Mihail Moxa (Cyrillic: Михаил Мoѯа; also known as Moxalie, and originally named Vasile Moxa; after 1550 – before 1650) was a Wallachian historiographer, translator, and Orthodox monk. Associated with the Oltenia region (the western third of old Wallachia), he lived for much of his life at Bistrița Monastery; his career spanned a moment of deep political subjugation to the Ottoman Empire, to which he, as a historian, opposed an early version of Romanian nationalism. Moxa was one of the first authors to champion the usage of Romanian as a literary language, at a time when education (including his own) was done in Old Church Slavonic, which was still the Wallachian court language, or in Greek.
