The government of Hungary has helped our university, through a privileged tender, to be able to remember this jubilee worthy. With the support of the ‘University of Pécs 650 Jubilee’ tender, we organized an international conference on 12–13 October 2017 at the impressive location of the Granary Visitor Information Centre of the Bishopric of Pécs. 21 Cen- tral and Eastern European experts from Austria, the Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, Switzerland, Slovakia, and many Hungarian university history re- searchers have presented their research results from the Middle Ages to the present day. This volume contains the lectures that were given there. The written mate- rial of the lectures will be published as Volume 16 of the ‘Publications of the University Library of Pécs’ series at the end of 2017, in which 12 German and 7 English studies were given. The University Library of Pécs and Centre for Learning – as the program owners of the conference and the book volume, in close cooperation with the University of Pécs Faculty of Humanities Institute of History Department of Medieval and Early Modern History and the University of Pécs Archives – or- ganized a successful international conference presenting the latest scientific achievements of Hungarian and European higher education history research. This volume, which the readers hold in their hand, contains a summary of this scientific meeting. Several colleagues have contributed to both the organiza- tion of the conference, the editing of the volume and the revising of foreign language texts. Thanks for the work of the following: Balázs Arató, Ildikó An- gyal, Fanni Balogh, Márton Czirják, Éva Csikós Kordé, Andrea Gönczi, Martin Méreg, Orsolya Miléder, Dávid Molnár, Miklós Nagy, Veronika Szarka Rózsa, Éva Schmelczer-Pohánka (University Library of Pécs and Centre for Learning), Márta Font, Dániel Bagi, Tamás Fedeles (Department of Medieval and Early Modern History), István Lengvári, Dóra Pálmai, Petra Polyák (University of Pécs Archives). 8 ■ Preface We also thank the staff of the Bishopric of Pécs for ensuring a worthy venue for the conference and, from Virágmandula Ltd., Zsolt Erőss for the demand- ing editing work of the volume. I would therefore offer to the attention of our Dear Readers the 16th volume of the ‘Publications of the University Library of Pécs’ series, in which we present – in the spirit of the 650th jubilee – the results of the latest Euro- pean and Hungarian scientific university history research for the general public. Ágnes Fischer-Dárdai ] Greetings Prof. Dr. József Bódis Rector, University of] Pécs Dear Distinguished Guests, Your Excellency, Dear Director-General, Dear Colleagues, n behalf of the University of Pécs and in the name of all university citi- zens I’d like to welcome all of you at this very important scientific con- Oference. Distinguished guests, you are hosted by the oldest university of Hun- gary of which foundation date goes back to 1367. Our university was founded by the famous Hungarian king Anjou Louis the Great and this foundation was supported by the papal decree. Our university was among the first four univer- sities in the Central European region after Prague, Kraków and Vienna. Few centuries later, the modern University of Pécs was established in 2000 as the merger of former universities. The first pillars were the Medical Univer- sity of Pécs, the Janus Pannonius University and the Teacher Training Centre of Szekszárd. Today, our university consists of 10 faculties and a great medical centre, we have about 20 000 students and we have about 4000 international students who came from 105 different countries from all over the world.

He became a professor in the medical faculty at the University of Vienna, where he was a student, and later became the curator of the collections of the Holy Roman Empire and official historian to Emperor Ferdinand I. He is thought to be the subject of Giuseppe Arcimboldo's famous painting, 'The Librarian'. His varied interests are shown by the title-page, where the border features his books on Austrian history and other works. Lazius states in the dedication that he drew both of the maps himself. They are highly attractive, and contain a wealth of detail. The first map, in book I, covers all of Greece including the Peloponnese and coast of Asia Minor, drawing on the works of Ptolemy. It has a large and elaborate title cartouche, surrounded by classical deities representing the areas in Greece to which they are linked. On either side are the figures of Hercules (Thebes) and Hermes (Kyllini), with four portrait medallions showing Minerva (Attica, or Athens), Jupiter (Olympus), Ceres, and Neptune (Corinth). The map's border is composed of medallions with the names of Greek cities and small pieces of information, separated by region.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 Abstract This thesis explores the transmission of information about classical inscriptions and their use in historical scholarship between 1530 and 1603. It aims to demonstrate that antiquarians' approach to one form of material non-narrative evidence for the ancient world reveals a developed sense of history, and that this approach can be seen as part of a more general interest in expanding the subject matter of history and the range of sources with which it was examined. It examines the milieu of the men who studied inscriptions, arguing that the training and intellectual networks of these men, as well as the need to secure patronage and the constraints of printing, were determining factors in the scholarship they undertook. It then considers the first collections of inscriptions that aimed at a comprehensive survey, and the systems of classification within these collections, to show that these allowed scholars to produce lists and series of features in the ancient world; the conventions used to record inscriptions and what scholars meant by an accurate transcription; and how these conclusions can influence our attitude to men who reconstructed or forged classical material in this period.

