Moldavia in Polish and Hungarian policy. The Meeting in Levoca in 1494

Journal Title: Codrul Cosminului - Year 2015, Vol 21, Issue 1

Abstract

This paper refers to the Polish and Hungarian policy toward Moldova at the turn of 15th and 16th centuries. Different opinions about this policy should have been exposed and discussed during the negotiations in Levoča in 1494. The scarcity and ambiguity of sources still raise questions about the real meaning of the meeting in Levoča and the John Albert’s crusade. The article tries to reconstruct this event, explaining the decisions that were made there as well as the aim of the John Albert’s crusade in 1497.
