Summary/Abstract: On the 60th anniversary of the passing of Metropolitan Andrei Şaguna, the professor and rector of the Theological Academy in Sibiu, Nicolae Colan, the future bishop of Cluj, gave a commemorative speech on the occasion of a memorial service held in the metropolitan cathedral of Sibiu. The panegyric broadly evokes the activity of Metropolitan Şaguna, insisting on the constitutional organization of the metropolis, the hierarch’s contribution to the reform and modernization of Orthodox confessional education in Transylvania, the theological school in Sibiu, the founding of the periodical “Telegraful Român” and the Association for Romanian Literature and the Culture of the Romanian people from Transylvania.
