copied a list of placenames in Bukovina from an old austrian census. the "german" ones are romanian in a germano-polish (with ż!) orthography. with some interesting conventions (like the endings -outz and -estie for rom. -ăuți -ești, ukr. -івці)

Ein Land, das es nicht gibt – Trip nach Transnistrien
29.07.2024
Tag 4
Wieder weckt mich der Hahn. Das ist typisch für Zeltplätze auf dem Dorf. Nach dem Frühstück breche ich auf und besuche als erstes das Kloster im Ort, direkt an der ukrainischen Grenze. Auf dem Gelände des Peri-Klosters befindet sich angeblich die höchste Stabkirche Europas, mit einer Höhe von 75 Metern.
Ob dieser Superlativ stimmt, weiß ich nicht, aber Holzkunst wird hier im Kreis Maramureș definitiv groß geschrieben.
Überall stehen kunstvoll verzierte Torbögen, Holzhäuser und geschnitzte Kruzifixe.
Ich fahre die Straße 18 entlang, immer Richtung Südosten. Rechts erheben sich die Gipfel der Karpaten, über allen thront der 2303 Meter hohe Pietros.
Von Borsa aus überquere ich den Prisloppass, der eine wunderschöne Aussicht bietet.
Es ist den ganzen Tag recht kühl, maximal 24°C, was im Vergleich zu den letzten Tagen wenig ist. Besonders in den dichten Nadelwäldern ist es angenehm und alles riecht intensiv nach Bäumen.
Holz wird in großem Maße exportiert, was diverse Umweltschützer sehr kritisch sehen. Einiges läuft nicht wirklich gut nachvollziehbar: In fast jedem größeren Ort gibt es mittlerweile die „Krebsgeschwüre“ Lidl, Tacco, Kik – große Handelsketten verdrängen , nicht erst seit gestern, die lokalen Märkte. Gemüse gibt es dort aus Spanien und Italien, während die rumänische Landwirtschaft darbt. Aus verschiedenen Gründen. Eine seltsame Entwicklung.
Außerdem baut die NATO bzw. die USA in Rumänien den größten Stützpunkt der Nato in Europa, der vermutlich sogar Ramstein in den Hintergrund rücken lässt. Säbelrasseln…
Ich fahre eine weitere Strecke durch das Gebirge, entlang der Bistritz nach Holda, und von dort aus nach Gura Humora in der Bukovina, früher Teil des Königreichs Moldau, später auch mal österreichisch, nun rumänisch. Es gab Zeiten, da waren die Bukovinadeutschen und die Bukovinajuden hier prägend, das ist aber seit dem Ende des Zweiten Weltkriegs vorbei.

Hier übernachte ich und überlege, wie es morgen weitergehen soll.

I just noticed something: in Johnathan’s travels up to this point, every mode of transport has been late to receive him (e.g, the train leaving Buda-Pesth, the coach leaving to Bukovina).
It’s almost like a sign from the universe itself: trying to stall him from going to the Count’s castle. Telling him that this is not a good idea. And despite his gut telling him the same thing, he knows he has to go because of his work.
But in today’s entry, the carriage that was supposed to drop Johnathan off at the Burgo Pass, arrived early. The drivers and the passengers made it a point specifically to arrive earlier than the Count.
I think it’s because they know the Count would have been waiting if they arrived later. They tried to save Johnathan by attempting to be one step ahead of the Count, knowing what will happen if they let Johnathan go. Unfortunately, as the Count said himself: ���I know too much and my horses are swift.”
Any attempts against the Count are futile, but these people tried anyways in the hope that they could prevent the horrors to come upon a clueless foreigner who doesn’t know what’s about to happen.
They may not have the strength to fight back against the Count. But they continue to attempt preventing the inevitable, not matter how futile it will be. And if all else, they provide protection against the evils that Johnathan will have to face alone.
And I think that is utterly beautiful and shows the compassion of humanity in the face of such horrors.
#I just love all the villagers so much#they deserve to be recognized for their efforts in protecting our dear friend Johnathan#dracula#dracula daily#re: dracula#re dracula

The way the coach driver pushed his horses to the limit, not out of fear for himself or his passengers in passing through the Borgo Pass, but out of fear for Jonathan. The way he believed if only he could arrive faster to Jonathan’s destination, faster than the evil meant to whisk him away, maybe, just maybe, he would be spared. Yes, if he did this, Jonathan would miss his appointment with the Count and travel to Bukovina with the rest of them, away from the horrors lurking in the mountains. How much fear, pity, and sadness the driver must have felt leaving Jonathan in the dark of the pass, alone with his fate.
