Nicolae Iorga: Romania's Historian Prime Minister
Om avsnittet
In this episode, Lucas and Luna explore the life and legacy of Nicolae Iorga, Romania's most prolific historian and a short-lived prime minister. They discuss his monumental scholarly output—over 1,000 volumes—his role in shaping Romanian national identity through works like 'The History of the Romanian People,' his controversial tenure as prime minister in 1931-32 during the Great Depression, and his fatal opposition to the Iron Guard. The episode covers Iorga's assassination in 1940 by the Iron Guard, his influence on interwar culture, and his complex relationship with King Carol II. It also touches on his founding of the Democratic Nationalist Party and his vision of a 'Greater Romania' rooted in history.
