  • PAUL-RĂZVAN ŞERBAN, Ethnical
    ETHNICAL STRUCTURE DYNAMICS OF MARAMUREŞ REGION (ROMANIA) PAUL-RĂZVAN ŞERBAN* Key-words: ethnical structure, dynamics, diversity, Maramureş, Romania. Abstract. The ethnical structure of Maramureş is the outcome of an ongoing process that has passed through some important stages connected with the rise and fall of the empires that used to dispute neighbouring territories. Worth recalling is the way in which these empires referred to the religion of conquered populations, or of their allied peoples. Christianity with the Proto-Romanians goes back to the time of Apostle Andrew, it gradually developing until the 8th century, a period in which it became the official religion of the Byzantine Empire (AD 313 – the Edict of Milan), spreading out in the territories inhabited by Romanians. The political pressures of the neighbouring empires of Maramureş ceased after the Second World War and the ethnical groups inside the province would evolved "normally". A significant increase registered the Rroma population, while the other ethnical minorities and the Romanian population are declining through population aging. 1. HISTORICAL CONSIDERATIONS The Christian population of Moldavia and Wallachia was under the protection of the Patriarchate of Constantinople (10th – 19th cc) except for the years 1235–1393, when it was under the guardianship of the Tyrnovo Metropolitan See. Throughout that time, the Transylvanian Christians (inclusive of those in Maramureş) had a distinctively different situation. In AD 732, the iconoclast Byzantine Emperor Leon the Sirian, dissolved the Prima Justiniana Bishopric. Basil the Second (the Bulgaroctone) would Christian the Russians (roundabout the year AD 890) when Vladimir, the Great Knez of Kiev, married Anne, the Emperor’s sister after having helped the Byzantines fight the Bulgarians (Brezeanu, 2005).

  • Viktor Orbán's Hungary: Orbanist Politics and Philosophy from A
    Viktor Orbán’s Hungary: Orbanist Politics and Philosophy from a Historical Perspective Gellért Rajcsányi The parliamentary election of 2010 opened a new era in the politics of Hungary. Initially, many were surprised by the introduction of the System of National Cooperation through a declaration1 right after the election, but now, after eight years, one can really see that there is indeed a new era, a new system in Hungary. However, one can discuss2, 3 whether it is really a system of national cooperation or not. Not everyone is capable of creating a new political system or era. To do that, real political talent is needed. Viktor Orbán has political talent. After defeating—or surviving—his earlier political rivals, now, at the young age of 54, he is the grand old statesman of Hungarian politics. It is also not by chance that Mr. Orbán is now a well-known player4 at the European level of politics either. The last hundred years were a historic helter-skelter for the Hungarian nation.5 Thriving years, crisis, collapse, rising from the ruins and ashes—all of these hap- pened to the Hungarians (and to the neighbouring nations) in the 20th century, and not just once. Unlike the Britons or Scandinavians, the people of Central Europe had to start their political and economic system, and their own lives and careers, all over, again and again, even within one generation’s lifetime. Those who wanted to be in politics in these countries had to deal with all the hopes, fears and tensions of these societies that had accumulated in the past century.

  • Hungarian Studies Review
    Dynastic Intrigues and Domestic Realities during the Reigns of Andrew I and Bela I Z. J. Kosztolnyik Porro dux Andreas a perturba- cionibus hostiumsecurus effectus in regia civitate Alba regalem coronam est adeptus. Chronicon pictum, c. 86. In the mid-1030s, the cousin of King Stephen I of Hungary, Prince Vazul (the son of Michael, the younger brother of Geza, Stephen's father) conspired to assassinate the elderly and ailing king. The conspiracy was discovered and the king's court had Vazul blinded and his three sons: Levente, Andrew and Bela, banished from the kingdom.1 Next, a new article was added to the recently promulgated Laws of King Stephen (art. ii: 17) regarding conspiracy against king and country. The article pro- claimed that the organizer of such conspiracy may find no refuge in a church. Although this decree shows similarity in concept and wording to the brief entry 5 of the Synod of Mainz (847 a.d.), the phrasing of the Hungarian article is firmer: it outlaws the traitor not only from the community of believers, but from the Church itself. Upon the death of King Stephen in 1038, his nephew, Peter the Orseolo — the son of one of Stephen's sisters, and the favourite of Queen Gisela, Stephen's widow (and the sister of the Holy Roman Emperor, Henry II) — ascended the Hungarian throne. His tyrannical rule (from 1038 to 1041 and from 1044 to 1046) encountered strong opposition. In 1041 Peter fled the realm after which his opponents elected Samuel Aba, the Palatine of the country and husband of Stephen's other sister, as their king.

