The Little Book of Romanian Wisdom (English and Romanian Edition)
Used Book in Good Condition
Romania. For most of the world, the name usually conjures up images of Dracula, Olympic gymnastics legend Nadia Comaneci--and not much else. Yet this country with a rich history stretching back thousands of years contains countless wonders and hidden gems, producing many people who've made a major impact on our world.
Their Wisdom has remained hidden behind the barrier of a language spoken by less than 25 million people worldwide.Â
All selections within this book are from people born in Romania, including: Hollywood legends Edward G. Robinson, Bela Lugosi (the original Dracula), and Johnny Weissmuller (the original Tarzan); Elie Weisel, Nobel Prize-winning author; Olympic gold medal gymnast Nadia Comaneci;Â Renowned sculptor Constantin Brancusi to the lesser-known outside Romania, such as poet Mihai Eminescu (whose fame it's said would have rivaled Shakespeare, had Eminescu written in English).
This Book will give you a meaningful glimpse into the heart and soul of Romania and its people--both the world-famous and everyday citizens.
