Șcheii Brașovului
Șcheii BraÈ™ovului ( hu, Bolgárszeg, german: Belgerei or more recently ''Obere Vorstadt''; traditional Romanian name: ''Bulgărimea'', colloquially ''Șchei'') is the old ethnically Bulgarian and Romanian neighborhood of BraÈ™ov, a city in southeastern Transylvania, Romania. This village-like section of the town is mostly made up of small houses built along narrow roads with gardens and small fields on the slopes of the Tâmpa Mountain. History Until the 17th century, the inhabitants of Șchei were forbidden from owning property inside the city walls. The people living in the Șchei could only enter the town at certain times and had to pay a toll at the Catherine's Gate for the privilege of selling their produce inside the town. Catherine's Gate was the only entrance for the Romanians — they were not allowed to use the other four entrances, such as the Șchei Gate. It was in Șchei that BraÈ™ov's first Romanian School was established, next to the Romanian Orthodox church of ...

Andrei Mureșanu
Andrei MureÈ™anu (; November 16, 1816 in BistriÈ›a – October 12, 1863 in BraÈ™ov) was a Romanian poet and revolutionary of Transylvania. Born in a family of a small business owner in the countryside, he studied philosophy and theology in Blaj. In 1838 he started working as a professor in BraÈ™ov. He published his first poetry in the magazine ''Foaie pentru minte, inimă È™i literatură'' (''Paper for mind, heart and literature''). He was one of the leading figures of the 1848 revolution in Transylvania, taking part in the BraÈ™ov delegation at the Blaj Assembly in May 1848. His poem ''DeÈ™teaptă-te, române!'', composition based on a popular tune of an old religious anthem, became the hymn of the revolutionaries. Nicolae Bălcescu named it "''La Marseillaise'' of Romanians" for its ability to mobilize the people to fight. The poem later became the national anthem of Romania in 1990. After the revolution, MureÈ™anu worked as a translator in Sibiu Sibiu ( , , german: ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Deșteaptă-te, Române!
"" ("Awaken Thee, Romanian!"; ) is the national anthem of Romania and former national anthem of Moldova. The lyrics were composed by Andrei MureÈ™anu (1816–1863), and the music was popular (it was chosen for the poem by Gheorghe Ucenescu, as most sources say). It was written and published during the 1848 revolution, initially with the name "Un răsunet" ("An echo"), as a lyrical response to Vasile Alecsandri’s poem "Către Români" ("To Romanians"), later known as "DeÈ™teptarea României" ("The Awakening of Romania"), from which MureÈ™anu took inspiration for many of the themes and motifs of his own lyrics, a fact that is reflected in the overall similarity between the two poems. The original text was written in the Romanian Cyrillic alphabet. It was first sung in late June in the same year in the city of BraÈ™ov, on the streets of the Șcheii BraÈ™ovului neighborhood and it became immediately the revolutionary anthem. Since then, this patriotic song has been sung during all ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |
