The Costs of the Fights for Freedom in Nagyvárad in the 18th Century
|
| Tartalmi leírás: |
The useless scuffles of the city of Nagyvárad with its squires, its bishop and chapter, as well as the pointless, inefficient litigations at the legislatures for the hoped-for result – the attainment of the status of the free royal city – lasted for more than a century, until the middle of the 19th century. The city board off ered large amounts of money for the actions launched with the intention to quest for the archives
sources of the franchise of the city and for the allowance of the mediators (agents) operating besides the state institutions, for the periodical contacting of its occasional (supposed or real) helpers and their supply with “discreet gifts” after the established custom of the time, not last the “courting” of the palace of Schönbrunn and the mostly resultless visitings of its antechambers. In the subsisting archives of the city about one and a half dozen 18th-century sources were identifi ed which contain information related to the accounting of the costs of these delegations, recording and documenting the circumstances of the contemporary travels and their costs as fi rst-hand sources, the fi nantial consequences of these mostly resultless days spent by the city deputies in Wien, Budapest, Bratislava or Kolozsmonostor, as well as the matter of these presents and “discreet gifts”.
