Reuniunile române de femei din Comitatul Făgăraș. Înființarea și evoluția lor până la 1 decembrie 1918.
The Reunions of Romanian Women's from Fǎgǎraș County. Their Establishment and Evolution until December 1st, 1918

Summary/Abstract: The main causes which led to the foundation of the Romanian Orthodox and Greek-Catholic Women's Meetings in Transylvania and Banat, starting with 1850, are relatively known: the foundation of girls schools, the support of their own churches, the protection of widows and orphans, the activity of maintaining the Romanian cult and popular culture, helping the confessional schools and their pupils and others. The beginning has taken place in Brașov by the first reunion, founded here in 1850.The appearance and its activity had decisively boosted the foundation of such associations in other important cities and towns from Transylvania – among them appearing the two associations founded in Fǎgǎraș in the second half of the 8th decade in the 19th century: The Romanian Orthodox Women's Reunion from Fǎgǎraș and around, and The Greek-Catholic Romanian Women's Reunion from Fǎgǎraș and around. Relatively nothing consistent about their evolution in the specialized historiography is known, which determined us – based on a register of minutes of the Greek-Catholic Reunion and on the relatively numerous insertions in the newspapers of the time on their actions, sometimes on the seizures that they have been through, regarding the spirit of initiative and the implementation of some charitable actions and the spirit of sacrifice during the Romanian Independence War and the First World War – to focus more intensely on all the aspects and to try and bring to light, at first, some of their major accomplishments and areas of competence assumed by statutes.
