Summary/Abstract: This study focuses on the two questionnaires, launched by Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu, in 1878 and 1884, stressing their relevance and importance in the history of systematic researches on Romanian traditional culture (mythology, ritual studies, folk religion, language and literature), in all Romanian Kingdom provinces. It also analyzes the crucial influence of these surveys in the 20-th century Romanian ethnological and anthropological qualitative methodology: developed in the frame of various philological trends in ethnology, in Bucharest, Cluj and Iasi and also in sociological and anthropo-geographical approaches around the same centers.
