Andrei Mureșanu
Andrei Mureşanu (born November 16, 1816 in Bistritz , Transylvania, † October 12, 1863 in Kronstadt or Sibiu ) was a Romanian poet and revolutionary.
Life
From 1825 he attended the grammar school of the Piarist Order in Bistrița and from 1832 studied philosophy and theology in Blaj with Timotei Cipariu and George Bariț . In 1838 he began as a professor in Kronstadt. From 1839 he published articles and poems in Barițs newspaper Foaie pentru minte, inimă și literatură (notes for the mind, heart and literature). Mureșanu has been the translator of numerous German-speaking authors such as Friedrich Schiller , Christoph Martin Wieland , Gottfried August Bürger and Jean Paul .
He was also politically active. He did not represent so much liberal as national views. In 1848 he took part in the revolution. He was a delegate of the city of Brașov at the great people's assembly in Blaj in May 1848. During this time he wrote the poem Deșteaptă-te, române! which immediately became popular. From 1989 the poem formed the text of the Romanian national anthem.
In 1848/49 he published again with Bariț. In the spring he fled to Ploiesti and shortly afterwards to Bukovina . After the revolution he worked as a translator in Sibiu and published in the Telegraful novel . In 1862 he published an anthology of his poems.