It lies in Lajos Kossuth Square, on the bank of the Danube. It is currently the largest building in Hungary and still the tallest building in Budapest. The Parliament Building is in the Gothic Revival style; it has a symmetrical façade and a central dome. The dome is Renaissance Revival architecture. Also from inside the parliament is symmetrical and thus has two absolutely identical parliament halls out of which one is used for the politics, the other one is used for guided tours. It is 268 m (879 ft) long and 123 m (404 ft) wide. Its interior includes 10 courtyards, 13 passenger and freight elevators, 27 gates, 29 staircases and 691 rooms (including more than 200 offices).

  • The Private Law of the Principality of Transylvania (1540–1690)
    ACTA UNIV. SAPIENTIAE, LEGAL STUDIES, 9, 2 (2020) 269–306 DOI: 10 .47745/AUSLEG .2020 .9 .2 .05 The Private Law of the Principality of Transylvania (1540–1690) Attila HORVÁTH PhD, University Professor Eötvös Loránd University, Faculty of Law (Budapest, Hungary), Department of the History of Hungarian State and Law E-mail: horvath .attila@ajk .elte .hu Abstract. In the period between AD 1540 and 1690, Transylvania enjoyed a high degree of independence in conducting its internal and also, at times, external affairs . This led to the divergence of Transylvanian private law from that of the Kingdom of Hungary, the sovereignty of which ceased in the sense of international law following the defeat at the Battle of Mohács . This divergent development is examined in the present study from the perspective of private law along with the later convergence of legal norms to those of the Habsburg Monarchy during the latter half of the 17th century . The sources of private law as well as private law norms governing the status of persons, immovable and movable property, obligations, and inheritance are examined in detail for this period. The specific laws applicable to the Szekler, Saxon, and Romanian inhabitants of Transylvania are also presented . Keywords: Principality of Transylvania, private law, inheritance law, family law, law of persons 1. Introduction. Sources of Law 1.1. The Laws of Transylvania After the Battle of Mohács, in which the Ottoman Turks defeated the armies of the Kingdom of Hungary, the political fortunes of Transylvania were forever altered . As a newly formed principality with autonomy in its internal – and at times also external – affairs, the development of legal norms in the field of private law slowly diverged from the models developed in the previous 500-year period .

  • JOHN HUNYADI Hungary in American History Textbooks
    JOHN HUNYADI Hungary in American History Textbooks by Andrew L. Simon 1996 Copyright © 1997, Andrew L. Simon CONTENTS Prologue Introduction Highlights of Hungarian History Book Reviews Greaves Kagan Kishlansky McNeill Perry Analysis and Conclusions PROLOGUE A particularly demagogic member of Hungary’s parliament, Representative József Torgyán of the Smallholders Party expressed his bitter frustration in a recent speech. He said: „Hungary received nothing from the West but Trianon and the bells tolling at noon.” This would have puzzled an average well educated American. Most American universities require a course on „Western Cultural Traditions” for graduation. Neither Trianon, nor any bells are mentioned in those courses. Southern California’s well known tourist attraction is the Mission of San Juan de Capistrano. But few Americans would know that Juan’s real name was Giovanni, that he was an Italian priest, Pope Calixtus III.’s emissary to John Hunyadi in the summer of 1456. Hunyadi was a legendary commander of the Hungarian army, who fought countless battles against the Ottoman Turks in the Balkans. Capistrano’s mission was difficult. Turkish Sultan Mohammed II was assembling a vast army to conquer Europe. The Hundred Years War has just ended, Europe was in disarray. Unable to assemble any force to resist the Turkish onslaught, the pope sent Father Capistrano to Hunyadi with his blessings and his prayers. To pray for this victory Pope Calixtus III commanded1 all churches of Christendom to toll the bells at noon till eternity. The Turks encircled Belgrade, the major southern border fort of Hungary. The defenders fought heroically, but with little hope.

