| Title | Enmity,Dispute, and Noble Community in the Late Medieval Kingdom of POland: Evidence of the Rus' palatinate, 15th-begining of 16th centuries |
| Summary | I investigate nobles’ enmity and dispute in late medieval Poland. I start with the premise that enmity and dispute played key roles in shaping the ethos and identity of member’s of the noble estate. In my approach to noble enmity I view violence and litigation as two major ways to redress wrongs and restore a shaken balance of justice in interpersonal relationships. The main aim of the investigation is to approach noble enmity and conflict as complex social phenomena, interpreting them as points of intersection of different aspects of social reality, including structures of governance and justice, the social and family network, power relations, statute law, mental attitudes and so on. |
