language">Russian</a>: Авксентий Дмитриевич Фрунзе, <a href="/wiki/Romanization_of_Russian" title="Romanization of Russian">romanized</a>: Avksenty Dmitryevich Frunze; 13 February 1859 – 9 June 1933), was a <a href="/wiki/Bessarabia" title="Bessarabia">Bessarabian</a>-born Romanian socialist militant and classical scholar, also noted as a schoolteacher, translator, and fiction writer. Originally a subject of the <a href="/wiki/Russian_Empire" title="Russian Empire">Russian Empire</a>, he studied at <a href="/wiki/Chi%C8%99in%C4%83u_Theological_Seminary" title="Chișinău Theological Seminary">Kishinev Theological Seminary</a>, where he showed promise as a reader and speaker of <a href="/wiki/Latin" title="Latin">Latin</a>; embracing <a href="/wiki/Romanian_nationalism" title="Romanian nationalism">Romanian nationalism</a> and rebelling against <a href="/wiki/Tsarist_autocracy" title="Tsarist autocracy">Tsarist autocracy</a>, he was ultimately expelled from the institution. Frunză probably graduated from another school or university before settling in the <a href="/wiki/Kingdom_of_Romania" title="Kingdom of Romania">Kingdom of Romania</a>. He joined efforts with other radical emigrants in smuggling books across the Russian border, and, while in <a href="/wiki/Northern_Dobruja" title="Northern Dobruja">Northern Dobruja</a>, set up his own agricultural co-operative. He identified as a <a href="/wiki/Marxism" title="Marxism">Marxist</a>, but remained an unusually radical one in the Romanian context, favoring "<a href="/wiki/Scientific_communism" title="Scientific communism">scientific communism</a>" and justifying peasant revolts, though in conjunction with nationalist ideals. Frunză was therefore close to the doyen of <a href="/wiki/Anarchism_in_Romania" title="Anarchism in Romania">Romanian anarchism</a>, <a href="/wiki/Zamfir_Arbore" title="Zamfir Arbore">Zamfir Arbore</a>, as well as to scholar <a href="/wiki/Bogdan_Petriceicu_Hasdeu" title="Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu">Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu</a>, a proponent of <a href="/wiki/Left-wing_nationalism" title="Left-wing nationalism">left-wing nationalism</a>. At the height of his conflict with the <a href="/wiki/National_Liberal_Party_(Romania,_1875)" title="National Liberal Party (Romania, 1875)">National Liberal</a> establishment in the 1900s, he was also an active member of the <a href="/wiki/Conservative_Party_(Romania,_1880%E2%80%931918)" title="Conservative Party (Romania, 1880–1918)">Conservative Party</a>. Frunză passed a state examination that entitled him to teach Latin in Romanian schools. He made his major career move in 1897, when he began working at <a href="/wiki/Costache_Negruzzi_National_College" title="Costache Negruzzi National College">Negruzzi Boarding School</a> of <a href="/wiki/Ia%C8%99i" title="Iași">Iași</a>—afterwards integrating fully within Iași's left-leaning elite. He was well-liked by his students, among whom were several who later achieved fame as writers. In addition to his pedagogical skill and his familiarity with the classics, he was admired for his skill in translating <a href="/wiki/Russian_literature" title="Russian literature">Russian literature</a>, which was a second profession for several decades of his life. He similarly turned to writing his own works of fiction, steeped in <a href="/wiki/Social_realism" title="Social realism">social realism</a> and well-reviewed by contemporary critics. As an affiliate of the <a href="/wiki/Via%C8%9Ba_Rom%C3%AEneasc%C4%83" class="mw-redirect" title="Viața Romînească">Viața Romînească</a> circle before and after World War I, Frunză antagonized public opinion through his <a href="/wiki/Germanophilia" class="mw-redirect" title="Germanophilia">Germanophilia</a>, identifying the <a href="/wiki/Central_Powers" title="Central Powers">Central Powers</a> as Bessarabia's would-be saviors; though he lived during the <a href="/wiki/Union_of_Bessarabia_with_Romania" title="Union of Bessarabia with Romania">union of Bessarabia with Romania</a>, he was jaded by the outcome. Always an eccentric man-about-town who enjoyed social drinking, he attracted suspicion for his political activities. He and his wife Zoe harbored militants of the <a href="/wiki/Socialist_Party_of_Romania" title="Socialist Party of Romania">Romanian Socialist</a> and <a href="/wiki/Romanian_Communist_Party" title="Romanian Communist Party">Communist Parties</a> in their home, supporting their activities. He lost his home during an unrelated legal battle, and moved to <a href="/wiki/Bucharest" title="Bucharest">Bucharest</a>, where he eventually died of <a href="/wiki/Angina" title="Angina">angina</a>. Many of his literary works were collected for print, but remained unpublished. <meta property="mw:PageProp/toc" /> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Biography">Biography</h2>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Axinte_Frunz%C4%83&action=edit&section=1" title="Edit section: Biography">edit</a>]</div> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Early_life_and_Romanian_arrival">Early life and Romanian arrival</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Axinte_Frunz%C4%83&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Early life and Romanian arrival">edit</a>]</div> The future activist hailed from free peasants (răzeși), with family roots planted in the former principality of <a href="/wiki/Moldavia" title="Moldavia">Moldavia</a>.<a href="#cite_note-cscazacu-1">[1]</a><a href="#cite_note-nour-2">[2]</a> He was born at <a href="/wiki/Scor%C8%9Beni,_Telene%C8%99ti" title="Scorțeni, Telenești">Scorțeni</a> on 13 February 1859,<a href="#cite_note-nsfiride-3">[3]</a><a href="#cite_note-Karețchi_&_Eșanu,_p._121-4">[4]</a> though some records had 1860;<a href="#cite_note-unan-5">[5]</a> the village was back then part of Russia's <a href="/wiki/Bessarabia_Governorate" title="Bessarabia Governorate">Bessarabia Governorate</a>, as organized since 1812.

