150 years of teaching Romanian at Inalco: History, practice(s), pathways

This year, Inalco's Romanian Studies program celebrates 150 years since the introduction of the first Romanian language course at the École spéciale des Langues Orientales vivantes, in November 1875. The event is organized with the support of CREE and the IRN CNRS "Langues d'héritage" project, led by the SFL laboratory at Université Paris 8, and the Romanian Embassy in France.
