This article tries to demonstrate that these notes, aside from the cultural information they carry, represent a stage in the formation of the concept of “author”, as we understand it in our modern culture.

In this case, however, the examination of the textual tradition starts from stipulating an intentio auctoris which, in the opinion of E. D. Hirsch (1967), is leading to the work of art’s meaning, a semantic reality different from the one named significance, configured in the reading process. Central to this argument is the idea that the authorial…

It was taken into account the statements expressed by the representatives of the church (official, semiofficial and personal) on the one hand and on the other hand the secular authorities of that age and Romanian intellectuals grouped in the Transylvanian School.

His works about the history of the Ottoman Empire and the Description of Moldavia, were translated in English, German and French and remained capital works until the end of XIXth century. However nowadays, outside Romania his works are known only by specialists. New digital technologies offer the possibility to annotate and display his texts in a much readable manner. Names of places, persons, dates can be mapped on existent databases and/or maps and linked with other knowledge bases. On such annotations complex queries are possible. In this article we will describe an ongoing project at the University of Hamburg, aiming to realise a digital edition of the German translations of…

Their opposite terms both result out of his humanistic culture and education. In order to achieve this goal we analysed on the one hand the defining elements of the critical rationalism found in his Hronic through which history is subjected to thorough processes of demythologization, removal of rhetoric, and objectification. On the other hand, we attempted to emphasize an opposite movement against historical criticism, i.e. promoting traditional mythical structures or establishing a new historical mythology of humanistic nature due to which Dimitrie Cantemir is now considered one of the main forerunners of modern nationalism.

We will consider Incrementorum et decrementorum Aulae Othmannicae libri tres, Historia Moldo-Vlachica, De antiquis et hodiernis Moldaviae nominibus, Descriptio antiqui et hodierni status Moldaviae, Vita Constantini Cantemyrii. The aim of the research is to identify the influences on Romanian spelling of these words, continuing the research undertaken by Academician Gheorghe Mihăilă (2008), in Descriptio Moldaviae, as well as the solutions proposed by Cantemir, especially on the words rarely or never documented in his bibliographical sources. Anthroponyms and names of the places have been discussed in our previous articles. We intend to bring additions and improvements to our research on the Latin works of the Moldavian Prince; we are not very much concerned with the Latinized forms, but…

This research mainly concerns Dacia vetus et nova, a project that has been reconstructed based on the few conserved fragments and their reception, as well as its role in configuring the way the French Enlightenment understood the unity of the three Romanian provinces.

The explicit Christian perspective and, nevertheless, the direct knowledge of the Ottoman realia are elements that connect the two writings, separated by a century and a half of impetuous history. Related to different moments of the Ottoman Empire, the two works, belonging to authors placed in totally opposed positions (slave and prince), ought to have a parallel lecture.
