Visarion Puiu, primul mitropolit ortodox român la Paris
Visarion Puiu, the first Romanian Orthodox Metropolitan at Paris

Summary/Abstract: The case of Visarion Puiu metropolitan, the only bishop of the Romanian Orthodox Church who remained exiled after the Romanian territory was occupied by the Soviet troops in August 1944 and who was condemned to death in February 1946 and defrocked by the Holy Synod of the Romanian Orthodox Church in 1950, is still one of the most controversial topics of the recent Romanian church historiography. Having been studied by pieces and very few times thoroughly researched, not edited or read at his true contribution to the Romanian Contemporary Theology, Visarion Puiu still represents a long debatable yet little known personage.
