant to return those paid by the Roma- nian royal family on several occasions, including that very year.6 The visitors were welcomed on the pier by King Carol I, dressed in a Rus- sian marshal’s uniform and holding in his hand a Russian marshal’s baton. Standing there was also the heir to the throne, Prince Ferdinand, also dressed in the Russian uniform of a colonel in the tsar’s guard, along with the king’s son, Prince Carol, wearing the uniform of a an imperial aide.

  • Trials of the War Criminals
    TRIALS OF THE WAR CRIMINALS General Considerations The Fascist regime that ruled Romania between September 14, 1940, and August 23, 1944, was brought to justice in Bucharest in May 1946, and after a short trial, its principal leaders—Ion and Mihai Antonescu and two of their closest assistants—were executed, while others were sentenced to life imprisonment or long terms of detention. At that time, the trial’s verdicts seemed inevitable, as they indeed do today, derived inexorably from the defendants’ decisions and actions. The People’s Tribunals functioned for a short time only. They were disbanded on June 28, 1946,1 although some of the sentences were not pronounced until sometime later. Some 2,700 cases of suspected war criminals were examined by a commission formed of “public prosecutors,”2 but only in about half of the examined cases did the commission find sufficient evidence to prosecute, and only 668 were sentenced, many in absentia.3 There were two tribunals, one in Bucharest and one in Cluj. It is worth mentioning that the Bucharest tribunal sentenced only 187 people.4 The rest were sentenced by the tribunal in Cluj. One must also note that, in general, harsher sentences were pronounced by the Cluj tribunal (set up on June 22, 1 Marcel-Dumitru Ciucă, “Introducere” in Procesul maresalului Antonescu (Bucharest: Saeculum and Europa Nova, 1995-98), vol. 1: p. 33. 2 The public prosecutors were named by communist Minister of Justice Lucret iu Pătrăşcanu and most, if not all of them were loyal party members, some of whom were also Jews.

  • Bibliografie
    BIBLIOGRAFIE ••~- REVISTA „FAMILIA", SERIA A III-A (1934-1940). INDICE BIBLIOGRAFIC de LUCIA CORNEA Şirul noilor serii ale Familiei a fost inaugurat la 1 martie 1926 de M. G. Samarineanu, care a început la acea dată publicarea seriei a li-a. Aceasta a continuat să apară la Oradea, o dată la lună, pînă în 1929. Fiecare nouă serie a revistei Familia, dintre cele apărute în peri­ oada interbelică, s-a proclamat de continuatoare a vechii publicaţii con­ dusă de I. Vulcan. lncepînd cu luna mai 1934, tot la Oradea, sub conducerea ace­ luiaşi Samarineanu, s-a tipărit cea de-a treia serie a revistei Familia, întreruptă în august 1940, cînd a apărut ultimul număr, prin punerea '.in aplicare a dictatului de la Viena. După această dată revista s-a mutat la Bucureşti, în localul tipografiei Universul, unde şi-a continuat existenţa, din ce în ce mai greu şi cu intermitenţe, sub forma celei de-a patra serii. Redactorul seriilor interbelice ale Familiei, Mihail Gh. Samari­ neanu, macedo-rornân de origine, s-a stabilit la Oradea în 1920 la in­ sistenţele lui George Bacaloglu, care la rîndul său se stabilise aici cu un an înainte şi se făcuse remarcat deja prin întemeierea şi conducerea Reunirmii culturale „Cele Trei Crişuri". Cu o scurtă intermitenţă, timp în care s-a reîntors în Macedonia, Samarineanu a rămas la Oradea pînă în 1940. Timp de cîţiva ani, între cele două serii ale Familiei (1929-1934) a lucrat în redacţia cotidianului orădean Gazeta de Vest. Ca scriitor, Samarineanu a fost cunoscut în deceniul patru ca autorul unor scrieri de importanţă minoră, de inspiraţie balcanică.

  • Nicknames of Romanian Politicians After 1989
    Nicknames of Romanian Politicians after 1989 Daiana FELECAN, Oliviu FELECAN Key-words: nicknames, political discourse, pragmalinguistics, semantics, sociolinguistics 1. Preliminaries 1.1. Politicians’ nicknames – strategies of argumentum ad hominem1 The present-day world of Romanian politics takes the shape of a theatre of operations from a warring area, a Gaza Strip whose property deed is continually claimed by parties found at either ends of the political spectrum. These parties insult one another publicly, suspect and tell on one another to the National Anticorruption Directorate. They even listen in on their private conversations and discredit each other by means of compromising films. All the aforementioned events, alongside many others, unfold before the alert yet blind eyes and under the allegedly fair consideration of a system of justice that is overwhelmed by the multitude of penal cases pending before courts of law, with ever-postponed trial dates. Nicknames have become means of attack, picked by belligerent interlocutors from the arsenal at hand. They are prolonged-release antidotes used to destroy opponents and their effect is visible in the long run, as nicknames become part of users’ collective memory. When this happens, speakers associate a nicknamed individual with the verbal tag considered emblematic of the nickname bearer. Contemporary Romanian society appears to be increasingly oblivious of the principles that underlie its foundation (politeness, promoting respect in interpersonal relationships and acknowledging the distribution of social roles). As a result, the psychological and linguistic profile of Romanian society was altered along with the institution of democracy after 1989.
