Popis: Moise Nicoara was one of the most important fighters for the rights of Romanian Orthodox inhabitants of Transylvania and Banat during Austrian domination. After the Treaty of Carlovitz, 1699 and the Treaty of Passarovitz, 1718, the Romanian Orthodox Church from Transylvania and Banat was placed under the jurisdiction of Serbian Orthodox Mitropoly with the residence in Carlovitz. It is not considered a random decision, though. Moise Nicoara was born in Gyula, today in Hungary, in 1784. He has claimed from the Austrian authorities a Romanian Orthodox Bishop in Arad instead of the Serbian one since 1815. His efforts were successful only in 1829 when the first Romanian bishop was elected, but unfortunately Moise Nicoara had already sought asylum in Wallachia at that time. His personality has been under the attention of historians and men of culture. The article is a brief overview of how his life and activity were presented by the Romanian historiography.
