Cultural Identities in the Books Donated by the Catholic Bishop Anton Sigismund Stoica of Szala (1699-1770)

As extension to a work from 1974 – O listă cu cărţi de la episcopul Anton Sigismund Stoica de Szala (1699-1770) / A List of Books study attempts to investigate and establish various enlightened cultural identities from from Anton Sigismund Stoica of Szala (1699-1770), in “Apulum”, XII, 1974, p. 329-359, the present manuscript XI 271, preserved at the National Library of Romania, Batthyaneum Branch, Alba Iulia, entitled Cathalogus Librorum ab Excellentissimo Illustrissimo ac Reverendissio Domino Piae Memoriae SIGISMUNDO ANTONIO SZTOJKA L[ibero] B[arone] de Szala Antiquo Episcopo Transyl[vaniae] ultima voluntate Seminario Ep[isco]pali Albensi Incarnate Sapientiae Legatorum Ordine Alphabetico digestus. The manuscript includes a list of books donated by the Bishop for the Seminarium Incarnate Sapientiae of Alba Iulia, an institution set up by the Baron of Szala. Starting the investigation from the items of information provided by Cathalogus Librorum and few books bearing the donor’s signature found in the Library Fund of Alba Iulia, the author of the present study attempts to detect several cultural identities typical for the Age of Enlightenment. If one takes into account the Bishop’s life, activity and managerial work between 1749 and 1759, mention should be made about his constant interest in libri theologici, libri philosophici, libri historici, libri juridici, etc. This kind of cultural identities emerge from the identification and interpretation of several titles significant for the bookish horizon typical for a Catholic prelate of the Transylvanian Principality in the Age of Enlightenment.
Keywords: Age of Enlightenment, Alba Iulia, Catholic Bishop, book donation, bookish horizon, cultural encyclopedism
