On the Social Structure of the Kingdom of Hungary According to the Records of the Regestrum Varadinense

Lysý, Miroslav

The current paper concerns several elements of social structure as defined within the records of the Oradea Register (Regestrum Varadinense). This collection, known in the literature for almost five centuries, has been studied as a source of legal proceedings, ordeals or substantive law of the high Middle Ages in the Kingdom of Hungary. It was later explored as a source of topography, personal names and Hungarian and Slavic elements in medieval Latin.
