  • Regele Ferdinand I Al Romniei (1914-1927)
    MUZEUL NAŢIONAL Vol. XX 2008 "UN BUN ROMÂN" - REGELE FERDINAND I AL ROMÂNIEI A GOOD ROMANIAN - KING FERDINAND I OF ROMANIA Ştefania Ciubotaru Abstract The article is a new approach to the position King Ferdinand held in the Romanian society and among European royals. Respectfully spoken about in foreign newspapers, he was a dynamic and elegant presence in Romania. During his time politics, economy and culture had a progressive evolution and there were associated to the King’s vocation and intelligence skills of leadership. Key words: King Ferdinand, the Union, duty, daily life, social and economic progress Regele Ferdinand I al României s-a născut la 24 august 1865 la Sigmaringen, iar primele instrucţiuni le-a primit în familie de la profesorul Gröbels, urmând apoi gimnaziul din Düsseldorf. După ani de aspră viaţă ostăşească ca ofiţer în garda prusiană şi elev la şcoala militară din Kassel, tânărul prinţ a devenit student al universităţilor din Tübingen şi Lipsca în 1887, doritor de a-şi lărgi orizontul de cunoştinţe1. Din vremea tinereţii sale există o descriere a prinţului, făcută de cineva care i-a fost foarte apropiat şi care merită a fi reţinută pentru adevărul care îl conţine: "ca tânăr, se poate spune că însuşirea caracteristică a prinţului Ferdinand era o extremă modestie, amestecată cu o timiditate aproape chinuitoare. Educaţia lui fusese completă, urmată cu îngrijire după cerinţele unui viitor şef de stat, dar nimeni nu şi-a dat seama vreodată de cât ştie tânărul. Nici acasă nu-i plăcea să se afirme faţă de fraţii lui. Foarte curtenitor şi politicos, se ferea totdeauna a jigni sentimentele cuiva şi ceda terenul chiar când cunoştea mai bine subiectul în discuţie decât cei cu care discuta.

  • Cultural Trauma – the Case of the Winner1
    Cultural Trauma – The Case of the Winner1 ZOLTÁN BRETTER Politics in Central Europe (ISSN: 1801-3422) Vol. 16, No. 1S DOI: 10.2478/pce-2020-0004 Abstract: My study is an analysis of the emergence of the “Golden Dream” narrative in Romania, right after World War I. Along the way, I make some theoretical contributions to cultural trauma studies. ‘Winner’ and ‘loser’ are terms used to define fixed situations. Usually, only the loser (the victim, defeated) might suffer a trauma, while the occur‑ rence of trauma is denied for the winner (the perpetrator, victor). We shall dig a little deeper and wider, demonstrating that Romania, an overall winner of WWI, will face, right after victory, a ‘cultural shock’ which has to be repressed, as part of the “Golden Dream” narrative. Through a detailed, economic, social and political analysis, I’ll be trying to argue that a shattering trauma has engendered in Romanian society; yet an‑ other addition to a whole ‘traumatic history’. The ensuing orthodox ethno‑nationalism takes its root from this trauma. From time ‑to ‑time, we will take a comparative glance at the trauma of the loser, particularly when we will be discussing the omissions of an otherwise seamless narrative. Keywords: cultural trauma, Romania, Hungary, authoritarianism, interwar period Introduction “Where the disease is various, no particular definite remedy can meet the wants of all. Only the attraction of an abstract idea, or of an ideal state, can unite in common action, multitudes who seek a universal cure for many special evils and a common restorative applicable to many different conditions” (Acton 1862: 3).

