Pe urmele Mitropolitului Bartolomeu Valeriu Anania. O expediţie de cercetare genealogică. Contribuţii biografice inedite în anul Centenar
Following in the footsteps of Metropolitan Bartolomeu Valeriu Anania. A genealogical research expedition. Unpublished biographical contributions in the Centenary year

Summary/Abstract: The year 2021 marks one hundred years since the birth of Metropolitan Bartolomeu Anania, of Cluj, Maramureş and Sătmar. On the occasion of this event, we proposed an interdisciplinary cultural route in the following communities: the Transylvanian villages Reciu-Gârbova and Boz-Doştat from Alba county for the identification of the paternal family and the villages of Glăvile and Amărăşti from Vâlcea for the maternal family. The documentation will take place over five days, totaling a route of over 1400 km. The motivation of the research starts from the fact that in the marriage certificate of his parents, Vasile Anania with Ana Mărgăritescu, his father is registered as being born in Reciu village “from the Austro-Hungarian land of Transylvania”, while Metropolitan Bartolomeu Anania declared in the show “The professionals”, made by Eugenia Vodă on TVR 1 Romania, that his Transylvanian origin is in Boz village, Doştat commune. Both villages are located on either side of the road Sebeş - Sibiu. Then, the research will continue in the villages of Amărăşti and Glăvile in Vâlcea County, to complete the biography on the maternal line. The research expedition will also be a cultural pilgrimage, having meetings with members of the families descended from the Ananias. We will go to the town halls and cemeteries of these villages. We’ll learn about how people feel about the preservation of the scholar hierarch’s memory. Our goal is to shed light on the biography of the metropolitan father and to discover the cultural landmarks in his life and activity. In order to achieve the established objective, we will use the method of historical research through documentary, genealogical, topographical and oral tradition.
