The Boyars of Stephen the Great. Genealogical Connections and Heraldic Inheritance

Boierii lui Ştefan cel Mare. Conexiuni genealogice şi moşteniri heraldice

Author(s): Lucian-Valeriu Lefter,Tudor-Radu Tiron / Language(s): Romanian / Issue: 1/2013

Keywords: Moldavian boyars; kinship; seals; heraldic symbols

The “structure” on which the present study was built is the genealogical chart of the great boyars of Moldavia from the time of Stephen the Great, published in 2010 by the second author and enriched in the present paper. The authors use for genealogical purposes the sigillographic sources preserved on the external documents of the Moldavian rulers, from the end of the 14th century until the beginning of the 16th (documents with an anniversary character, addressed to the kings of Poland and preserved in the Archiwum Główne Akt Dawnych from Warsaw), whose seals were recently deciphered and reproduced by the Ukrainian researcher Oleg Odnorojenko. Some of the connections which were revealed could help filling up some “gaps” from the documentary sources, while others proved false leads. Overall the authors argue that making use of the content of the boyars’ seals is indispensible for a better knowledge of the history of our former ruling class.

The Movilești.Final Considerations

Movileștii. Considerații finale

Author(s): Ştefan S. Gorovei / Language(s): Romanian / Issue: 32/2013

Keywords: Movilesti family; Medieval; kinship

The research of Movila family’s history and genealogy has so far focused especially on the branch (descending from chancellor IoanMovila) where seven princes and two metropolitan bishops were born, one of them famous throughout Europe – PetruMovila, archbishop and metropolitan bishop of Kiev. In the first part of the study, the author analyzes the information related to another branch, less visible in Moldavia’s history, descending from the brother of chancellor Ioan, governor VăscanMovilă. This personage is attested in documents as one of his sons, bearing the diminutive form of the family name, Moviliţă. The second part of the study examines the possibility that a personage of the first half of the 17th century, Captain Adam Moviliţă, could belong to the same family, as a descendant from a separate branch at the beginning of the 16th century. Several persons bearing identical names (Moghilă, Movilă, Moghiliţă, Moviliţă), and owning estates in the southern part of Moldaviaprove the existence of this branch, and their kinship to the princely branch is suggested by a common property. Adam Moviliţă appears in the same area, and his name and social status (pointed by kinships through marriage) plead for his membership to this group. We can conclude that the kinship with the reigning branch is not a fantasy.

BUILDING A SCHOOL CULTURE AND BEING PROACTIVE IN REMOVING BARRIERS AND OBSTACLES THAT LEAD TO EXCLUSION

Author(s): Magda-Elena Samoila / Language(s): English / Issue: 05/2014

Keywords: socio – educational strategies; classroom behavioural strategies

Deviant juvenile behaviour is increasing proportionally with the decreasing educational control, whereas the urban areas are more exposed to antisocial actions, compared to the rural ones. If in the past, sociologists considered as necessary a certain level of anomie to support the social balance, today, the reverse of the normal-abnormal dichotomy draws a question mark. For this reason the sociologists introduced the concept of juvenile pre-delinquency, defined as all deviant behaviours of young people, without harmful content, that lead to antisocial acts. The purpose of the program detailed in this study is to bring together the educational services in order to adopt a set of preventive measures, and practical approaches aiming at reducing deviant behaviours among juveniles.

Keywords: Votive reliefs; stone-workshops; local productions; Greek-Roman deities.

Tibiscum is an important military and civilian settlement from south-western part of Dacia Superior. In the fort several units were garrisoned, mainly from oriental provinces of the Empire and beside the fortification the civil settlement quickly flourished and in the beginning of the IIIrd century AD the settlement here become a municipium or at least some part of it. The votive stone carvings discovered in the fort, the vicus or the municipium represent, in general, Greco-Roman divinities regardless of the fact that the main troops forming the garrison here were of oriental origin. Were discovered representations of Jupiter, Diana, Mercury, Silvanus, Liber Pater, Venus, Hercules etc.; along them several representation of Danubian Riders and two Epona representations. Some votive carvings were made in stone workshops from Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa, others were made somewhere in the South of the Danube line and some others are made locally. The ones produced locally are easy traceable because they are of small size and very schematized.

