Abstract

            The 650^th anniversary of the foundation of the first Hungarian university occasioned various events and publications in 2017, among which the book reviewed now. The collective volume presents the proceedings of an international conference with the same title, organized during the 12^th and 13^th October 2017 by the University Library of Pécs and the Centre for Learning of the same university, together with the Department of Medieval and Early Modern History of the Faculty of Humanities and the University of Pécs Archives. The colloquium managed to create a dialogue between Hungarian researchers and academics from Switzerland, Austria, Romania, Poland and Slovakia.