    Chapter 4 Antiquario Della Sacra Cesarea Maesta: Strada’s Tasks at Court 4.1 Looking for Patronage: Strada’s Arrival at the Imperial Court 4.1.1 Pope, King or Emperor: The Choice of a Patron We know very little about Strada’s activities immediately after his return to Germany, and we do not even know when exactly he returned. He must have visited Venice, possibly on his way up to Mantua, but more likely from there, leaving his family and his effects in the care of his relatives. In Venice he made arrangements for the printing of the two books of which he had acquired the manuscripts from Onofrio Panvinio, the Fasti et triumphi and the Epitome pontificum. By the end of 1555 the planning of this was sufficiently advanced for Strada to make a formal request for a copyright privilege, which Charles v granted him from Brussels on the 8th of January of 1556. Apart from the two books by Panvinio, the privilege also includes the first mention of a volumi- nous illustrated universal dictionary or encyclopaedia in the three classical languages, and of a new, Latin edition of Leandro Alberti’s Descrittione d’Italia, which was likewise intended to be illustrated.1 This request is the first indica- tion of Strada’s ambition to set up as a publisher himself, and particularly as a publisher of books aimed at a scholarly or at least educated audience. What is particular about the books mentioned here, is that all were planned to include printed images to illustrate the text, or to add information that could not easily be conveyed in words alone.

  • Emperor Ferdinand I and the Antique: the Antique As Innovation
    Emperor Ferdinand I and the Antique: OPEN the Antique as Innovation ACCESS Dirk Jacob Jansen This paper proposes an approach to the study of the attitude towards antiquarian studies and the use of the antique example in the patronage of art at the court of Emperor Ferdinand I. KEYWORDS: Ferdinand I; antiquarianism; diffusion of innovations; Renaissance architecture; patronage FERDINAND’S INTEREST IN THE ANTIQUE This paper presents what is very much work in progress: it is a by-product of my research for the book on the career of Jacopo Strada (Mantua 1516 — Vienna 1588), antiquary and architect of the Emperors Ferdinand I, Maximilian II and Rudolf II, which will come out as my belated dissertation at Leiden in September of this year.1 In my book I take for granted that Ferdinand I, after having visited Strada’s studio in Nuremberg, had a reason to respond positively when, early in 1558, Strada petitioned him for a post at court in a beautiful phrase: “Hora se la Maestà Vostra li piace di acetarmi nel numero de li suoi virtuosi, del canto mio farò ogni debito per farmi honore,” that is: “So if it would please Your Majesty to accept me among his learned men, I on my side will do everything I can to merit the honour.”2 But I do not really know what that reason may have been. Strada had presented himself as an expert in ancient numismatics: if Ferdinand invited him to come to Vienna, it may be assumed that he felt a need for Strada’s competence as antiquary.

