Provocat la duel, T. Maiorescu, pe scena politică bucovineană
The study reconstructs an unknown episode in the life of T. Maiorescu concerning his challenge to a duel by Aurel Onciul. The context is the political life in Bucovina at the beginning of the 20th century, more precisely, the struggle between democrats and conservatives. Following a letter that Maiorescu sends to Eudoxiu (Doxuță) Hurmuzachi, which the latter publishes in Deșteptarea, Aurel Onciul feels aggrieved. As a consequence, Titu Maiorescu challenges him to a duel, and Eudoxiu Hurmuzachi sends him to court. The study also succinctly reconstructs both Titu Maiorescu’s physical and mental state at that time and the relations Titu Maiorescu had previously had with Bucovina.
