Ștefan Zeletin
Ștefan Zeletin (born Ștefan Motăș; June 19, 1882 – July 20, 1934) was a Romanian philosopher, sociologist, liberal economist and political theorist. Biography Born in Răchitoasa, Burdusaci, Bacău County, his mother Catinca Motăș (''née'' Chiriac) was the daughter of Ștefanache Chiriac, a local official of Greek origin from the nearby village of MotoÈ™eni, Ursa. Her husband, the ''postelnic'' Dumitrache Motăș, died sixteen years before Zeletin's birth. The latter's father is unknown (one possibility is the local mayor and well-off landowner Neculache Brăescu), and he remained sensitive to the fact of his illegitimate birth, adopting a pseudonym (after the Zeletin River (Berheci), Zeletin River that passes through Burdusaci) to distance himself from his mother's husband. He grew up in a peasant family of the bourgeoisie, which he would later analyze in his work. Mihai Sorin Rădulescu"O carte despre Ștefan Zeletin" in ''România Literară'', Nr. 39/2002 He atten ...
