Despre hotare, comunitate urbana si ethos nobiliar. Delimitarea teritoriala a Caransebesului in a doua jumatate a secolului al XVI-lea
Boundaries, urban community and nobility ethos. Caransebes town perambulations in the second half of 16th century

Summary/Abstract: Caransebeș is an urban centre in the highland area of Banat, a town that developed around the royal fortress mentioned in the Timiș river valley since the fourteenth century. In the 16th century, the town went through several perambulations, some of which were not known until now. The documents issued following the agreements on the boundaries of the locality, given as annexes to this study, allow us to know the geography of the urban centre and its boundaries but, at the same time, provide an insight into how the nobility of the district of Caransebeș refers to the urban community on the Timiș valley. It is about capturing some social and legal attitudes, but also a fragment of the ethos of the Banat elite category in the early medieval and modern era.
