Abstracts

EN

The study examines motives of salvation, which were noticed in charters of foundations of Benedictine monasteries, later in charters that recorded donations for monks of these monasteries in medieval Kingdom of Hungary from the 11th to 13th century. In the work, I deal with textual variants that concern the motives of redemption of the donor´s souls, the content of devout donations and finally the historical background and circumstances under which the rulers, clergy and nobility came to a decision to endow monasteries. Rather generally formulated motives of salvation appear in less numerous sources from the 11th century followed by data on the content of donations. Since the beginning of the 12th century, the sources have given an insight into the broader historical context of formation of these pious motives.
