Petru Maior (Romanian pronunciation: [ˈpetru ˈmajor]; 1756 in Marosvásárhely (now Târgu Mureș, Romania) – 14 February 1821 in Buda) was a Romanian writer who is considered[1] one of the most influential personalities of the Age of Enlightenment in Transylvania (the Transylvanian School).
Petru Maior took a stand and responded, in 1812, by writing the "History of the Beginnings of the Romanians in Dacia" against all those who questioned the origin, character, and the becoming of his people.
[3] The Lexicon of Buda, a book published in 1825, included two texts by Petru Maior, Orthographia romana sive latino-valachica una cum clavi and Dialogu pentru inceputul linbei române, in which he introduced the letters ș for /ʃ/ and ț for /ts/, which have since been in use in the Romanian alphabet.
[4] Among the ideas vehiculated by him was that before the Council of Florence Romanians used the Latin alphabet to write.
