Mozaikkockák a fejedelemség kori Kolozsvár mindennapjaiból
Mosaic Pieces of Everyday Life in Kolozsvár during the Era of the Principality

Summary/Abstract: The study examines different segments of everyday life in Kolozsvár during the 16th and 17th centuries, including leisure activities and phenomena of social interaction and communication, while regarding the city – viewed as a process in itself – not merely as a location of the discussed events, but as a place which influences citizens as well as outsiders. The discussed domains include guild life and the function of guilds in closed and characteristically self organizing communities, certain types and specific locations of pastimes and games, gossip and insult as the warrants of publicity, and the regulation of costumes.
