Neofit Scriban-Unionist Patriot
Abstract
Neofit Scriban was one of the most outstanding personalities of the 19th century Romanian clergy.Both as a priest and a teacher, he shared his knowledge and faith with everyone who wanted to
listen to him. But his activity and work went beyond the Church walls. He was a patriot who strongly believed in the benefits of the union of the two Romanian Provinces. This is why he focused his energy in helping to accomplish this Romanians` ideal. He was an active member of the National Assembly and he fulfilled his task with enthusiasm and responsibility. His talent as an orator can be noticed in the speeches he wrote on different religious and political occasions. Appreciated by many
people and contested by others, Neofit Scriban chose to live the last part of his life discretely and far from the tumults of the world, in his native village.