Keywords: taboo; prohibition; culture; ban; rule; sexuality; unspeakable

The article is focused on the effect of critical thinking strategies for intercultural competences development. The competences development is the most important aim of school. The new competences that are necessary today are: the ability to select information, tolerance, critical thinking, communicational skills, empathy, to solve problems, to work in a team, to form value judgments. Kim (1991) considers that the essence of intercultural competence is the ability to change, to transform the human beings from rigid, intolerant and boring into open, flexible, creative and not closed ones. For developing intercultural competences is not enough only theoretical knowledge: there are necessarily behaviors that promote tolerance, empathy, assertive communication. A solution to develop intercultural competences is critical thinking strategies. This kind of learning strategies is focused on group and relationship. In our research, we were interested in identifying the impact of critical thinking strategies on students’ intercultural competences. The research involved 100 students who are using critical thinking strategies. The quantitative results and the qualitative analysis show that the critical thinking strategies have a major impact on developing intercultural competences. These learning strategies offered the opportunity to reflect and develop our own social behavior. The students have competences: critical thinking, tolerance, flexibility, communication skills.

Social and Medical Ethics: Implications for Romanian Protocols Regarding the Therapy of Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome in Trauma Patients

Social and Medical Ethics: Implications for Romanian Protocols Regarding the Therapy of Alcohol Withdrawal Syndrome in Trauma Patients

Author(s): Alexandru Bogdan Ciubara,Aurel Nechita,Razvan Cosmin TUDOR,Madalina MATEI,Dana TUTUNARU,Paul Dan SIRBU / Language(s): English / Issue: 60/2018

Keywords: alcohol withdrawal; social implications; alcohol addiction; alcohol withdrawal in trauma services; benzodiazepines versus alcoholic solutions;

In medical practice, a particularly important therapeutic problem is the patient with traumatic injuries developing ethanol withdrawal during hospitalization. The management of such patients requires both a comprehensive approach in terms of therapy and a very delicate one regarding issues of medical ethics and social implications and costs. More medical schools, among which the ones in France, the US, the UK, etc., opt for the administration of alcoholic solutions, perfusable ones included, for preventing withdrawal symptoms. We consider that currently the relevant Romanian protocols are inappropriate as they ignore the fact that an addiction can be cured only if the patient is willing to and, even if this is the case, alcohol dependence is unlikely to be cured. Therefore, we believe that the preventive administration of certain alcoholic solutions in hospital would be beneficial both to the patient’s evolution and to the prevention of the social implications of treating the alcohol withdrawal syndrome (AWS) in a trauma center or intensive care unit.

Pedagogical Objectives Of Teaching Intercultural Communication Competence

Pedagogical Objectives Of Teaching Intercultural Communication Competence

Author(s): Mihaela Pricope / Language(s): English / Issue: 11/2013

Keywords: teaching objectives; intercultural communication; foreign students;

In the contemporary educational system we can remark a change of paradigm towards active learning and competence-based education. However, we should not understand that this is a radical change and that education has abandoned teaching knowledge in favour of competences. This is impossible, since competences include knowledge in their structure, and teaching has different functions, among which one remains that of transmitting knowledge. The cultural diversity found at educational level is an extraordinary source of progress and innovation regarding the teaching methodology and the academic communication. This diversity should be valued and used as a resource, so that academic results could appear and, along with them, the student’s/teacher’s satisfaction. This article explores the foreign students’ perceptions regarding what makes effective communication in an intercultural academic environment. The findings show differences according to the culture of origin, which lead us to the conclusion that intercultural communication competence could be built in a multicultural classroom by setting specific objectives related to comparing cultures and raising students’awareness about the importance of differences as enriching experience.

