Excerpt The article deals with an unknown text about Transylvania and its inhabitants, which is included in the VIII th tome of the Abrégé de l’histoire générale des voyages faits en Europe. Suite du voyage en Allemagne (Paris, Chez Moutardier, Libraire, 1804, pp.351-362), by the anglo-australien scientist Robert Townson (1764-1827). It contains the French translation of his travel account intitled Voyage en Hongrie, published in English in London, in 1797, to which a description of Transylvania is added which Robert Townson indicates as a manuscript of prince Francis II Rákóczi. Yet its paternity rests a mystery: who is the real author, Robert Townson, Francis II Rákóczi or even somebody else?
