The author investigates, from the standpoint of diplomatic and international history, a question which confronted and divided the Great Powers of Europe during the years 1855-9, namely, whether the principalities of Moldovia and Wallachia should be politically united. His attention has centred on the conflicting policies of the Powers, whose action was to determine the early destinies of Rumania, and upon the reaction of the question upon their interrelations. The work is based on numerous Foreign Office MSS, and was first published in 1929.

Long description: The life (in fact the lives) of Vlad III „the Impaller“ or „Dracula“ is a Rorschach test. Everybody sees what they want to see in the “documentary stains”. And these “stains” are expanding. Based on research in the archives and libraries of Budapest, Dubrovnik, Genoa, Mantua, Milan, Modena, Munich, Rome, Venice and Vienna, the book focuses on the conflictive medieval, and modern images created by the clash between the classical pictures of Vlad and the still preserved coeval sources. Biographical note: Alexandru Simon is Research Professor at the Centre for Transylvanian Studies of the Romanian Academy in Cluj-Napoca. His recent publications include: „Valachorum regulus“ (2017), „Re de Dacia“ (2018, with Ioan-Aurel Pop), and as co-editor „Reform and Renewal in Medieval East and Central Europe (2019, with Suzana Miljan and Éva B. Halász).