  • A Physical and Moral Portrait of Balkan Vlachs In
    MUZEUL NAŢIONAL Vol. XX 2008 A PHYSICAL AND MORAL PORTRAIT OF BALKAN VLACHS IN HISTORICAL SOURCES (IXth-XIIth CENTURIES) DESPRE PORTRETUL FIZIC ŞI MORAL AL VLAHILOR BALCANICI ÎN SURSELE ISTORICE (SECOLELE IX-XII) Ginel Lazăr, Monica Lazăr Abstract Like any other people, the Balkan Vlachs (Romanians) came into being and defined themselves as an entity during a long and difficult historical process. Ethnoculturally and historically they share similarities but also differences which bring them closer, but also separate them from neighbouring peoples. Balkan Romanians’ physical and moral traits are differently perceived from one observer to another. For Byzantines, „Vlachs“ meant „barbarians“, namely those who didn’t speak, think or live like a Greek. Ever since Vlachs have been first mentioned in historical sources (approx. 850) until the Asanesti rebellion (1185), „the physical and moral portrait of Balkan Vlachs differs with each observer. Latin authors, especially Italians and Dalmatians, depicted them favourably, mainly highlighting their bellicose attributes and their pleasant appearance, sometimes associated to their Roman descent. On the contrary, they are often negatively perceived by their Balkan neighbours. This is not surprising at all: for Byzantines and Southern Slavics, endowed with their own states and cultures, the Vlach is „the other“, a foreigner refusing integration by asserting his own identity and even worse - often trying to establish his own state in an area they claimed“. Key words: „Romanus“, „the other“, transhumance, „kjelatori“, Haemus, Vlachs, Christians. Like any other people, the Balkan Vlachs (Romanians) came into being and defined themselves as an entity during a long and difficult historical process. Ethnoculturally and historically they share similarities but also differences which bring them closer, but also separate them from neighbouring peoples.

  • Thane Schwartz Ridgemont High School Ridgeway, OH Romania, Factor 12 Addressing Obesity Through Nutrition Education and Improved Eating Behaviors
    Thane Schwartz Ridgemont High School Ridgeway, OH Romania, Factor 12 Addressing obesity through nutrition education and improved eating behaviors Romania ranks within the top 10 in largest territory and population rank among European Union states. Its total area is 238,391 km². The capitol of Romania is Bucharest, which is the sixth largest city in the European Nations. Romania joined the United Nations on March 29, 2004. It has hot long summers with short winters. Romania has a beautiful country side with a hilly to mountainous terrain. Romania is 1/3 plains, 1/3 plateaus, and 1/3 mountains. The hot long summers lead to a long and good growing season for farmers all over Romania, where about 28% of the population’s jobs are related to agriculture. The average private farm in Romania is usually around 2.2 ha. Forty percent of farmers in Romania are expected to retire in the next 5 years. Romania is one of the highest agricultural job related countries in Europe. This shows how agriculture is so important to the people of Romania. Its absence would lead to starvation and malnutrition. The country wouldn’t be able to survive without agriculture. Romania’s common crops are wheat, corn, oats, barley, potatoes, sunflowers, apples, and pears. The ideal regions for farming in Romania include Walachia, Transylvania, Moldavia, Dobruja, and the Banat. Raising livestock predominates in the mountainous areas. The region in Romania known as Transylvania has an interesting history. It has about 7 million people living in it, which is about one third of the population.

  • Gidni 2 History and Cultural Mentalities
    GIDNI 2 HISTORY AND CULTURAL MENTALITIES CHRISTMAS CELEBRATION AT KINGS COURT CAROL I AND FERDINAND I OF ROMANIA Oana Elena Badea, PhD Student, ”Babeș-Bolyai” University of Cluj-Napoca Abstract:Relying largely on the writings of memoirs of the time, this article aims to inform the reader about the charming world of Christmases at the time of Romania Royal Court Kings Carol I and Ferdinand I of Romania, lived and filtered through the experience of the Royal Family members and other participants. Royal pomp was meant to be exposed to viewers, subjects, prominent people of the Romanian society of those times, among others with a view to strengthening public image, an indispensable element for the good of the relationship between monarchy and other state institutions. We will not emphasize on the fact that one of the main purposes of the Royal Festivism was to generate a powerful mental and visual impact among the people, but we will focus on that specific moment when the Royal family chose to give up the public display for the intimacy of the Royal Christmas holidays. Furthermore, we will concentrate on the two aspects of the holidays. First of all we wish to show the way in which the Royal Family used to spend Christmas in private, with family and close friends. On the other hand, we will try to point out the rare occasions when the Kings interacted with ordinary people during the winter holidays and what where the reasons for this. After a long and hard year, celebrating Christmas at the Royal Palace always remained a pleasant and private moment, and an opportunity for the members of the Royal Family to delight themselves with moments of joy and harmony together with the closed ones.
