Abstract

The article presents the problem of the reception of the Polish-Lithuanian institutions in Moldova of the first Mohyla Hospodars (1595-1611). This period was marked by both cooperation and conflicts between the Principality of Moldavia and the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Sigismund III and Jan Zamoyski tried to limit the right of the Moldovan rulers to punish treason by death, in order to form a social group of Moldovans supporting the rapprochement of the Principality with the Crown. For this purpose, they used the institution of Polish nobility and the suzerainty of the Polish king over the Principality. Also, the article examines the attitude of Moldovan Hospodars and boyars towards the reception of these Polish-Lithuanian institutional loans.
