Mechanics of Royal Generosity: The Gifts from the Wedding of King Matthias Corvinus and Beatrice of Aragon (1476)
Original language description
This study looks into various ways and occasions for gift exchange during the princely wedding by a close reading of two hitherto unknown gift inventories from Matthias Corvinus and Beatrice of Aragon’s nuptials (1476). Although providing very partial data, these inventories demonstrate that the wedding gifts served numerous roles: they heightened the splendour of the entire event, and they were a tool for the groom’s self-promotion and the bride’s integration into a new environment. Furthermore, the redistribution of the gifts helped the royal pair to connect with subjects, and to construct or reinforce the relationships with foreign powers.
