Nicolae Chiriac Quintescu (February 21, 1841–August 12, 1913) was a Wallachian, later Romanian philologist, essayist and translator. He was born in Craiova; his father seems to have been Chiriac Chintescu, who farmed a nearby plot of land given to him on lease. Chiriac appears in a petition of 1831 and was on the city council in 1848. Nicolae later described himself as a "son of Oltenia" who grew up "in the fortifying atmosphere.... in which Ioan Maiorescu had worked". He graduated from Saint Sava College in Bucharest,[1] and in 1861 left for Germany.[1] There, he took a degree in classical philology from Bonn University and, in 1867, a doctorate in literature from the University of Berlin. The same year, after returning home, he became a professor of classical philology at the University of Iași; in 1881, he transferred to the University of Bucharest,[1] retiring from the post in 1902.[1] He became director of the capital city's higher normal school in 1898,[1] serving for a brief period of time.[1] While in Iași, Quintescu belonged to Junimea society,[1] contributing to its Convorbiri Literare journal,[1] but came into conflict with other members due to disagreements over philology.[1] Elected a titular member of the Romanian Academy in 1877,[2] he served as secretary of its literary section.[1] Within the Academy, he belonged to a committee tasked with writing a dictionary, and to another that met in 1903 to standardize spelling norms.[1] His activity as a writer began when Quintescu wrote unpublished poems as a young man; he later focused on literary commentary from a comparatist perspective. He authored travel accounts, also translating Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Egmont and Friedrich Schiller's Die Huldigung der Künste.[3] Notes1. ^1 2 3 4 {{ro icon}} "Quintescu, Nicolae Chiriac", at the Alexandru and Aristia Aman County Library {{authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Quintescu, Nicolae}}2. ^{{ro icon}} Membrii Academiei Române din 1866 până în prezent at the Romanian Academy site 3. ^1 2 3 4 5 6 Aurel Sasu (ed.), Dicționarul biografic al literaturii române, vol.
