Excursia de 8 Martie (1)

Doua zile, 7 si 8 martie, le-am petrecut intr-o frumoasa excursie pe ruta Brasov, Fagaras, Sambata de sus, Rm. Valcea, Ocnele Mari. Sambata 7 martie s-a anuntat o zi ploioasa, dar dupa ce am ajuns in Brasov a iesit soarele.

La Brasov am vizitat un loc memorabil, prima scoala romaneasca din Scheii Brasovului, zidita in anul 1495 si recladita in 1760. Aceasta scoala a fost in decursul timpului un focar de cultura. Aici, poate fi vazuta prima sala de clasa "Anton Pann", sala "Diaconul Coresi", "Carturarii brasoveni", un complex muzeal care organizeaza diferite expozitii tematice. 

In scoala din Schei, intre 1556-1588, au fost tiparite primele carti in limba romana de catre diaconul Coresi si colaboratorii sai, la o tiparnita care poate fi vazuta si astazi. Cele aproximativ 40 de titluri de carte, tiparite in sute de exemplare, s-au raspandit in toate tinuturile romanesti, consfiintind unitatea spirituala a romanilor. Ghidul nostru in aceasta vizita a fost prof. Vasile Oltean care se ingrijeste de acest monument istoric. Domnia sa este o sursa inepuizabila de informatii despre Scoala din Schei, este cel care a adunat cu grija materialul de mare valoare istorica si artistica de aici si a scris nenumarate carti despre toate aceste valori istorice.

Two days 7 and 8 March, I was in a beautiful trip on the route Brasov, Fagaras, Sambata de sus, Rm. Valcea, Ocnele Mari. Saturday March 7 was announced a rainy day, but after I arrived in Brasov sun came out.In Brasov we visited the memorable first Romanian school of Schei, built in 1495 and rebuilt in 1760. This school was a hotbed of culture over time. Here can be seen the first classroom "Anton Pann", room "Deacon Coresi" and  "Scholars from Brasov", a museum complex which organizes various exhibitions.In the  school of Schei, between 1556-1588, were printed the first books in Romanian, by Coresi deacon and his collaborators at a printing press which can be seen today. The approximately 40 books, printed in hundred copies were spread in all Romanian lands, sealed the spiritual unity of the Romans. Our guide on this visit was prof. Vasile Oltean that takes care of this monument. He is an inexhaustible source of information about the School of Schei, who carefully collected the material of historical and artistic value and wrote many books about all these historical values.
