\u00cen\ndep\u0103rtatul an 1934, c\u00e2nd Rom\u00e2nia Mare se \u00eendrepta c\u0103tre un moment culminant \u00een\ndezvoltarea sa economic\u0103, intelectualii nem\u0163eni au sim\u0163it nevoia de a crea o revist\u0103\ncare s\u0103-i reprezinte, ca breasl\u0103 a \u015fcolii, min\u0163ii \u015fi artei. \u0162ar\u0103 bogat\u0103, \u00eenv\u0103\u0163\u0103torime\nstr\u00e2mtorat\u0103, nu ca ast\u0103zi, dar pe aproape. Spre a sus\u0163ine o asemenea\n\u00eentreprindere ambi\u0163ioas\u0103, erau necesare cel pu\u0163in dou\u0103 condi\u0163ii indispensabile:\ncondeie \u015fi bani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
La\nchemarea inimo\u015filor \u00eentemeietori, al\u0103turi de \u00eenv\u0103\u0163\u0103tori s-au aliniat imediat\nprofesori \u015fi al\u0163i intelectuali inimo\u015fi din Piatra \u015fi din alte col\u0163uri ale \u0163\u0103rii.\nAm m\u00e2ndria \u015fi bucuria s\u0103 num\u0103r cu respect \u015fi admira\u0163ie, \u00eentre ctitori, doi fii\nai Dobrenilor: Constantin Luchian \u015fi Mihai Av\u0103danei, am\u00e2ndoi fo\u015fti elevi ai\nbunicului meu, institutorul Gheorghe Cojocaru, despre care, \u00een monumentala sa\ncarte despre \u015fcolile \u015fi cultura din Neam\u0163, Constantin Luchian scria cuvinte\nelogioase, de recuno\u015ftin\u0163\u0103 \u015fi m\u00e2ndrie. Ei nu doar s-au al\u0103turat redac\u0163iei, ci\nau avut un rol precump\u0103nitor \u00een rezisten\u0163a \u00een timp \u015fi a calit\u0103\u0163ii acestei\npublica\u0163ii lunare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Citind,\ncu o legitim\u0103 admira\u0163ie, revista din acei ani, unii frumo\u015fi, al\u0163ii dramatici,\nv\u0103d c\u0103 Mihai Av\u0103danei, viitorul profesor universitar din Ia\u015fi \u015fi Constantin\nLuchian au coagulat substan\u0163a \u015ftiin\u0163ific\u0103 \u015fi literar\u0103 a primei serii din\n\u201eApostolul\u201d. Dasc\u0103lii de azi, mai cu seam\u0103 iubitorii de reforme pozitive \u00een\n\u015fcoala rom\u00e2neasc\u0103, vor b\u0103ga de sam\u0103 c\u0103 predecesorii lor erau ni\u015fte deschiz\u0103tori\nde drum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Nici\no anume literatur\u0103, defel provincial\u0103, \u00eens\u0103 timid\u0103 \u015fi resemnat\u0103, nu lipsea, din\npaginile \u201eApostolului\u201d. Pl\u0103cerea cititorului nu va fi dezmin\u0163it\u0103 de versurile\n\u015fi prozele scurte ale d\u0103sc\u0103limii nem\u0163ene. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Scriind\ndespre a doua condi\u0163ie, banii necesari, depun m\u0103rturie despre st\u0103ruin\u0163a \u015fi\nsacrificiile celor din colegiul redac\u0163ional, adesea prezen\u0163i \u00een casa p\u0103rin\u0163ilor\nmei, al\u0103turi de ei fiind totdeauna Mihai \u015fi Constantin Cojocaru, nelipsitul\nVasile G\u0103bureanu, Mihai David \u2013 Ghind\u0103oani, Victor Andrei, Constantin Turcu,\nVictor \u0162\u0103ranu. Nu lipsa materialelor publicabile \u00eei tracasa, aveau totdeauna\ndin bel\u015fug, ci penuria financiar\u0103 permanent\u0103. Deseori puneau m\u00e2n\u0103 de la m\u00e2n\u0103\nsuma necesar\u0103 apari\u0163iei vreunui num\u0103r nestipendiat.

Dup\u0103\nmoartea eroic\u0103 a tinerilor \u00eenv\u0103\u0163\u0103tori nem\u0163eni pe front, \u00een vara anului 1941,\nnum\u0103rul omagial din 1942 a fost redactat, \u00een cea mai mare parte, la Dobreni,\ndup\u0103 ce preotul Constantin Cojocaru fusese \u00een Basarabia, \u00een c\u0103utarea\nosemintelor acelor eroi, ale lui Mihai Cojocaru \u00eentre ei. Nu pot uita atmosfera\nde doliu din acele zile.

Istoria\ncumplit\u0103 a rom\u00e2nilor, care nu ne cru\u0163\u0103 nici acum, a dictat \u00eencetarea brutal\u0103 a\napari\u0163iei celei mai iubite publica\u0163ii a d\u0103sc\u0103limii nem\u0163ene. \u015ei a urmat o lung\u0103\n\u015fi nemeritat\u0103 moarte clinic\u0103!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Al\ndoilea prilej de legitim\u0103 m\u00e2ndrie vine din \u00eent\u00e2mplarea c\u0103 un grup de \u00eenv\u0103\u0163\u0103tori\n\u015fi profesori nem\u0163eni, pe care \u00eei s\u0103rb\u0103torim cu respect pentru ce au f\u0103ptuit \u015fi\nce fac \u00een continuare, au \u00eendeplinit miracolul re\u00eenvierii \u201eApostolului\u201d \u015fi al\ntrecerii cu succes prin anii grei de dup\u0103 Revolu\u0163ie. \u00cel voi aminti cu scuzele\nde rigoare, pe dragul meu prieten, profesorul Gheorghe Amaicei, coleg de genera\u0163ie,\nde catedr\u0103 la Bicaz, de patim\u0103 v\u00e2n\u0103toreasc\u0103, ap\u0103r\u0103tor tenace al intereselor,\nmai ales patrimoniale \u015fi culturale, ale \u00eenv\u0103\u0163\u0103torimii.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