According to Nour, Frunză visited (or planned to visit) the newly acquired region—but was overall jaded, since he believed that Romanian rule had made social injustice more permanent, and since Bessarabian revolutionaries were regarded by him as inauthentic.<a href="#cite_note-nour-2">[2]</a> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Final_years_and_death">Final years and death</h3>[<a href="/w/index.php?title=Axinte_Frunz%C4%83&action=edit&section=5" title="Edit section: Final years and death">edit</a>]</div> Frunză continued to reside in Iași, where he and his wife focused mostly on socialist agitation.

I. Mironescu">I. I. Mironescu</a>, as well as teachers Mihai Ștefănescu-Galați and Valentin Bude. He was ridiculed for these adventures, especially after one New Year's Eve when, unable to find his way out of Ștefănescu-Galați's yard, he went around in circles for hours on end, until he was finally rescued by his hosts.<a href="#cite_note-alrevelion-23">[23]</a> Frunză influenced Mironescu's progressive take on society during extensive conversations. In desperation at her husband's absence, Mironescu's wife once created a mock-tavern in her own home on Albineț Street, allowing them to see each other while she was still around. The room featured a bust of Frunză, done in plaster by Mironescu himself.<a href="#cite_note-57">[57]</a> Zoe still participated in the defense of radical causes, and, as a figure in the "Socialist Red Cross", offered assistance to workers arrested during the <a href="/wiki/1920_Romanian_general_strike" title="1920 Romanian general strike">general strike of 1920</a>. She and Axinte also offered more direct protection to trade unionists sought after by the Siguranța, whom they sheltered in their home.<a href="#cite_note-58">[58]</a> Zoe joined the <a href="/wiki/Romanian_Communist_Party" title="Romanian Communist Party">Romanian Communist Party</a> (PCR or PCdR) on its creation in 1920, was elected on its regional committee for <a href="/wiki/Western_Moldavia" title="Western Moldavia">Western Moldavia</a> in 1922, and remained affiliated with it even after the group as a whole was outlawed in 1924.<a href="#cite_note-59">[59]</a> The Sărăriei house continued to be used as a temporary and secretive base by the local communists, reportedly including <a href="/wiki/Lucre%C8%9Biu_P%C4%83tr%C4%83%C8%99canu" title="Lucrețiu Pătrășcanu">Lucrețiu Pătrășcanu</a>.<a href="#cite_note-lkaxinte-18">[18]</a> According to Sevastos, Axinte personally agreed to shelter a communist fugitive in the attic, and obtained additional support for him from a local lawyer, Albert Schreiber.<a href="#cite_note-60">[60]</a> Axinte Frunză was forced into retirement from teaching in April 1926,<a href="#cite_note-61">[61]</a> but was called back during July<a href="#cite_note-62">[62]</a> and allowed to continue until 1932.<a href="#cite_note-gammurit-11">[11]</a> In mid-1929, he was working on a translation of stories by Chekhov, for which he had signed a contract with <a href="/wiki/Ramuri" title="Ramuri">Ramuri</a> of <a href="/wiki/Craiova" title="Craiova">Craiova</a>.<a href="#cite_note-63">[63]</a> He was still engaged with this project in early 1931, while also completing a version of <a href="/wiki/Maxim_Gorky" title="Maxim Gorky">Maxim Gorky</a>'s <a href="/wiki/Autobiographies_of_Maxim_Gorky" title="Autobiographies of Maxim Gorky">My Childhood</a>, which he had purified of Gorky's own additions (while also restoring chapters not found in other translations); he complained to his editor, Ion Simionescu, about how "aggressive capitalism" had undermined his effort.<a href="#cite_note-lkaxinte-18">[18]</a> He was no longer directly involved in politics. Botez recalls seeing him and Mironescu as bystanders at political rallies held by either the National Liberals or their <a href="/wiki/National_Peasants%27_Party" title="National Peasants' Party">National Peasantist</a> rivals. They poked fun at both camps, suggesting that they were equally right to accuse each other of corruption.<a href="#cite_note-64">[64]</a> Frunză began reconnecting with the Bessarabian literary milieu, which was by then shaped by localists such as <a href="/wiki/Nicolai_Costenco" title="Nicolai Costenco">Nicolai Costenco</a>, who were virulently critical of Greater Romanian centralism. In January 1932, he was announced as a would-be collaborator for Costenco's new literary magazine, <a href="/wiki/Via%C8%9Ba_Basarabiei" title="Viața Basarabiei">Viața Basarabiei</a>.<a href="#cite_note-65">[65]</a> Nour reports that Frunză was by then skeptical about <a href="/wiki/Leninism" title="Leninism">Leninism</a> and the <a href="/wiki/Soviet_Union" title="Soviet Union">Soviet Union</a>, arguing that he ought to have been there to evaluate the claims made in <a href="/wiki/Soviet_propaganda" class="mw-redirect" title="Soviet propaganda">Soviet propaganda</a>.
