The study explores the historical context in which some female figures gained a legendary aura. As well, we focused on the processes by which they entered the gallery of Romanian historical personalities. We also researched whether the selection of female figures was dependent on the gender stereotypes of the period.
The study follows the theoretical framework of gender history studies. We applied it to a case study of Transylvania in the second half of the nineteenth century.
The approach starts from the presumption that, during this period of time, the roles that Romanians had to assume in the national project were gender determined. We argue that the intellectuals’ efforts to offer common people an example to inspire their behavior connect with the Romanians’ emancipation movement in the Austro-Hungarian Empire. In this context, a series of historical personalities were promoted as role models for Romanians. In fact, the national mythological pantheon was articulated also because of this debate over the ideal Romanian man and woman.

The Great Union Day is well approached in Romanian historiography yet less is known about women’s presence and reactions to this historical day. We have indeed the figures but they do not reveal the whole range of emotions, reactions of women thus the study focused on these aspects through the analysis of such historical records as memoires, journals, public speeches and official documents.</abstract>

The wounding of the Hungarian king Matthias Corvinus in the battle of Baia with Stephen the Great, in 1467, is known and true. The issues that need to be clarified and that we proposed in this study, concern the weapon(s) that caused the king’s wound during the Battle of Baia; if there were arrows, how many arrows struck the king’s body; what parts of the body were pierced by the arrow(s); how did Matia Corvin’s wound heal: naturally or through the intervention of a surgeon? All this has given rise to some controversies, which we would like to analyze from the most important known sources.

This paper takes on the role of reconstructing Iosif Patriciu’s case during his mandate as the deputy general inspector of schools from Moldavia (autumn 1851-summer 1852). Overlooked by literature, he quickly arose, becoming a Latin, Arithmetics, and History teacher at the Codreanu School in Barlad by passing the exam, in October 1846, and later, the director of Internat in Iaşi and a member &amp; secretary for the School Council. As a deputy general inspector of schools, he proved to be a striking opponent for all the teachers who made a habit out of skipping classes or treated their job superficially, as mentioned in the reports sent by the Department of Education (Departamentul Învăţăturilor Publice). He proposed solutions to lower the high rate of pupil absenteism with the School Council, using German law as a reference. Iosif Patriciu had to manage a challenging collaboration with the Department’s director, Grigore Cuza, because of misunderstandings while enforcing new curriculum in primary and secondary classes. His mandate ended when the new inspector general of schools, August Treboniu Laurian, arrived in Iaşi, with whom he will have worked closely until the beginning of 1858.

In order to define the new religious movements on Romanian territory beginning in the 19th century, the following terms need to be explained: sect Church, Evangelical Church, and Neo-Protestant Church.
First, the term ‘sect’ has negative connotations, and it is being used more and more seldom after the Communist era. Second, the term ‘Evangelical’ is currently more accepted even by historians (such as Dorin Dobrincu) but it still can be confusing because it refers to German Lutherans. Finally, the term ‘Neo-Protestant’ is problematic because it can lead to confusion about modern Lutheran Protestantism, which is called in German Neoprotestantismus.
This work uses the term ‘Neo-Protestant’ as it will be shown that these cults have a historical sustainability of classical Protestantism bringing new aspects but still respecting the same frame, the same matrix.

The First Parliamentary Elections In Năsăud County, Organized After The Accession Of King Carol II
The elections organized in 1931 represent the first electoral events after the ascension to the throne of King Carol II. The weak authority of the regency meant that the restoration was done without any major opposition from the citizens, who, on the contrary, welcomed the event. In Năsăud county, Carol’s arrival and proclamation as king was received with great enthusiasm by the population and the authorities.
After the resignation of the P.N.Ţ government, the King tasked N. Iorga to form a government of national union. This government was, in fact, the first technocratic government in Romanian history. The national union was also organized in Năsăud county, where it had a joint list with the liberals and campaigned against P. N. Ţ. By appointing this government, the King wanted to show the parties that a government can be made outside of the parties.
After the June 1931 general elections in Năsăud county, the National Union obtained the two senatorial mandates and one deputy mandate, the People’s Party received one deputy mandate, and the other deputy mandate went to P.N.Ţ.The Iorga government was actually an attempt by King Carol II to govern outside of the parties and over the parties, an experiment that ultimately was a failure, the following governments belonging to the parties.

Letters, unusual postcards, censored, illustrate the mood on the front, conveyed by two participants to the world’s first conflagration. The first letter, dated October 26, 1916, belongs to Lieutenant D. Stoica, commander of the Second Section Telegraph. A simple letter, which expresses much optimism, sent to his wife Ionela, two months after Romania’s entry into the national reunification war, accompanied by his portrait. The second letter, dated 1918, is more intense in terms of experiences, sent to a lady named Marie Ionescu, by a Romanian wounded during the battles. The letter, from the stamp that only marks the year 1918, could be dated approximately after November this year. The militant was in convalescence in a camp hospital, waiting to be resent on the front.

<abstract><title style='display:none'>Abstract</title>This research focuses on the life of Cardinal Alfonso Visconti reconstructing the years of his religious formation until his arrival in Rome: from the activity carried out at the Congregation of the Oratory founded by San Filippo Neri, to the diplomatic career conducted in the service of the Holy See. After serving in Portugal and Prague, at the court of Rudolf II, between 1595 and 1598 he was sent on a diplomatic mission, as nuncio, to the Prince of Transylvania Zsigmond Báthory. His mission took place in a dramatic historical phase for Danubian-Balkan Europe, threatened by the power of the Turkish “infidel”.The article aims to reconstruct the main phases of Visconti’s difficult mission, which had been sent to this peripheral part of the continent, but very important on a geopolitical level, with the aim of creating the anti-Turkish crusade so much desired by Pope Clement VIII</abstract>
