Summary Dávid Albert:
Jurist Intellectuals in Odorhei District at the End of the 16th
and the Beginning of the 17th Century
The author deals with the category of non-professional intellectuals of an “experimental” formation, who had gained their law-knowledge in the everyday life, not at the universities of the age. This category assured judicial assistance for the inhabitants of Odorhei District in the legal action proceedings, which were adjudged in front of the local courts of law. The “literates” or “scribes” mentioned in the minutes come from different categories of the Szekler society, especially from its lower strata.
The second part of this study comprises a list of the mentioned “scribes” in the minutes of the District’s judicial meetings, going into details about their addresses, social status, the years they were mentioned in, as well as references to their activities.
