Vasile Conta

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Vasile Conta (November 15, 1845April 21, 1882) was a Romanian philosopher, poet, and politician.

He was born in Ghindăoani, a village in Bălţăteşti commune, Neamţ County.

The Armenian Octav Minar, an editor of Conta's works, pretended with no evidence that Conta was of Armenian ancestry. This thesis was infirmed by several scholars and by Ana Conta-Kernbach, the philosopher's sister.[citation needed]

He died in Bucharest.
