    1613 is an important date both in the history of the Royal Hungary and of the Principality of Transylvania. In this year, the Turks put an end to the reckless and inordinate political career of Gábor Báthory, helping his former devotee, Gábor Bethlen, into the throne of Transylvania. With this, a long blooming started in the life of the Principality. The centre of Bihar county, the castle of Várad played an important strategical role already during the 15-Year War, Várad meant the gate to Transylvania. The Royal Hungary put efforts into getting the castle back – in vain – even after the death of Gábor Báthory. András Nagylucsei Dóczy received order for the turning over of Várad first as a royal commissioner, and then as the chief of the Castle of Szatmár. In my study, I present the relationship of the two castles in the closing days of the principality of Gábor Báthory based on the extensive correspondence of the chief of Szatmár.
  • Néhány gondolat az udvari papokról és szerepükről a Rákócziak korában (1630–1655)

    In this study, I first analyse the population of the court and in that, the notion of thecourt preacher; and then I present, through the life of some former court preachers, what sociological background and qualifications the preachers here should have had, and what expectations had been there towards them. (The monarchs of Transylvania belonged to the Protestant confessions from 1604 till 1690, although this did not apply to all but most of their family members.) How did this change by the Rákóczi era? In what do and do not István Geleji Katona, Pál Medgyesi, György Csulai, János Dali, and Pál Keresztúri Bíró resemble their predecessors? Did their role change between 1630 and 1660 as opposed to the era of Gábor Báthory – Gábor Bethlen – Catherine of Brandenburg? This study aims to find the answers to these questions.
  • A XX. század első országgyűlési választása Nagyváradon

    The structure of the study is characterized by duality: it presents the whole election of 1901, and it also analyses the social distribution of the population participating in the parliamentary elections in Oradea. The appearance of the working class is one of the peculiarities of the parliamentary elections in Oradea. With the single vote they got, they did not really have a say in the competition, but they forecast their future presence in the political life of Hungary. Another characteristic feature is the outcome of the election of representatives: based onthe cast votes, the independentist Béla Barabás won against Kálmán Tisza. Based on a comparison of the list of electors and the number of votes, it became possible to examine the political behaviour and social distribution of those having the right to vote. According to the data, Tisza was supported by industrialists, a narrow spectrum of leaders in the administrative apparatus, and some part of the middle class, and he was less supported by the lower middle class. Barabás got support from the part of the middle class that was devoted to the conception of independence, and the majority of the lower middle class and peasantry.

    The paradigm shift after the spatial turn took place also in historical studies, during which historians placed the urban space use into the centre of the scope of their research. These research processes use a wide variety of resources. To study the “personal space” and daily movements of particular persons, it is exclusively the diaries that provide a basis –according to Gábor Gyáni. In this study, I aim to track – concentrating primarily on the register data of the Széchenyi Breviary – the nation-wide movements of the “greatest Hungarian” between May 1840 and May 1843, and thereby present the daily space use of a multihomed magnate like Széchenyi. In this work, I enumerate not only the travels of the Count, but also the routes he tookand the vehicles he used. Moreover, in connection with travels starting from Pest and Nagycenk, I also reflect on how much a person’s social relationships and daily routine were affected by space.

    The subject of this study is one episode of the parliamentary elections in Hungary in
    the era of dualism. Features: one district, one mandate, open electoral system, censory
    electoral law. Date and venue: 1878, Oradea. The following are indicating the cornerstones of the work: the preparations and organization of the parliamentary election,
    introduction of the contestant candidates, the process and the results. On the occasion
    of the parliamentary elections in every three- and then five-year period, there were social movements: the small number of those who had right to vote and the masses of
    those who were trapped outside also presented themselves; they made their voices
    heard.
  • Antropogén tájátalakítás az Érmelléken a 19. század második felében

    In recent years, there has been a resurgence of scientific interest, both internationally and domestically, in the effects of human landscape-altering activities, likely in connection with the climate change currently being experienced. In the Érmellék region, the anthropogenic transformation of the landscape began before water regulation, with the deforestation and conversion of woodlands into arable land, although the process affected the settlements of the micro-region differently. In the Great Plain, particularly in the eastern Tisza region, arable lands generally expanded at the expense of meadows and pastures. However, in the landscape examined, changes initially dominated in the direction of forest-arable land conversion. The deforestation altered the hydrological conditions of the landscape, leading to the gathering of water in lowlands due to drainage from elevations. Partly due to the rainier climate and partly because of the improper drainage attempts by the landowners in Nyírség, the construction of drainage channels became necessary in Nagyléta and the micro-region, which, in turn, spurred further expansion of arable land. The expansion of arable lands largely occurred on poor-quality sandy soil, which did not ensure significant income growth for the population of the micro-region.
  • A trianoni államhatár hatása a Nyírség és a Szatmári-síkság társadalmára 1900 és 1941 között

    In my study, I am primarily looking for the answer to how the Trianon state border affected the society of the Nyírség and the Szatmár plain in the first half of the 20th century. The recent literature of geography clearly classifies the Trans-Tisza border strip along the Hungarian-Romanian border as a peripheral area, but the question is whether the new state border had a negative effect between 1920 and 1941 or could have been the result of a longer-term process. In the case of the Nyírség and the Szatmár plain, I consider the districts in contact with the state border to be the border zone. I examine the problem of living near the border through two development indicators, one of which is the migration balance and the other the literacy rate. I hope that through the examination of the migratory movement and the education conditions, it becomes possible to perceive how the state border of Trianon affected the society of the border strip between the Nyírség and the Szatmár plain.
