Infos

Medieval Buda in Context discusses the character and development of Buda and its surroundings between the thirteenth and the sixteenth centuries, particularly its role as a royal center and capital city of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary. The twenty-one articles written by Hungarian and international scholars draw on a variety of primary sources: texts, both legal and literary; archaeological discoveries; architectural history; art history; and other studies of material culture. The essays also place Buda in the political, social, cultural and economic context of other contemporary central and eastern European cities. By bringing together the results of research undertaken in recent decades for an English-language readership, this volume offers new insights into urban history and the culture of Europe as a whole.Contributors are Janos M. Bak, Zoltan Bencze, Judit Benda, Istvan Draskoczy, Antonin Kalous, Istvan Kenyeres, Gabor Klaniczay, Andras Kubinyi, Jozsef Laszlovszky, Karoly Magyar, Balazs Nagy, Szilard Papp, James Plumtree, Martyn Rady, Valery Rees, Orsolya Rethelyi, Beatrix F. Romhanyi, Eniko Spekner, Peter Szabo, Katalin Szende, Andras Vadas, Andras Vegh, and Laszlo Veszpremy.
