A helytartók, Bornemissza Anna és a „tanácsi rend” kormányzati szerepe I. Apafi Mihály 1663. évi távolléte idején
The Lieutenants, Anna Bornemissza and the Governmental Role of the “Councillor Estate” During the Absence of Prince Mihály Apafi I in 1663

Summary/Abstract: The institution of lieutenancy, temporarily being in charge of the government alongside or instead of the prince, is a well known feature of the one-and-a-halfcentury long history of the Principality of Transylvania. Yet the Apafi period attracted much less attention from this perspective than the more successful periods of the Principality, despite the fact that the institution of the lieutenancy did not disappear in the last years of the independent Principality. The paper accordingly explores the governmental activities of the lieutenancy committee of 1663, as well as of Princess Anna Bornemissza and the princely council, in the absence of Prince Mihály Apafi I.
