Abstract

One century and a half since the foundation of the ASTRA Association (1861-2011)

This paper presents in a summarized form the evolution of the ASTRA Association during its existence of over 150 years (1861-2011). The author highlights the historical and social conditions under which the ASTRA Association was founded, the struggles the generation of 1848 undertook in order to create Association, the achievements and the institutions founded by ASTRA during its existence, the contributions of the ASTRA members to the Great Union from 1918. The author also observes the constant struggle of the ASTRA members to protect the language, the faith and the inalienable rights of Romanians in Transylvania; he also emphasizes the role of culture in their emancipation as one of the civilized nations of Europe. Then he remarks the role of the General Assemblies, both at central and departmental level, in achieving and maintaining the solidarity of all Romanians.
Keywords: Romanian history, XIXth century, Transylvania, ASTRA Association, national and cultural emancipation
