Absztrakt (kivonat)
ISTVÁN PETKY FROM KIRÁLYHALMA IS THE CAPTAIN OF THE CSÍKI IN THE TRANSYLVANIAN ELITE The study presents István Petky of Királyhalom, a Székely nobleman who enjoyed the greatest period of his career in the 1650s and 1660s. As he played such an important role in Transylvanian diplomacy and military history, he is not unknown to historians. The biography I present focuses primarily on social history rather than political and military history. It presents the place and history of the Petky family in Székely Land. It examines the strategic elements of István Petky’s rise and his role in the Csík County elite. I present his family connections, the networks he was part of, and the exceptionally important role he played as one of the leaders of the Catholic elite in Székely Land and Transylvania. With regard to István Petky’s career, the study focuses primarily on how he was able to use his excellent connections to build his career, how he used marriage strategy, and how he became part of the Transylvanian national elite. In national politics, he became a member of the princely council, thus joining the national elite. Nevertheless, he remained the leader of Csíkszék until the end of his life and sought to consolidate and pass on the power he had built up primarily within Csíkszék. The vast majority of the estates he acquired remained within the Székely Land, and indeed primarily within Csíkszék. He chose his successors with great insight, based on their abilities. In doing so, he laid the foundations for the later Catholic elite of Transylvania.
