Quincentenary of István Werbőczy's Tripartitum
MAGYAR POSTA INFORMATION: Tel: (+36 1) 76 77 329 E-mail: [email protected] /2014 ORDER: 20 Tel: (+36 1) 76 77 174 Fax: (+36 1) 28 81 522 E-mail: [email protected] Internet: www.posta.hu QUINCENTENARY OF ISTVÁN WERBŐCZY’S TRIPARTITUM Magyar Posta is marking the quincentenary of the Tripartitum by issuing a commemorative miniature sheet containing four stamps. The compilation of the three-part book of the Kingdom of Hungary’s customary law was commenced in 1504 by István Werbőczy, who was later elevated from lord chief justice to palatine, and was completed in 1514. The stamps show the cover page of the translation of the Tripartitum, published in Debrecen in 1565. The stamp was designed by the graphic artist György Kara and produced by the ANY Security Printing Company. The new issue will be available at large post offices and Filaposta in Hungary from 4 July, but may also be purchased from Magyar Posta’s online store. In the 15th century feudal fragmentation and attempts to centralise appeared in the field of the law-making. The sources of the law used in charters were unclear and different legal rules were applied in different cities. Following German, Czech and Polish precedents, the need for a unified code of laws became apparent in Hungary as well. Lord Chief Justice István Werbőczy was appointed to complete this task by Vladislaus II of Hungary. The diet of 1514 approved the Tripartitum, which also received the king’s assent, but the magnates on the royal council did not want the lesser nobility to be involved in government and for this reason obstructed its promulgation and introduction. -
The History of Books and Libraries in Bohemia
Digital Editing of Medieval Manuscripts - Intellectual Output 1: Resources for Editing Medieval Texts (Paleography, Codicology, Philology) The history of books and libraries in Bohemia Michal Dragoun (Charles Univeristy in Prague) While books were initially rare in medieval Bohemia, they would come to play an important role in the lives of all social classes by the end of the Middle Ages. The pace of that advancement was not, however, constant. Many factors contributed to spread of books and to their use, some of them pushed the advancement forward significantly, others less significantly. Books were initially a monopoly of the Church and its institutions but gradually, the circle of book users extended to the laity and more and more texts came to be written in vernacular languages. Acknowledging the abundance or research into medieval books and libraries more generally, this overview will comment only on the most significant moments in the book culture of medieval Bohemia. There are two fundamental turning points in the history of Medieval Bohemian book culture – these were the establishment of a university in Prague, and the Hussite Reformation. To provide a brief overview of types of libraries, it is necessary to categorize them and study the development of individual categories. In any case, the Hussite period was the real turning point for a number of them. Sources The sheer abundance of sources provides the basis for a comprehensive overview of Bohemian book culture. The manuscripts themselves are the most significant source. However, the catalogues used to study Bohemian collections tend to be very old. As a result, the records are often incomplete and contextual information is often unavailable. -

THE WHITE INTERNATIONAL: ANATOMY OF A TRANSNATIONAL RADICAL REVISIONIST PLOT IN CENTRAL EUROPE AFTER WORLD WAR I Nicholas Alforde Submitted in accordance with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Social and International Studies University of Bradford 2013 Principal Supervisor: Gábor Bátonyi, DPhil Abstract Nicholas Alforde The White International: Anatomy of a Transnational Radical Revisionist Plot in Central Europe after World War I Keywords: Bauer, Gömbös, Horthy, Ludendorff, Orgesch, paramilitary, Prónay, revision, Versailles, von Kahr The denial of defeat, the harsh Versailles Treaty and unsuccessful attempts by paramilitary units to recover losses in the Baltic produced in post-war Germany an anti- Bolshevik, anti-Entente, radical right-wing cabal of officers with General Ludendorff and Colonel Bauer at its core. Mistakenly citing a lack of breadth as one of the reason for the failure of their amateurishly executed Hohenzollern restoration and Kapp Putsch schemes, Bauer and co-conspirator Ignatius Trebitsch-Lincoln devised the highly ambitious White International plot. It sought to form a transnational league of Bavaria, Austria and Hungary to force the annulment of the Paris Treaties by the coordinated use of paramilitary units from the war vanquished nations. It set as its goals the destruction of Bolshevism in all its guises throughout Europe, the restoration of the monarchy in Russia, the systematic elimination of all Entente-sponsored Successor States and the declaration of war on the Entente. -
Private Law in Transylvania As Part of the Kingdom of Hungary
ACTA UNIV. SAPIENTIAE, LEGAL STUDIES, 9, 2 (2020) 225–254 DOI: 10 .47745/AUSLEG .2020 .9 .2 .03 Private Law in Transylvania as Part of the Kingdom of Hungary Mária HOMOKI-NAGY PhD, University Professor University of Szeged (Szeged, Hungary), Faculty of Law and Political Sciences E-mail: homokijuris .u-szeged .hu Abstract. Transylvania was part of the mediaeval Kingdom of Hungary beginning from the founding of this kingdom and until the year 1540, when, due to historic circumstances, it became for a time a separate entity . The development of private law in this historical space was therefore in the beginning in large part convergent with that of Hungary . However, having a multi-ethnic population consisting of Hungarians, Szeklers, Saxons, and Romanians, with the first three nationalities benefitting from different, autonomous forms of administrative organization, a lot is to be said of specific Transylvanian private law. This study presents those elements and sources of private law which characterized legal relationships in Transylvania beginning with the founding of the Kingdom of Hungary and until the separation of this region from Hungary due to Ottoman conquest . We examine the major sources of law, consisting of customary law, statutory law, and acts of royal power . We then present in summarized form the main characteristics and provisions of the law applicable to persons, the family, immovable and movable property but also inheritance. Some specific private law regulations applicable to Szeklers and Saxons are also presented as well as the perspective of Romanian legal literature regarding the private law applicable to Romanians . Keywords: legal history, Transylvania, Kingdom of Hungary, feudal property, nobility, serfdom 1. -

