Romanian Items and Testimonies, Currentl Y Held In ROMANIAN ITEMS AND TESTIMONIES, CURRENTLY HELD IN THE ARCHIVES OF ST. CATHERINE MONASTERY, MOUNT SINAI* ADRIAN MARINESCU A number of objects of Romanian origin or containing information conceming the Romanians, can be currently found at Mount Sinai. They testifyto the relations maintained by the Romanians with this major monastic centre of the Orient, within the broader context of political and religious links of the Romanian Principalities with the Orthodox East. The Romanian Principalities thus prove to have been a reliable, faithful supporter of the Christians in the first lands to hear the preaching of Christ's gospel. Beside objects donated by Romanian rulers, who maintained relationships with the Holy Mountain, Sinai also holds items brought by Sinaite monks having spent a while in the Romanian Principalities, as well as important catalogues of documents and records. The Romanian foundations at Mount Sinai are also beautiful architecture monuments, certainly benefitting from the material support ofthe above-mentioned princes. All these items - liturgica! objects, manuscripts, rare books, art and architecture vestiges, etc. - enrich the vast treasury that belongs both to Sinai and Romania, albeit outside the country's boundaries. • The present study is the English translation of the slightly modified original text of the chapter (pp. 477-530) bearing the same title in our work, St. Catherine Monasteryof Mt. Sinai and its relationships with the Romanian Principalities. A historical-patristic approach, published in the year 2009 by Sophia Publishing House in Bucharest. In researching and writing it, we referred to: V. CÂNDEA, Mărturii româneşti peste hotare. Mică enciclopedie, voi. I (Bucharest, 1991) and II (Bucharest, 1998), issued by the Publishing House Ed. Enciclopedică. We have not only drawn on the bibliography presented in these works, which identified the tokens of Romanian relationships with Mt. Sinai in the specialized literature, but also preserved the clearly defined structure of the written material. Thus, although documents are more important to us, we have insisted on the objects which can be found here - not necessarily of Roman ian origin - which convey information conceming the Romanians. Moreover, we have also maintained the general notion of „object" we have employed on other occasions, designating all types of goods offered to Mt. Sinai by the Romanians, or functioning as tokens for such donations. We hope not only to highlight the elements of Romanian history and post-Byzantine culture hereby presented, but also to provide a starting point for further research which will make them better known.

Beza. He travelled, collected data and took important photos to document the relationships of the Romanian Principalities with the Orient, and presented them in reference books. The assessment given by M. Beza, N. Iorga and others to this information is still almost entirely valid today. M. Beza's early 201h century project was continued by V. Cândea during the 1990s. We add further information obtained through our research activity so far, to the extent that we have had access to the respective sources. The bibliography we have employed is the following: Cata/ogus Codicum Ma nuscriptorum Graecorum, qui in Mo nasterio Sanctae Catharinae in Monte Sina asservantur.

  • Silks and Stones: Fountains, Painted Kaftans, and Ottomans in Early Modern Moldavia and Wallachia*
    SILKS AND STONES: FOUNTAINS, PAINTED KAFTANS, AND OTTOMANS IN EARLY MODERN MOLDAVIA AND WALLACHIA* MICHAŁ WASIUCIONEK** Buildings are arguably the last thing that comes to our mind when we talk about circulation of luxury goods and diffusion of consumption practices. Their sheer size and mass explain their tendency to remain in one place throughout their existence and bestow upon them an aura of immutability. This “spatial fix” of the built environment, both in terms of individual buildings and architectural landscapes, means that while they may change hand, they are unable to move across space. This immobility is by no means absolute, as shown by the well-known relocation of the Pergamon altar from western Anatolia to the Museum Island in Berlin, or shorter distances covered by dozens of churches in Bucharest, displaced from their original sites during the urban reconstruction of the 1980s. However, these instances do not change the fact that while both buildings and smaller luxury items constitute vehicles conveying their owners’ wealth and social status, they seemingly belong to two different realms, with little overlap between them. However, as scholarship produced in recent decades has shown, approaching these two spheres of human activity as a dynamic and interactive whole can produce valuable insights into how architecture and luxury commodities construed and expressed social and political identity. As Alina Payne pointed out, buildings and whole sites could become portable and travel by proxy, in the form of drawings, descriptions, and fragments of buildings.1 At the same time, the architectural environment provides the spatial frame for the social and cultural life of humans and objects alike: the spatial distribution of luxury items within the household allows us to reconstruct the topography of conspicuous display and everyday * This study was supported by the ERC-2014-CoG no.

