The younger generation is also represented, as another intention of the editors is to give them a possibility to present the results of their researches. Both main sections are structured in chronological order, although the topics are various: the volume starts with the analysis of a very important diplomatic event of the early eleventh century. It continues with three studies dealing with the papacy in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries. They show three different aspects: the fight against heresy in Bosnia, the social network of the first Hungarian cardinal and a summary of the characteristics of the relations of Hungary’s first Angevin ruler, King Charles I and the popes in the first half of the fourteenth century. The section’s last study examines the question of the toll exemption of the citizen of Pozsony (Bratislava, Slovakia) during the fourteenth and early fifteenth centuries, especially the problem of the validity and confirmation of the privileges. The section of the contributions starts with a particular topic: the interconnection of the economy and the military activities in the case of Novgorod during the twelfth century. After that, we can learn about the importance of the trial by poison in the representation of the Luxembourg dynasty. Then, leaving the medieval times, we enter into the early modern period. First comes a contribution dealing with the attitude of different German humanists towards converted Jews by means of the so-called Battle of Books. Last but not least a contribution presents the work of a mostly forgotten political writer, Edward Forset dealing with a very popular topic of the early seventeenth century, the sovereignty and the analogy between natural and politic body. In the section of book reviews researchers and young scholars provide reviews about Hungarian books connected to our Department and also French works considered to be worthy of attention. The present issue also offers a short database with pictures of the publications related to our institution since 1998 (Related Publications) and the table of contents of the previous issues as well.
