==Culture== [[File:George_Cosbuc_-_Foto02.jpg|thumb|upright=0.7|right|[[George Coșbuc]], Romanian poet, translator, teacher, and journalist, best known for his verses describing, praising and eulogizing rural life]] The culture of Transylvania is complex because of its varied history and longstanding multiculturalism, which has incorporated significant Hungarian (see [[Hungarians in Romania]]) and German (see [[Germans of Romania]]) influences.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.itcnet.ro/folk_festival/culture.htm |title=Cultura |date=2007-12-31 |access-date=2016-05-08 |url-status=unfit |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071231125142/http://www.itcnet.ro/folk_festival/culture.htm |archive-date=December 31, 2007 }}</ref> The region was the birthplace of the [[Transylvanian School]] movement, its members, namely [[Samuil Micu-Klein]], [[Petru Maior]], and [[Gheorghe Șincai]], being responsible for the early version of [[Romanian alphabet]].<ref>[https://www.limbaromana.md/index.php?go=articole&n=3889 N. Felecan - Considerations on the First Books of Romanian Grammar]</ref> With regard to architecture, the Transylvanian [[Gothic style]] is preserved to this day in monuments such as the [[Biserica Neagră|Black Church]] in [[Brașov]] (14th and 15th centuries) and a number of other [[cathedrals]], as well as the [[Bran Castle]] in [[Brașov County]] (14th century), and the [[Hunyad Castle]] in [[Hunedoara]] (15th century). Notable writers such as [[Emil Cioran]], [[Lucian Blaga]], [[George Coșbuc]], [[Ioan Slavici]], [[Octavian Goga]], [[Liviu Rebreanu]], [[Endre Ady]], [[Elie Wiesel]], [[Elek Benedek]] and [[Károly Kós]] were born in Transylvania. Liviu Rebreanu wrote the novel ''Ion'', which introduces the reader to a depiction of the life of Romanian peasants and intellectuals of Transylvania at the turn of the 20th century. Károly Kós was one of the most important writers supporting the movement of [[Transylvanianism]].
