Summary/Abstract: The Romanians in Transylvania accomplished in the 19th century the transition from the old self-sufficient rural society to a society dominated by bourgeoisie values. The intellectual elite, trained in the educational institutions of the Habsburg Empire, in Vienna, Budapest, Oradea, Cluj, Schemmitz, is the expression of the assumption of these new values. Overall, more than 2041 Romanians studied in the first half of the 19th century in the colleges and universities of the Empire.
