Reciprocal Images and Attitudes from Wallachia and Transylvania during the Epoch of Matei Basarab and the Rákóczy Princes

  • TITLU în română: Imagini reciproce şi atitudini din Ţara Românească şi Transilvania în timpul Epocii lui Matei Basarab şi a prinţilor Rákóczy
  • Subiect: In this article we intend to highlight the images and attitudes that emerged in Wallachia and Transylvania in the mid-17th century, in the context of the policy of alliance between the Wallachian Voivode Matei Basarab and the two Transylvanian Princes from the Rákóczy family. Numerous historical studies published to date have addressed the issue of the political, military and diplomatic relations between the Wallachian voivodeship and the Transylvanian principality. However, this topic has been scarcely approached from an imagological perspective. To understand the manner in which the two political partners perceived each other, as well as the environments to which they belonged, we have used a series of narrative testimonies from that period, especially chronicles, memoirs, correspondence and narrative works, which can highlight the subjective drives behind the political and the military events. The documentary sources have also not been neglected, in an attempt to outline a balanced picture of those reciprocal images and perceptions.