  • Istoria Familiei Ghica
    ISTORIE 235 ISTORIA FAMILIEI GHICA Gabriel Constantin Abstract: Our study has as main goal to present the history of Ghica’s family, that came on Wallachia and Moldavia in the 17th century and which gave to these contries a lot of rulers and personalities who stood out in different and numerous fields of activity. Key words: Wallachia, Moldavia, Ghica, Russia, Ottoman Empire Familia Ghica își are origini albaneze și a sosit în secolul al XVII-lea în Țara Românescă și Moldova. Între anii 1658-1856 a dat în cele două țări române zece domni, dar și foarte multe personalități care s-au remarcat pe plan politic și cultural. Deși au avut origini străine, Ghiculeștii s-au împământenit treptat atât în Țara Românească, cât și în Moldova și s-au identificat cu interesele țării lor. Astfel îi aflăm implicați în revoluția de la 1848-1849, susținând ideile de emancipare politică și socială, în sprijinirea Unirii din anul 1859 precum și în aducerea prințului străin. Membrii familiei Ghica au fost susținători ai dezvoltării învățământului modern românesc preum și ai artelor și literaturii din pozițiile înalte pe care le-au deținut, fie la Academia Română, fie la conducerea Teatrului Național. Unul dintre ultimii descendenți ai Ghiculeștilor a pierit în temnițele comuniste, constituind un reper în ceea ce privește apărarea și respectarea valorilor morale pe care această familie le-a cultivat de-a lungul istoriei sale. Gheorghe Ghica (1600-1664). Domn al Moldovei (3/13 martie-2/12 noiembrie 1659); domn al Țării Românești ( 20/30 noiembrie 1659-26 aprilie/6 mai 1660; 21/31 mai-1/11 septembrie 1660).

Dutu). In Moldova of the eighteenth century and of the beginning of the nineteenth century, tradition and renewal imprinted the character of the time’s culture, standing on the one hand Enlightenment philosophy, and on the other the Orthodox tradition illustrated by the hesychast revival. The research of the culture in Moldova’s Phanariot period has been the topic of many works of specialists in different fields, as the rich bibliography of the problem proves. Among these stand the old treaties of the Romanian’s history, belonging to A. D. Xenopol, Constantin C. Giurescu and Nicolae Iorga, or the latest published by the Romanian Academy, the different histories of literature, or works such as that of Alexander Dutu, Coordinates of Romanian Culture in the Eighteenth Century.

Gheorghe DIACONU Facultatea de Teologie Ortodoxă, Universitatea „Lucian Blaga” din Sibiu Abstract This study presents, in the first part, the relations of the Patriarchate of Antioch with the Romanian countries from the beginning to the middle of the eighteenth century, having as personalities involved, the Antiochian patriarchs: Joachim V Daw, Macarios III Zaim, Athanasius III Dabbas and Sylvester of Antioch the Cypriot, and on the Romanian side, their contemporary princes from Moldavia and Wallachia. Together with the presentation of these relations, it is highlighted the historic importance for the Romanians of the journey of Macarios III Zaim, the missionary and cultural activity of the Patriarchs Athanasius III Dabbas and Sylvester, following the valuing of the con- tributions of some Romanian and foreign authors, as well as some original or insuffi- ciently used sources by the researchers. By deepening the relations of the last patriarch mentioned, it is presented his struggle to defend the Orthodox faith, aggressed by the propaganda of Catholic missionaries, and the justified support given by the Romanian Principalities for the printing of the first Orthodox books in the Levantine territories and for the establishment of the first Orthodox book workshop in Lebanon and especially for the salvation of this apostolic patriarchate, aggressed by political and religious opponents, by providing lasting financial resources and the dedication of two monasteries: „Saint Spyridon” from Bucharest and „Saint Nicholas” Popăuți. Keywords: Patriarchate of Antioch, Moldavia, Wallachia, Joachim V Daw, Ma- carios III Zaim, Athanasius III Dabbas, Sylvester of Antioch the Cypriot, Antiohian schism, inter-Orthodox relations, aids, dedicated monasteries.
