DIVERSITÄT DER SPUREN. PROMINENTE PERSÖNLICHKEITEN UND DAS BANAT
DIVERSITY OF TRACES. PROMINENT PERSONALITIES AND THE BANAT

Summary/Abstract: This article shows that the echo of very important people in a region depends on three different factors, if they were born in the region, if they were relevant to country and population; further if foreigners lived in the region or made something relevant for the region, or if the persons visited only shortly or coincidentally the region and did not produce any traces within the region. The examples of the first category are Dositej Obradović, Nikolaus Lenau and Felix Milleker, who were born in the Banat. The examples of the second category are prince Eugen of Savoy and the emperor Josef II., who managed to accomplish a lot in favour of the Banat. The examples of the third category are Hans Christian Andersen, Franz Grillparzer and Johann Strauss Son, who did not leave any remarkable traces within the Banat.
