“[A könyv] segítségével még mélyrehatóbban tárul fel előttünk a kelet-középeurópai régió középkori története, sőt a térség államainak egyedi vonásairól, az itt regnáló dinasztiák uralkodásának különböző szegmenseiről is részletesebb képet kaphatunk.”
“[This book] helps us gain deeper insight into the medieval history of the Central and Eastern European region, as well as a more detailed picture of the unique features of this region’s states and the different aspects of the dynasties that ruled there.” – Ignácz Ágoston, University of Pécs, in: Aetas 39/2 (2024), p. 216.

“Overall, this book will be of great use to scholars and graduate students seeking to engage their respective fields of expertise with potential avenues of comparative research. The efforts of the authors and editors deserve the highest praise with respect to their willingness to open this rich field of research in medieval studies to a wider audience.” – Gregory Leighton, Nicolaus Copernicus University, in: Austrian History Yearbook 55 (2024), p. 456.

“Insgesamt präsentieren die beiden Hg. ein sehr vielschichtiges Panorama, welches die Bedeutung des (ost-)mitteleuropäischen Raums für die Diskussion dieser zentralen Forschungsfragen eindrucksvoll herausstellt und damit Impulse für eine gesamteuropäische Diskussion bereit­stellt.” – Jürgen Heyde, in: Deutsches Archiv für Erforschung des Mittelalters 79/1 (2023), pp. 357-358.

“The papers collected in the volume offer a breadth of insights into the diverse aspects of rulership in East-Central Europe [...] It is my hope that this excellent contribution will further facilitate discussion about medieval rulership in East-Central Europe both in the region itself and in anglophone academic discourse.” – Michal Machalski, Central European University, in: Historical Studies on Central Europe 2/2 (2022), p. 348.