Hungarian Historical Review 1, No
Hungarian Historical Review 1, no. 1–2 (2012): 134–165 Roland Perényi Urban Places, Criminal Spaces: Police and Crime in Fin de Siècle Budapest This essay examines the processes by which police oversight came to emerge in Budapest at the turn of the century and expanded to cover ever larger sections of the city. It also considers aspects of public safety from the perspective of the relationship between the capital and the urban communities on its periphery. The patterns of the expansion of police authorities in the urban space suggest that, rather than exercise control over social groups (workers, the poor) perceived as potentially dangerous by representatives of power, the police were called upon to protect private property, and in particular to exercise authority in parts of the city in which members of the elite and middle class lived. In contrast, in the outlying parts of the city one has the impression at fi rst glance that the police increased its presence fi rst and foremost in areas in which members of the working class lived. Closer scrutiny, however, reveals that the expansion of the authority of the municipal police to the outlying parts of the city served not to further the “compelled acculturation” of workers, but rather as a means of removing “undesirable” elements (criminals, vagrants, and beggars who traveled between the inner districts and the outskirts) from the capital. Historical scholarship is devoting increasing attention to the notion of space and spatiality. The utilization of space as an analytic category has become so widespread in Western social history that, in addition to “linguistic” and “cultural” turns, some have begun to talk about a “spatial turn” as well.1 Urban- history research ascribes particular importance to the notion of space. -

This is the Accepted Manuscript version of Fatsar, Kristof (2017) ‘Enjoying country life to the full – only the English know how to do that!’: appreciation of the British country house by Hungarian aristocratic travellers. In: Stobart, Jon, (ed.) Travel and the British country house: cultures, critiques and consumption in the long eighteenth century. U.K. : Manchester University Press. pp. 145-167. ISBN 9781526110329 The full book details can be found at https://manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526110329/ Chapter 7 ‘Enjoying country life to the full – only the English know how to do that!’: appreciation of the British country house by Hungarian aristocratic travellers Kristof Fatsar Introduction Britain was the most attractive new travel destination for Hungarian aristocrats1 towards the end of the eighteenth and the first half of the nineteenth century. This phenomenon followed continental fashion, as the achievements of the British agricultural as well as the industrial revolution attracted nobility and professionals from all over the Continent, and from Hungary too, to study the new methods first hand.2 Naturally, different levels of Hungarian society had different agenda when travelling. Country house tourism was an activity pursued with various interests based on the difference in wealth, upbringing, cultural involvement and so on. Nevertheless, it was followed by intellectuals who were more likely to share their experiences with the wider public in written form. In that sense, it is better recorded than the experiences of others who travelled to Britain for commercial or other more down-to-earth purposes. Regrettably, there are no reliable data to judge the percentage of noblemen or intellectuals from the early period of visits to Britain. -

The Continuity Between the Enlightenment and Nationalism Politics and Historical Narratives of Narratives Andhistorical Politics
THE CONTINUITY BETWEEN THE ENLIGHTENMENT AND NATIONALISM: POLITICS AND HISTORICAL NARRATIVES OF THE CROATIAN NATIONAL REVIVAL By Vilim Pavlovic Submitted to Central European University History Department In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisor: Professor László Kontler Second Reader: Professor Balázs Trencsényi CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2014 Statement of Copyright Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author. Copies by any process, either in full or part, may be made only in accordance with the instructions given by the Author and lodged in the Central European Library. Details may be obtained from the librarian. This page must form a part of any such copies made. Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection i Abstract This thesis provides a look the fundamental programmatic articles of the Croatian National Revival. It attempts to first contextualize the Croatian national movement within the context of the Habsburg Monarchy, and especially in regards to the relationship of Croatia and Hungary. Secondly, the thesis attempts to explore the possible continuity between the ideology of the Croatian National Revival and the Enlightenment. This is done using some of the fundamental documents of the national movement. Looking at the political program of the national movement, I attempt to identify the influences of the Enlightenment in both explicit and implicit level. Furthermore, as this thesis is on a fundamental level concerned with nationalism, I will explore the interaction between the political programs of the national movement and historical narratives as both are often found in the same text.
