Ateneul român vs. Atheneul român

edit

Beginning in 1861, he was publishing the Iaşi-based magazine Atheneul Român. A pro-liberal venue, it was noted for reacting against Urechia's former associate Alecsandri over the latter's conservative views. The Atheneul Român society was the nucleus of a country-wide cultural movement, which Urechia claimed was instrumental in establishing both the Romanian Academy (founded 1866) and the Romanian Athenaeum (founded 1888).

There is a confusion between Ateneul român, Iaşi based magazine, which appeared between September 15th, 1860 and December 1861, and Atheneul român from Bucharest, coordinated by C. Esarcu, which appeared between June 1st, 1866 and August 1869, and around the latest was founded the Atheneul Român Society. All the best, --Silenzio76 (talk) 21:48, 26 December 2012 (UTC)Reply