  • 290 POPE SYLVESTER II April ALTHOUGH the Bull Said
    290 POPE SYLVESTER II April POPE SYLVBSTBB H AND STEPHBH I OP HTJHGABY. ALTHOUGH the bull said to have been issued by Sylvester II to the first king of Hungary is admitted by competent 'authorities to be a forgery, presumably of the seventeenth century,1 it may not be without interest to give a short account of the present state of the controversy among Hungarian scholars relative to the question. The orthodox story is that the son of the last duke of Hungary, the latter having embraced Christianity, applied to the pope about the year 1000 for a crown, which request was readily granted. Downloaded from The crown was subsequently united with another sent by the emperor of the East to Geza I (after 1074), and the two diadems thus conjoined form the present ' holy crown' or ' St. Stephen's crown,' used at the coronation of the kings of Hungary. Accom- panying his gift Sylvester II is said to have issued a bull investing http://ehr.oxfordjournals.org/ Stephen and his successors with the full powers of a papal legate; and in token of this office the Hungarian kings have ever since borne the title of ' Apostolic King' and enjoyed the privilege of having an apostolic double cross carried before them on solemn occasions. The double cross appears as the principal charge on the sinister half of the Hungarian escutcheon. In 1880 a committee was appointed by the Hungarian Academy at University of Michigan on July 10, 2015 of Sciences to examine the coronation insignia, and the results of its inquiries were published by Dr.

  • Royal Sanctity and the Writing of History on the Peripheries of Latin Christendom, C
    ROYAL SANCTITY AND THE WRITING OF HISTORY ON THE PERIPHERIES OF LATIN CHRISTENDOM, C. 1000 - 1200 Elizabeth Hasseler A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: Marcus G. Bull Jessica A. Boon Flora Cassen Jehangir Malegam Brett E. Whalen © 2018 Elizabeth Hasseler ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Elizabeth Hasseler: Royal Saints and the Writing of History on the Peripheries of Latin Christendom, c. 1000 - 1200 (Under the Direction of Marcus G. Bull) In the eleventh and twelfth centuries, the edges of Latin Christendom were expanding outwards as new peoples along its northern and eastern peripheries converted to the Christian faith, including the Danes, Norwegians, and Hungarians. Closely related to this process of Christianization was the centralization of traditionally disunited peoples into unitary polities under the rule of new royal dynasties. These early kings used their novel political authority to patronize religious men and houses, found episcopal institutions, and enforce Christian observance amongst their peoples, and in turn they wielded the spiritual legitimacy offered by their new faith to bolster their dynastic ambitions. Founder-kings such as Knútr IV of Denmark, Óláfr II Haraldsson of Norway, Stephen I of Hungary, and Ladislaus I of Hungary were central to the emergence of their Christian kingdoms: and in death, they came to be venerated as their peoples’ first Christian saints. This dissertation explores the centrality of royal sanctity to the historical traditions of medieval Norway, Denmark, and Hungary.

  • Hungarian Studies Review
    Hungary's Conversion to Christianity: The Establishment of Hungarian Statehood and its Consequences to the Thirteenth Century Laszlo Veszpremy The Carpathian Basin occupies a peculiar place in history. It was the ground where Roman-Germanic world met that of the Slavs and mounted nomad peoples, where no group had achieved sustained unity before the state of Hungary was founded.1 Its function was more as a kind of channel through which nomadic peoples, like the Ostrogoths, Gepids and Longobards, launched successful drives into the heart of Europe, or failed in the attempt, as in the case of the Huns (420-455), and subsequently broke up. The Huns opened up the road to Europe for the Germanic tribes, and the Avars opened up the Balkans to the Slavs, until the Hunga- rians finally closed the channel off. The dominion of the Romans and the Huns was confined to certain areas of the basin. The Avars (568-803) took control of the whole of it, while Charlemagne's Frankish empire extended only to Transdanubia, the region's most developed area. It was here, on the remains of the Roman, Avar, Frankish and Frankish-Slav cultures, that the Hungarians settled in the tenth century. After Arpad and his successors secured the area, they set up the first bishoprics and organized the first counties. This basin can be regarded as a missing piece of an enormous jigsaw, filled in by the establishment of Hungarian power, aided to some extent by accidental events. After the Huns and Avars, the setting up of Hungarian rule was accompanied by consolidation and modernization of the basin, and was assisted by hitherto unknown stability in East Central Europe.

The comparative-civilizational concept herein employed views civilizations as societies with cities, constituting networks whose nodes are the cities and whose links are the avenues of movement between cities. Cities are interlinked in networks cultural, political and economic. The boundaries of these networks are not the same. This paper examines one civilizational network in its political aspect. Politics is understood as per Hans Morgenthau (1978): a struggle for power and peace, the struggle being unending, the power (if any) and the peace (if any) being transitory.
