Tatars and turks in romanian historiography and fiction. Simion Florea Marian and his legends from Bucovina

Summary/Abstract: Raymond Aron wrote in his “Introduction to the Philosophy of History” that “work is, to the same extent as consciousness, an object of history.” Literary works or writings are often important historical sources, which, corroborated with the other branches of history, contribute to a better knowledge of the truth. The historical imaginary, along with the historiographic and the fiction‑artistic one, have their histories. A special case is the writings that have as their subject the Turks and Tatars who came into contact with the Romanians, starting from folklore texts to contemporary writers. They can also be studied (or not) through an orientalistic representation grid. In the study below, there is an analysis of the texts collected in Bucovina by the folklorist Simion Florea Marian, who was neglected in the most important profile work, Cornelia Călin Bodea’s “Romanians and Ottomans in Romanian folklore”, published in 1998
