A prolific historian, a professor of the Andreian Seminary in Sibiu, parish priest of Săliștea and an archpriest of Mărginimea Sibiului, a professor of the ‘King Ferdinand I’ University in Cluj, a titular member of the Romanian Academy, a talented publicist, a co-founder of the Institute of National History in Cluj, a deputy in the Parliament of Greater Romania, a minister in the Averescu and Goga-Cuza governments, a patriot and victim of the Bolshevik regime in the 1950s’ Romania, Ioan Lupaș is a scholar with the aura of a saint. Fr. Lupaș is part of the admirable generation of those who committed themselves with all their power and selflessness to the national movement of the Transylvanian Romanians, those who achieved the Union of Transylvania, Banat, Crișana and Maramureș with the Kingdom of Romania on 1 December 1918 and then fought for the consolidation of national unity during the interwar period. Lupaș is part of the leading gallery of the makers of Greater Romania, and one of the few historians-participants who later wrote relevant pages about the astral event in which they were active participants. The study provides a brief biography of Ioan Lupaș, focusing on the activity of the archpriest at the time of the First World War, his involvement in the organization of the Great National Assembly of Alba Iulia, and the way in which he subsequently remembered the events and feelings experienced in the year of the ‘fortunate fulfilling of long-awaited goals’ and of ‘thoroughly well-deserved triumph’.

Female Portraits from Long Ago. Graphic Artworks in the Collection of the National Museum

Melinda Mitu
Among the multitude of (prevalently male) portraits from the graphic art collections housed by the National Museum of Transylvanian History, there is a small number of nineteenth‑century female portraits, most of which belong to the artistic world of those times. These creations often depict figures from social and aristocratic circles or heroines brought to the public’s attention by special events. The precise artistic investigation of the portraits accomplished in romantic or Biedermeier style is completed by the presence of some compositional portraits in the collections, which bring a note of delicacy and romanticism in an austere environment.

Identity Choices Among Romanian Officers in the Habsburg Army
2021 •
Florina Raita
In recent times, the identity of the Habsburg military has been the subject of numerous studies aiming to explain the behavior of this social-professional category. However, in Romanian historiography, research on this subject is almost completely lacking. The present work aims, first of all, to open the historiographical discussion on the identity choices of Romanian soldiers and officers in the Habsburg army. Alongside national identity and dynastic loyalty, frequently addressed in historiography, special attention should be paid to other types of loyalties or identities, developed within the military environment and related to the appropriation of a welldefined code of honor. It was in this context that the officer's honor, transformed into a military identity, took shape, as well as other types of attachments, such as that to the state, which is different from dynastic loyalty, or that to the territory. Last but not least, this paper also focuses on how all these different identities are harmonized into multiple identities, defining the behavior and actions of the soldiers of the multinational Habsburg army.

The Union of Transylvania, Banat, Crişana and Maramureş with the Kingdom of Romania, adopted on 1 December 1918, enshrined the sincere and freely expressed desire of the Romanians in these lands to be part of Greater Romania. Embraced by the entire Romanian nation, the Alba Iulia decision was rejected by the Hungarian Government led by Mihály Károlyi and militarily opposed by the Bolshevik Government of Béla Kun, installed in Budapest in March 1919. This led to a Romanian‑Hungarian military confrontation that culminated in the occupation of Budapest by the Romanian Army on August 4, 1919 and the removal of the Hungarian communist regime. The Romanian troops were accompanied, in their campaign to Hungary, by seventy military chaplains, a part of them came from Transylvania. Some of them wrote campaign journals, others later recounted their experiences by having them published anthumously and posthumously. Ioan Dăncilă was such a priest. In the interwar period, he became archpriest of the Romanian Army with the rank of lieutenant ‑ colonel. He left to posterity an important theological, historiographical and memoirist work, which is far too little known. In the first part of this study, the life and work of Ioan Dăncilă is briefly described, while in the second part, we present his memoirs of the spring of 1919, when he joined the 90th Infantry Regiment Sibiu in the campaign of the Romanian Army in Hungary.
