Summary/Abstract: The following study presents some aspects of primary and secondary school education in Bukovina based on several articles published by the first Romanian newspaper in this province of the Habsburg Monarchy. Emphasis is placed on the general situation of the schools in Bukovina from the perspective of the Austrian Ministry of Public Instruction project on the reorganization of the gymnasiums and of the teaching staff, as well as on the implementation of the educational measures aimed at introducing the German language as an official language. The editors of “Bucovina” Gazette, intellectuals trained in Enlightenment, were in favour of the introduction of measures to modernize the curriculum in accordance with the advances of time, as long as the education in Romanian would also be kept in schools, as considered essential for the preservation of the Romanian national spirit.
