Vasile V. Moisescu: piramidologul evanghelic român
Vasile V. Moisescu: the Romanian Evangelical Pyramidologist

Summary/Abstract: Vasile V. Moisescu, best known as Vasilică Moisescu, was a Romanian evangelical intellectual, perhaps one of the best known of the 20th century, and a scholar with various fields of interests, especially the theological and pyramidological one. Appreciated by some, but challenged by others, between 1958 and 1964 he was a political prisoner for religious reasons, and then the rest of his life he was put under surveillance by the political police – Securitate, being considered an „enemy of the regime”. Around him, he coalesced a group of believers, who in time came to be known as „Moisişti”, most of whom were arrested and imprisoned with him. His biography reveals two realities of the era. On the one hand, the condition of the Evangelicals in the first decades of the communist regime, and on the other, the condition of intellectuals during the same period.
