The Nobility in the Towns – A Natural Process or a Negative Phenomenon?

H. Németh, István

The text deals with the coexistence of two social classes with different social and legal status – the nobility and burghers within the context of the early medieval towns in the Kingdom of Hungary.

At the same time, the author highlights the more complex and structured social and legal differentiation of noble representatives who lived in towns.
