| ARTICLES RELATED TO Iaşi | | | |  Iaşi: Encyclopedia II - Abraham Goldfaden - IaşiArriving in Iaşi in 1876, Goldfaden was fortunate to be better known as a good poet — many of whose poems had been set to music and had become popular songs — than as a less-than-successful businessman. When he sought funds from Yitzhak Librescu for another newspaper, Librescu was uninterested in that proposition. Librescu's wife remarked that Yiddish-language journalism was just a way to starve; she suggested that there would be a lot more of a market for Yiddish-language theater. Librescu offered Goldfaden 100 francs for a public recital of his songs in the garden of Shimen Mark, Gradina P ...

| | | | Iaşi: Encyclopedia II - Iaşi - History Around 1564, Prince Alexandru Lăpuşneanu moved the Moldavian capital from Suceava to Iaşi. Between 1561 and 1563, an excellent school and a Lutheran church were founded by the Greek adventurer, Jacob Basilicus. In 1640, Vasile Lupu established the first school in which the mother-tongue replaced Greek, and set up a printing press in the Byzantine church of the Three Hierarchs (built 1635–39). In 1643, the first printed book published in Moldavia was issued. Iaşi was burned down by the Tatars in 1513, by the Turks in 1538, by the Russians in 1686, and in 1734, ...

| | | | Iaşi: Encyclopedia II - Dimitrie Cantemir - Life and family Dimitrie was the son of Moldavian Voivode Constantin Cantemir (and brother to Antioh Cantemir, himself Prince), from the boyar family of Cantemir (lower Moldavian nobility). His mother, Ana Bantăş, was a learned and enlightened woman of noble origins.

His education began at home, where he learned Greek and Latin an ...

| | | | Iaşi: Encyclopedia II - History of Bucharest - Ancient times Much of the territory of Bucharest and Ilfov county was covered by the thick forests of Codrii Vlăsiei. This was probably the reason why no large city was developed in the area in antiquity. However, there were many small settlements of the Getae (or Dacians), an Indo-European people.
Small Dacian settlements were found in various places around Bucharest, such as Herăstrău, Radu Vodă, Dămăroaia, Lacul Tei, Pantelimon and Popeşti-Leordeni. We know that these populations had commercial links with the Romans, judging by the jewels and c ...

| | | | Iaşi: Encyclopedia II - Junimea - The theory of forms without substance After the Treaty of Adrianople of 1829, the Danubian Principalities (Moldavia and Wallachia) were allowed to engage in trade with other countries than those under Ottoman rule and with this, a great opening toward the European economy and culture was achieved. However, the Junimists argued, through their theory of "Forms Without Substance" (Teoria Formelor Fără Fond) that the Romanian culture and society immitated the Western culture, but only in its form and still lacked a foundation. Romania possesed all the institutions of a mode ...

| | | | Iaşi: Encyclopedia II - Secular Jewish culture - Literary and artistic culture In some places where there have been relatively high concentrations of Jews, distinct secular Jewish subcultures have arisen. For example, ethnic Jews formed an enormous proportion of the literary and artistic life of Vienna, Austria at the end of the 19th century, or of New York City 50 years later (and Los Angeles in the mid-late 20th century), and for the most part these were not particularly religious people. In general, however, Jewish artist ...
