Summary/Abstract: Through this work, published three years ago, young historian Mircea Abru-dan offers us a substantial monographic contribution regarding one of the excep-tional personalities of the Romanian na-tion in the Habsburg Empire, Orthodox bishop Andrei Șaguna. Initially presented as a doctoral thesis at the Faculty of His-tory and Philosophy, under the coordina-tion of professors Nicolae Bocșan and Rudolf Gräf, the present book is not de-void of a celebratory connotation: the year before its printing, 2014, marked the 150th anniversary of the concretization of the great Șagunian project: the foundation (re-activation) of the Transylvanian Orthodox Metropolitan Church. Far from being dic-tated by celebratory reasons of conjunc-ture, the present work sensibly enriches the knowledge of ecclesiatical history of the Orthodox Romanians living in the mid-19th and second half of the 19th centu-ry.
