"This is a collection of biographical essays of 160 Romanian women, from antiquity, through the middle ages to the present-day, with the greater emphasis on modern and contemporary women."
The title means basically "Romanian blouse"(you're smart, I know you got that!) which actually depicts a piece of the national folk costume. I'm recommending the book and also the attire. Btw: the cover art work is a reinterpretation of Henri Matisse. Starting 1940, he created a series of paintings with women in Romanian blouses.
