- Abstract
The personality of the Orthodox priest Pompiliu Piso (1886–1944) is less known in specialized literature. A native from Hunedoara county, he began his ecclesiastical career in the village of Cărpiniș near Abrud. As the parish priest of this village, he participated as a delegate with credentials at the Great Union from December 1st, 1918. In the interwar period, Pompiliu Piso became protopope of Zarand. In parallel, he also got involved in political life, oscillating between the People’s Party and the National Liberal Party. The distinguished cleric was a member of the Romanian Parliament, both as a deputy and as a senator. The most important dignity he held was that of vice-president of the Chamber of Deputies. He retired from the office of protopope for an economic career, within the “Mica” Society specialized in gold mining.
