A Project of Scholars: The Anthology of Romanian Moralists

Abstract

This article has two main stakes. The first, to suggest a hypothesis on the genesis of the Anthology of Romanian Moralists among the other initiatives of Acad. Eugen Simion, as a project expected and pursued for a longer period of time. The second objective is to describe what are the main lines of the project started in 2021 and what are the preliminary data generated by the anthologies of texts collected within this project. The early conclusions point to the agglutination of a moralistic specificity, despite the diversity of the eras and currents in which the writers and their anthologized works appeared.
