856 Maria ParizaRomanization of the Thrachian people, about their medieval history andoffers information about Moscople during the XVIII th Century. The booksends with a two page list which contains hundreds of names who are infavour of publishing the book. The book is of great importance not only forthe ideas that it contains but also for the fact that is was quite widespread.The ones enumerated in the subscription list bought by themselves 637copies of the book, and some of these copies made it to Macedonia.The renovation movement that influenced all Romanians was alsoencouraged by the new literary products of Romanians from Vienna. In 1813appears in Viena the first Aromanian or macedo-vlachian grammar writtenby Mihail G. Boiagi in Greek and German. The examples and illustrationsfrom the book are in Aromanian language written in Latin alphabet. 25 Hiswork is a response to Neofit Duca and other Greek intellectuals who wantedto make the Greek language the official language of orthodox nations. Thisexplains the fact why the Greek Patriach would call down curses on theauthor and everyone who would believe “this heretic who stands againstthe language in which God speaks”, and was for the destruction of thebook.Later on, his fellow colleagues, such as D. Bolintineanu would call thisintellectual contribution “A fine monument of the Romanians that descentfrom Aurelian” and linguist Theodor Capidan would say that it is “the mostcomplete work that could have been made during that period”. 26From the Macedonian colony in Budapest, Zaharia Carcalechi 27 and hiscontributor, Emanuil Gojdu, will stand out and will play an important in theannals of the Romanian culture. Both of them will be known for their desireto strengthen the bonds between Romanians all over the world, the firstone through his craftsmanship and the second one through his patronageof culture.25M.
