Wiktionary examples

These source excerpts show how Romane appears in context. They illustrate usage; the definition above remains the entry’s reference meaning.

  1. „Erstens haben weder die Slawen, noch die Romanen, noch die Madjaren der Monarchie eine österreichische Kultur anerkannt, sie kannten nur ihre eigene und eine deutsche, die sie nicht mochten; die ‚österreichische‘ Kultur war eine Spezialität der Deutschösterreicher, welche gleichfalls eine deutsche nicht haben wollten.“
  2. „Häufig wurden die merowingerzeitlichen Romanen tendenziell als Überrest der vorangegangenen römischen Epoche angesehen, während die Germanen – je nach Standpunkt – als deren Vernichter, Überwinder oder Erben galten.“
