Cluj Academic Leadership Endorsement to the Knowledge and Study of Modern Languages

Summary/Abstract: In this article we want to show that both the University from Cluj and the Commercial Academy from Cluj provided students with a real basis for acquiring foreign language knowledge in a fundamental and advanced shape. We can assert that in 1919, for the first time in Transylvania, a higher education institution in Romania started to function, which is why we can consider without hesitation that the Romanian University from Cluj was created exclusively due to the Great Union and the inclusion of Transylvania in the Romanian Kingdom. The contributions made by Professor Sextil Pușcariu to reorganizing and re-establishing the University of Cluj are complemented by those made by former rectors with scientific and educational activity in the fields of literature, Romanian language and culture, such as: Nicolae Bănescu, Gheorghe Bogdan- Duică, Nicolae Drăganu, Emil Petrovici and Ion Vlad. Another dimension we wish to approach is the leadership of the Academy of Commercial and Industrial Studies from Cluj/Brașov in connection with knowledge and reputation acquired in the linguistic sphere.
