Victor Crăsescu dating history

Details

Victor Crăsescu (Russian: Виктор Крэсеску) or Crăsescu-Basarabeanu, born Victor Crasiuc (Виктор Крысюк; 16 October 1849 or 1850 – 1917 or 1918), was an Imperial Russian-born Romanian physician, left-wing activist, and prose writer. He was originally from the Bessarabia Governorate, where he grew up as a rebel against Tsarist autocracy; enlisted at Chișinău Theological Seminary, which he greatly disliked, he took his scientific training at Odesa University. At this stage of his life, Crasiuc-Crăsescu embraced Russian anarchism and the Narodnik tradition, which resulted in repression by the authorities. He spent most of the 1870s in exile, visiting Switzerland and the United States. After a brief return to his native land upon the close of the decade, he was again in conflict with the Russian regime. He left a second and final time, taking with him his young son—known to Romanians as Sergiu Victor Cujbă.
