The Moldovan society during the Crimean War in the vision of French travelers and consuls
Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2012, Vol 18, Issue 1
Abstract
The new situation created after the defeat of the revolution of 1848 increased the interest and the curiosity of Europe for the Romanian territory. The number of foreign travelers continued to be high during the period 1848-1856. All these travelers and French consuls, being concerned to recover „the exotic oriental civilization”, crossed these principalities and bequeathed us important travel descriptions, including analysis of their reflections on the economic and political life.
