Summary/Abstract: The role assumed by Nicolae Ivan on the Transylvanian political level, especially during the period when he was a consistorial assessor in Sibiu, was not just a sustained activity in the pages of the Romanian Telegraph. Since 1906, Nicolae Ivan faces a difficult aspect: although he occupies a leading position in the Romanian National Party in Transylvania, being its Vice President, he does not hesitate to actively encourage the youth gathered around Octavian Goga, which will operate as a pressure group to the Transylvanian cultural, political and ecclesiastical field. Although in many times inconvenient to the famous elites of the time, this intransigent youth will always have the fatherly support of this assesor from Sibiu, which alongside Miron Cristea, Roman Ciorogariu, remained, despite accusations from his own party, an advocate of reformed politics. This study is, thus, trying to compose the profile of one of the most representative figures in our Transylvanian church, an emblematic figure for his intersections with the sphere of power, whether ecclesiastical, political or cultural.
