Abstract:
During 1918-1940, in Bessarabia, the public institutions, existing and newly created, promoted a policy of integrating Bessarabia culture into the Romanian one. Their work had a strong impact on the population of Bessarabia, contributing to the enlightenment and reanimation of the Romanian spirit on this territory.
The protection of historical monuments, boyars‟ mansions and religious buildings of great historical and artistic value from Bessarabia, was a matter of great need for both the Russian Empire in 1812-1918 as the Romanian State during 1918-1944. For this purpose, the cultural institutions were oriented to highlight the historical and cultural relics that have been preserved on the territory between the Prut and Nistru, regardless of the weather. In Bessarabia there were several cultural institutions, which enjoyed a wide influence among citizens. These include the Society of Fine Arts, cultural centers, libraries, the Central Library, the `Bessarabia Life` magazine, churches and monasteries, the Archdiocese and then Metropolitan Church of Bessarabia, workshops cutlery, societies, fraternities, museums church and monastery, the National Museum of Natural History, the Historical Monuments Commission, the Archives of the Bessarabia Governor, the Historical - Archaeological Society Church of Bessarabia etc.
In Bessarabia the protection of historical monuments, boyars‟ mansions and religious buildings of great historical and artistic value is a matter of great need in the first decades of the nineteenth century, governed by the Russian Empire law (1812-1918) and Romania
(1918-1944). The Great Union has opened new horizons and spiritual life, with an unprecedented development in the interwar period. The cultural unity existed long ago in the the Romanian territory, which did not exclude some features from one province to another,
from one area to another, features that did not alter its basic unity.
The cultural factor has acquired special sizes within the state policy. Many prominent intellectuals held high positions as most politicians had a serious training in various specialties of science and culture. Beyond searches, accomplishments and failures, leading
cultural exponents played an active role, much greater than before, in the life of the state, and the state, through its various levers, supported material and moral the scientific, technical, and artistic creation.
It came after 1918 in a new stage, where the original research takes on a special scale with the results of national and universal value. We are seeing a modernization of teaching and research in close connection with the scientific world from abroad. Significant scientific
schools, artistic literary currents have been formed alongside some departments, laboratories, institutes, resorts, circles, prestigious journals in different areas of the country, headed by the great men of culture and art pioneers in areas of the greatest importance.
