Preliminary notes on the issue of the Romanian language in Moldavian SSR during the first postwar years, 1944-1948

Summary/Abstract: Preliminary notes on the issue of the Romanian language in Moldavian SSR during the first postwar years, 1944-1948. In this paper the author deals with the issue of the Romanian language in the Moldavian SSR during the first postwar years. CC of the CP(B) from Moldavian SSR tried several times to determine the loyal researchers from the Institute of Scientific Research to organize teams for writing textbooks of Romanian (named by them Moldavian) language and literature. Also existed the intention to organize courses for Party staff the main part of whom came from abroad and didn’t know the Romanian language. All these attempts fails as it shows the report of V. Efimenko who came from Moscow to evaluate the situation of the national staff in the republic in 1947. Even if Moldavian were 68% of inhabitants, in Universities only 25% of students had Moldavian origin. The question of the language was discussed also by writers, but they hadn’t the initiative on this topic and waited for suggestions from above. For the majority of the inhabitants the main problem concerning the education was the lack of the textbooks of Romanian Language and Literature, and that’s why several times the newspaper were used as source of working texts. This first stage of avatars of the Romanian language in Moldavian SSR ends in 1948 when the Ministery of Education organized a control at the Pedagogical Institute from Chisinau, to establish the way the language and literature were taught. The conclusion was that at the Institute had no textbboks on several courses and the Council of Ministers from Moldavian SSR had to impose the Institute of History, Language and Literature to elaborate the programs for teaching Moldavian language and literature in Universities.
