Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HAN-HEG
HASDEU, or HAJDEU, BOGDAN PETRICEICU (18361907) , Rumanian philologist, was born at Khotin in
Bessarabia
  in 1836, and studied at the university of Kharkov. In 1858 he first settled in
Jassy
  as professor of the high school and librarian. He may be considered as the
pioneer
  in many branches of Rumanian philology and history. At
Jassy
  he started his Archiva historica a Romaniei (18651867), in which a large number of old documents in Slavonic and Rumanian were published for the first time. In 187o he inaugurated Columna lui Traian, the best philological
review
  of the time in Rumania. In his Cuvente den Bibtrdni (2 vols., 18781881) he was the first to contribute to the history of apocryphal literature in Rumania. His Historia crilica a Romanilor (1815), though incomplete, marks the beginning of
critical
  investigation into the history of Rumania. Hasdeu edited the ancient Psalter of Coresi of 1577 (Psaltirea lui Coresi, 1881). His Etymologicum magnum Romaniae (1886, &c.) is the beginning of an encyclopaedic dictionary of the Rumanian language, though never finished
beyond the
letter
  B. In 1876 he was appointed director of the state archives in
Bucharest
  and in 1878 professor of philology at tile university of
Bucharest
 . His works, which include one drama, Rasvon ci Vidra,
bear
  the impress of
great
  originality of thought, and the author is often carried away by his profound erudition and vast imagination. Hasdeu was a keen politician. After the death of his only child Julia in 1888 he became a mystic and a strong believer in spiritism. He died at Campina on the 7th of September 1907. (M. G.)
