Did the financial crisis bring any changes in the monetary policy preferences of Romania?
The turbulence in global financial markets presents a serious challenge to the stability of the monetary policy trilemma configuration. The trilemma states that a country may simultaneously choose only two of the following three policy goals: monetary policy independence, exchange rate stability, and financial integration. In order to analyse if the financial crisis brought changes in Romania’s monetary policy preference, we have constructed indexes that measure the trilemma policy goals individually in the period between 2005 and 2012. Using these indices, we have shown that there are significant differences between the means of monetary independence and exchange rate stability indices in the pre- and post-crisis periods

Du désordre de la vie de tous les jours à l’immortalité de l’âme, par la voie des vertus
Following the loss of his political position in the 50s BC and the tragedy in his private life, the death of his daughter, Cicero turns to the genre of the consolatio, connecting the personal hardships with experiencing the final days of the republic, the loss of libertas and dignitas. The analysis focuses on the plan of the fanum to commemorate Tullia, which is mostly regarded by researchers as displeasing and exhibitionist even in the eyes of contemporaneous orators. However, the letters suggest otherwise. Extending the virtus shown in the interest of the community and the concept of post-mortem honour acknowledging it also to women, and connecting it to the notions of humanitas and oikeiósis, Cicero argues for the apotheosis of Tullia on the basis of moral philosophical considerations. When it becomes evident that the realisation of the plan would harm Caesar’s financial and political interests, the letters designate the killing of the dictator obstructing the ideal functioning of the civitas as a communal task for the sake of preserving the sancta societas
“Pannonia terra creat, tumulat italia tellus”
The role of Pannonian soldiers in the guards is traceable from the 2nd century while their number and significance had grown considerably both in the units of praetoriani and equites singulares from the rule of Septimius Severus. Inscriptional sources mention that from time to time their families, wives and kin moved to Rome with the guardsmen. On their gravestone reliefs, one can find themes both from their homelands, traditions and from new Roman erudition. The decades spent serving the Emperor in Rome could mean social advancement, gaining fortune and recognition while the best ones could become military officers. After retiring from service, they could play an important role in the life of the province and in the Romanization of Pannonia as well
Crimen maiestatis and the poena legis during the Principate
It has been argued that during the reign of Roman emperors the crime of lèse-majesté was punishable by death, and the arbitrariness of its prosecution has been considered one of the negative aspects of this era. However, the debate on the origin, date and content of the law, which should have formed the frame for all trials, the lex Iulia maiestatis, has not been sufficiently concluded. The paper will attempt to prove that it was the aquae et ignis interdictio, i.e. non-voluntary exile, not death, that remained the poena legis during the Principate; death could also be inflicted, but not as the legal penalty. The possibilities of the cognitio extra ordinem, which spread from the beginning of the Principate, and the role of the Senate will be duly considered
Oper spielen — Opern schaffen Entstehungs- und Aufführungsgeschichte der ersten ungarischen Operntragödie
The paper investigates the genesis as well as the performance history of Ferenc Erkel’s first opera. Bátori Mária, the first Hungarian tragic national opera was premiered on 8 August 1840 at the Hungarian Theatre in Pest. In it, Erkel adapted the model of Italo-French romantic opera. Further representations of Bátori Mária spanned over the following two decades. Based on contemporary critical reviews, the author offers a reconstruction of the performances, traces the soloists’ artistic carreer, and highlights the difficult process of professionalization of Hungarian opera playing
Die erste ungarische Operntragödie: Ferenc Erkels Bátori Mária. Quellen und Fassungen
The paper examines the primary musical and textual sources of Ferenc Erkel’s first opera, Bátori Mária. The author comes to the conclusion which is new in the Erkel literature, namely that the composer who was working under pressure of time in the weeks immediately preceding the premiere scheduled for 8 August 1840, availed himself of the help of József Szerdahelyi, a fellow-composer at the Hungarian National Theatre who collaborated in the orchestration of Act 2. Even so, Erkel considered the version presented at the first night as far from finished. He felt compelled to withdraw the opera, and to offer it again to the audiences with substantial emendations in January 1841. Modifications and additions at later stages of the twenty years long performance history of the opera are also analyzed