The school, as community of learning the democratic behavior

Author(s): Ion Albulescu / Language(s): English / Issue: 7/2009

Keywords: education; school; democratic behavior; social norms; social integration;

Die Erziehung zu einer demokratischen Persönlichkeit kann in verschiedenen Formen realisiert werden und ist ein kontinuierlicher Prozess dessen Fundamente sich während der Schulzeit entwickeln und konsolidieren. Neben dem Studium der Pflichtdisziplinen werden die Schüler im Rahmen der schulischen Erziehung für ein aktives und verantwortungsvolles soziales und demokratisches Bewusstsein vorbereitet., auch wenn diese Vorbereitung im schulischen Alltag nicht immer als vordergründig erscheint. Im schulischen Alltag lernen die Jungen Menschen bestimmte Verhaltensregeln und Normen die sie später in ihrem Versuch umsetzen können und verschiedene Integrationsmöglichkeiten in der Gesellschaft auszuüben. Junge Menschen lernen durch den schulischen Alltag sich an bestimmte Regeln und Normen zu orientieren, sich anzueignen um die besten Wege zur Integration in die Gesellschaft für sich zu finden. Dieser Prozess orientiert sich permanent an Werte, wie zum Beispiel Toleranz, Solidarität und Verantwortung. In diesem Artikel wird in erster Linie auf diese Entwicklungs und Formierungsmöglichkeiten durch den schulischen Alltag aufmerksam gemacht.

The article offers a brief historical outline of a particular research trend inTranslation Studies focusing on various psychological aspects of translation.Drawing heavily on linguistics, but also closely akin to sociological studies, thepsychology of translation brings to the fore not only the translator, but alsoother translation agents, the text, the process of translation, the reader etc. – inother words, most of the key elements defining translation. A shift of focus canbe identified from a strictly behavioural analysis of translation towards an indepth investigation of the all-pervasive emotion / subjectivity which affects allkinds of decision-making or problem-solving behaviours in the field oftranslation.

At the begining of the new millenium Mures, County Library celebrated both two hundred years of public reading at Tärgu-Mures and ninety years of existence. The first anniversary is connected to Teleki Library, one of the most valuable European cultural treasure. It was the private library of count Teleki Samuel (1734-1822) and contains some of the most important books that could be found during the 18 and 19 century. In 1802 Teleki decides to share his library to all those interested in reading. The second anniversary reffers to the building of the so-called Cultural Palace and the inauguration of City Library. The Cultural Palace was build between 1911-1913 according to the plans made by Komor Marozell and Jakab Dezső. Its role was to shelter the City Library, the local Music Academy, the Museum of Ethnography, a school for foreign languages, a conference hall and a concert hall. Its impressive ornamentation — paintings, bas-reliefs, stained glass windows etc. — realised by Körösfai K. Aladár, Roth Micsa and Nag}' Sándor, transformed the building into a real artistic monument. The library was very well organized on modern bases: sixty places at the reading-hall, modern furniture, glass cases for exhibitions etc. Its capacity of storing books was about 300 thousand unities. The first responsable for the library's well function was Molnár Gabor, one of the financial upholders of the building. In 1922, Aurel Filimon also began his activity at this library; he tried and succeded in enriching the library's collections with o lot of valorous books. After the tragic moments from the begining of the 40's, a lot of changes took place in this library: Filimon was fired and the new manager became Vigh Károly, who had to comply with the new requests: the withdrawal of Romanian books, the donation of bibliophile values etc. After World War, the institution had to obbey to Sovietic influences and, in this way, began the most dramatic period of cultural censorship. According to the new rules, in 1951 the City Library became Regional Library and Rácz Béla was appointed as manager. He was succeded by Bártok Ibolya, Halász Borbála, Stefan Stänoiu, Solomon Frätilä, Romeo Pojan, Iulius Moldovan; in 1985 the library's manager became Dimitrie Poptämas. In 1974 the Regional Library became County Library and among its dudes, it had to be a kind of supervizor for all the librairies from Mures County. In the same year, Teleki Library was subordinated to County Library.
