Memorial Notes of Iuliu Moisil about Museums and Collections

Summary/Abstract: This article wants to present some information about the museum activity of the intellectual Iuliu Moisil (1859-1947) as it appears in his own notes. Alternating the public register with the intimate one in an inspired way, the biographical notes dedicated to his museum activity focus on several thematic pillars – cultural, social, educational, political – projecting on the huge canvas of history the story of Moisil’s impressive activity on the cultural scene of Modern Romania. Starting from here, the article analyzes the confessions that Moisil makes to posterity in an attempt to communicate a vision of his own activity carried out in a museum field, especially in the period 1894-1946. Complemented by many letters, articles and photographs, all these life writings have the power to enrich our historical understanding of the personality of the intellectual from Năsăud, in a way that can hardly be replicated by any other source used as research material.
