„Unul din ultimii cavaleri ai secolului al XVII-lea”: Vasile Bainschi
”One of the last knights of the 17th century”: Vasile Bainschi

Summary/Abstract: Regarded by the contemporaries as descendent of an old noble family of Moldavian boyars, Vasile Bainschi, like many other warriors of his time, managed to combine the battlefield experience with the private life during peace time. The present study represents a brief prosopographic endeavour in which, with the help of historical sources that survived the centuries, we tried to reveal the life and activity of serdar Vasile Bainschi – genealogical aspects decisive for his career, his preoccupations and military and political evolution, as well as his continuous quest to enrich his estate wealth by different means.
