The Princes of Transylvania in the Thirty Years War

This collection of essays presents various aspects of a group of participants in the Thirty Years War which hitherto received only cursory attention in international research context: the princes of Transylvania. Experts of the specific fields present up-to-date summaries as well as fresh results on questions of military history, diplomatic contacts, war finances, media history and discourses in political communication related to the activities of G bor Bethlen and Gy rgy R k czi I. Special attention is dedicated to the peculiar characteristic of the Transylvanian involvement in the great European conflict - the Ottoman threat, which derived from the fact that the principality was one of the sultan's Christian tributaries.