  • Cartographic Circles: Maps of Hungary As the Habsburg- Ottoman Military Border in the 16Th Century
    Cartographic circles: maps of Hungary as the Habsburg- Ottoman military border in the 16th century Zsolt Győző Török * Institute of Cartography and Geoinformatics, ELTE Eötvös Loránd University, Budapest, Hungary – [email protected], * https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6447-1499 Abstract: The expansion of the Ottoman Empire became an all-European military problem after the 1526 battle of Mohács and the fall of the Kingdom of Hungary A huge zone of defence was constructed between the Habsburg and Ottoman powers, dividing the former country. The first map of the country (Lazarus, 1528) was printed to serve Habsburg, imperial and Christian propaganda. The printed maps in the first half of the 16th century were compiled by humanist scholars (Lazius, 1556), and their representations of the stage of the Turkish wars were circulated in European atlases (Ortelius, 1570). Although proper military maps were rare in the Renaissance, the systematic, military-purpose mapping of the border fortifications indicates a Habsburg military cartography. The cartographic workshop of the Angelinis, an Italian family of military architects in Vienna, produced systematic collections of plans, views and chorographic maps in the 1570s. Map historians rarely consider the transfer of cartographic information between different modes and audiences. In this paper, the exchanges between Renaissance humanistic, military and commercial mapping are studied by map examples. Emphasizing the functional and representational changes the cartographic processes implied we focus on the connections between the contemporary, public and printed and the secret and manuscript cartographies. To expand the scope of the study a cross-cultural example, the representations of the 1566 siege of Sziget on Venetian prints and Ottoman topographical miniatures are compared.

  • A Mercurial Monarch and His Magical Metropolis Rudolf II’S Prague and Its Alchemical Association
    A Mercurial Monarch and His Magical Metropolis Rudolf II’s Prague and Its Alchemical Association Charlie Smith University of Cambridge Abstract In 1583 the Habsburg emperor Rudolf II established Prague as his Residenzstadt and thus shifted the political center of gravity within Central Europe to his Bohemian capital. As a result, the city emerged as the focus of Europe’s intellectual and creative universe. Rudolf, whose curiosity was legendary, amassed a celebrated cabinet of curiosities with objects from afar afield as India. His imperial court attracted the Renaissance’s best artists and architects, while also cultivating an esoteric enclave in which alchemists vied for the sovereign’s patronage. Indeed, Rudolf sponsored the fervent exploration of alchemy in an attempt to create harmony within his discordant world. This article further demonstrates the ubiquity of alchemical intrigue within Prague, revealing a lexicon which served numerous interests both within and without the royal court. Alchemy, Hermetic philosophy, and mystical theosophy were indelibly inscribed onto the urban canvas by Rudolf II but were also pursued by various actors throughout the Holy Roman Empire and beyond. Whether as a pathway to apotheosis sought by European rulers or as route to fame and favor for interlopers of the state, alchemy was a mutable concept that spawned expansive connections throughout Central Europe. Article The German cartographer Heinrich Bünting (c.1545-1606) presented Bohemia as the beating heart of the entire continent in his anthropomorphic

  • MEMORY of the WORLD REGISTER Tabula Hungariae Ref N° 2006-11
    MEMORY OF THE WORLD REGISTER Tabula Hungariae Ref N° 2006-11 Proposed by the: National Széchényi Library, Hungary in association with Austrian National Library and Croatian National and University Library PART A – ESSENTIAL INFORMATION 1 SUMMARY This document is a map representing faithfully and in much detail the structure of settlements that could be found on the territory of the Hungarian Kingdom (corresponding to the territory of modern Hungary, Slovakia and including parts of modern Austria, Ukraine, Romania, Serbia/Montenegro, Croatia and Slovenia). This representation has an even greater value due to the fact, that many settlements disappeared during the Turkish wars of the 16th century fought there. It should be noted, that for several centurie, sresearch workers and interested persons had only an indirect knowledge of this document, up to the time, when it reappeared in the 1880’s, when the collector Sándor Apponyi acquired it. He later offered it (in 1924) to the National Library, which included it in the Library’s collection of rare and historical works. As is clear from the title, the Tabula Hungariae was a collective work. The Hungarian Lazarus Secretarius made the surveys on which the map was based (with assistance from Jacob Ziegler, q.v.) and probably supplied a draft of the map; Apian's mentor Tanstetter (Collimitus), an accomplished cartographer, put it into proper shape and completed it by adding data of his own and a scale (the privilege is also in his name); and Cuspinianus published the map or authorized the funds for it and dedicated it to the king.
