În serviciul Corvinilor: Francisc de Harazth, banus Zewreniensis. Cursus honorum (II)

  • Subiect: „Some hypotheses assert that the reign of King Matthias is also highlighted by the establishment of a social category that brought together nobles of humble origins who served the crown as soldiers, officials or direct servants of the court and king. As a result, their had a direct relationship with the king and they could gain significant benefits. In this regard the example of Severin’s ban, Francisc Haraszti is significant. His political career was linked from the beginning to his work at the royal court. The accompaniment of the king on the war theaters brought them the function of ban, which once represented a dignity of the barons.Significant is that, like the other nobles of humble origins, after the death of Matthias, Haraszti also remained a faithful of the Hunyadi clan. Without betraying his benefactor and former sovereign, the ban of Severin continued to serve his son. However, some financial misunderstandings determined him to leave Ioan Corvin’s service. The initiative was not to the liking of his senior who tried to hold him accountable. He later remained loyal to the Jagiellonian kings who offered him the fortress of Lewa and the leadership of the county of Arad, where he owned numerous properties. Due to his longevity, Haraszti was in the direct service of three kings and managed to accumulate a significant fortune as wels as obtaining the rank of baron.”
