Abstracts

EN

The study offers a look at the budget of the city of Bratislava in the first half of the 16th century on the basis of records from two financial years - 1528-29 and 1540-41 - which give detailed information on the income and spending of the city. These two years provide a very good illustration of the economic duties of one of the most important cities in the Kingdom of Hungary, and of the new challenges as a result of the drastic changes in the situation in the country, with which the city authorities and citizens had to deal. The importance of this city is increased by the fact that it was precisely in this period that it became the administrative centre for the part of the Kingdom of Hungary, that came under the rule of the Habsburg government. In this period of about ten years, it is possible to trace very clearly the central impact of developments in the whole state on the budget of the city. By means of analysing the 'replies' to the appeals in the given period (raising of expenditure), it is possible to obtain a picture of the economic potential of the Bratislava burghers.
