Răscoala secuilor şi reforma guvernamentală pentru apărarea graniţelor de sud (1492–1493)

  • Subiect: „The aim of this study is to explain the reasons of the governmental reform, which took place in January 1493, when Hungarian and Bohemian King Wladislaw II and his court decided to replace the leading dignitaries of the southern border defence system of the Hungarian Kingdom appointed by King Matthias (or at least reduce their power by appointing a partner for every dignitary). At first he launched an extensive political campaign against Stephen Bátori, Voivode of Transylvania, who was the most powerful baron of the kingdom and the hero of the wars of succession (1490–1492). The official explanation of the royal propaganda – invoking the libel of the Szeklers – was that Bátori often abused his power: the author therefore presents the events of Bátori’s campaign against the Szeklers (in autumn 1492). Wladislaw appointed two new voivodes, then he dismissed the Ban of Slavonia, too. According to a letter issued in May 1493, he tried to reduce the power of Paul Kinizsi, comes of Temes and general captain of the Lower Parts as well. The author assumes that a league of barons led by Bátori, then Palatine Stephen Szapolyai managed to avoid this attempt. Wladislaw could overcome this league of barons only after the death of Kinizsi in 1494/1495.”
