Biserica și școala în Transilvania în a doua jumătate a sec. al XIX-lea. Corespondența dintre Gimnaziul grăniceresc din Năsăud și Episcopia greco-catolică de la Gherla
The Church and the School in Transylvania in the Second Half of the 19th Century. Correspondence between the Border Gymnasium in Năsăud and the Greek-Catholic Diocese in Gherla

Summary/Abstract: In the second half of the 19th century, in Transylvania, the relationship between the Church and the school was essential for the preservation of the Romanian national identity. Confessional education, especially Greek Catholic, was organized and supported by local communities and church authorities, especially in former border areas such as Năsăud. The Austro-Hungarian state gradually limited the Church's autonomy over education, through laws that imposed control over curricula, language of instruction, and salaries. Correspondence between the Border Gymnasium in Năsăud and the Greek Catholic Diocese of Gherla reflects the Church's involvement in the appointment of teachers, approval of textbooks, material support of schools, and supervision of students. After 1893, the direct influence of the Diocese in school life decreased, along with the increase in state control.
