Abstract:
Oradean lawyer Pavel Maliţa was a personality of the local elite who was involved in the process of culturalization and consolidation of Romanianism on the
western border of interwar Romania. He stood out, in particular, by organizing
numerous cultural-religious meetings in Oradea and Bihor. His words sought to
strengthen in the spirit of the people the attachment to the church and the nation.
Elected vice-president of the Association “Oastea Domnului” - Oradea branch, he was
the main organizer of several meetings in the communes of Bihor County. Needy
people have benefited from his charitable projects in Oradea. Dispersal of prints represented another mean of cultural-national propaganda for the interwar times, especially in the villages of Bihor, where, gradually, the printed word imposed itself in
the life of the rural community. As a result, the lawyer tried to spread as many books,
brochures and newspapers as possible.
