Summary[edit]

Description
English: Congresul Preoților ("Priests' Congress"), anticlerical cartoon-lithograph in Calendarul Cocoşului Roşu almanac, Brașov, Transylvania (Austria-Hungary). Depicting Romanian Orthodox priests binge drinking, soliciting prostitutes and fighting with civilians at the Klaus Coffee House. The almanac was put out by the German-speaking (Saxon) editors Ioan and Henric Gött, but had a Romanian readership.
According to Oprescu (p. 152): [Autorul este] H. F. care nu pare să fie Român. Și, cum unele desene[le lui] sunt îndreptate direct contra Sașilor, nu cred să fie nici Sas. [...] Congresul Preoților este luată evident din viața Românilor (Café Klaus). Glumeață, dar cam din topor. Surpinzătoare prin spiritul său anticlerical, la Ardeleni, la care preoții s'au bucurat totdeauna de un deosebit respect ("[The author is a] H. F. who does not appear to be a Romanian. And, since some of [his] drawings are directly aimed at the Saxons, I don't believe he is a Saxon either. [...] The Priests' Congress borrows directly from the life of the Romanians (Klaus Coffee House). Funny, but a tad crude. Surprising with its anticlerical spirit, among the Transylvanians, who have always held priests in the highest esteem").
