  • Subiect: The Vicars Forane from the Metropolitan Province of Alba-Iulia and Făgăraş (1853-1918): an important segment of Romanian Ecclesiastical Elite A distinct segment of the superior ecclesiastical elite of the Romanian Greek-Catholic Church consisted of the vicars forane. In the ecclesiastical province of Alba Iulia and Făgăraş there were included five vicariates forane, three of which had been founded in 1786: Făgăraş, Haţeg and Năsăud, while that of Silvania had been established in 1809 and that of Marmaţia, in 1860. The institution of the vicariate forane was implemented in the Romanian Greek-Catholic Church by Bishop Ioan Bob. What should be noted is that the origins of this institution go way back into the Middle Ages and even further back in history, to the period of the Primary Christian Church. There are historiographical opinions according to which the roots of the vicariate forane date back to the institution of chorepiscopate. The first vicariates forane were established in the Archdiocese of Milan, and the institution proved its efficiency to such an extent that it was quickly adopted in other Italian dioceses, as well as in Spain. The vicariate forane, therefore, took the place of the deanery or the archdeaconry in a part of Catholic Europe, but in parallel with this institution, the Roman Catholic Church also preserved the archdeaconry and, as its subordinate ecclesiastical entities, the deaneries or vice-archdeaconries, which are known as archpresbyteriates in the Romanian Greek-Catholic Church. O case-study about the vicars forane of Făgăraş.
