George Szatmári de Alsóborsa{{sfn|Markó|2006|p=328}} ({{lang-hu|alsóborsai Szatmári György}}; {{circa}} 1457 – 7 April 1524) was a prominent prelate in the Kingdom of Hungary. He was Bishop of Veszprém from 1499 to 1501, of Várad (present-day Oradea in Romania) from 1501 to 1505, of Pécs from 1505 to 1522, and Archbishop of Esztergom from 1522 to his death.

Early life

George Szatmári was born around 1457 into a wealthy burgher family of German origin in Kassa (present-day Košice in Slovakia).{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|pp=136–137}}{{sfn|Juhász-Ormsby|2012|p=9}} He was the youngest (third) son of the merchant Stephen Szatmári and his wife, Anna, who was also from a family of burghers of Kassa.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=136}} After his father died in 1464, George was placed under the guardianship of his uncle, Francis Szatmári, the richest citizen of Kassa, who was the mayor of the town in 1477.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=136}}{{sfn|Farbaky|2009|p=274}} The Szatmáris had dealings with the Thurzós, an influential family of merchants, which facilitated George's career.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=136}} His family was granted nobility by Matthias Corvinus.{{sfn|Borián|2003|p=232}}

George's wealth enabled him to finance his studies.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}} He studied at the University of Kraków from 1477 to 1481.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}} He returned to Hungary as Bachelor of Arts.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}} He knew Filippo Beroaldo, a professor at the University of Bologna, which implies that he also studied at Bologna.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}} Following his uncle's example, he financed the enlargement of the St. Michael chapel in Kassa.{{sfn|Farbaky|2009|p=274}}

He started his career at the Royal Chancellery in the early 1490s.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}} He became a close assistant of the head of the chancellery, Thomas Bakócz.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} George was made archivist in 1493, and he became one of the two royal secretaries in 1494.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}}{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} He also received prebends (or ecclesiastic benefices).{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}} He was canon at the Székesfehérvár Chapter and provost of the St. Nicholas collegiate chapter in the same town in 1495.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}} He was made provost of the Transylvanian Chapter in 1497.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}}

Career

At the demand of the Diet of Hungary, Vladislaus II of Hungary, take the royal seals from Thomas Bakócz in 1497.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} Bakócz retained the title of arch-chancellor, but Szatmári took charge of the Royal Chancellery.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} He became the provost of the Óbuda Chapter in 1498 or 1499.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}} Although he had not been ordained priest, Vladislaus made him bishop of Veszprém and provost of the Budafelhévíz Chapter in 1499.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}} The Holy See confirmed his appointment in April 1500, also authorizing him to postpone his consecration.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}} In 1500, the Diet passed a decree that declared that no one, but Szatmári was entitled to hold more than one ecclesiastic offices in the Kingdom of Hungary.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}}

The king assigned him to the bishopric of Várad in 1501.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}} The Holy See confirmed the transfer in February 1502.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}} Vladislaus made Szatmári secret chancellor in 1503.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} Szatmári and Bakócz were the most influential figures of the government.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} They closely cooperated to diminish the influence of the Diet on state administration.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=353}} The wealthy John Zápolya was his chief opponent.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}} The 1505 Diet passed a resolution that prohibited the election of a foreign king after Vladislaus's dead, although Szatmári and his allies had openly opposed the decision.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}}{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=361}} Instead of accepting the resolution, Szatmári promoted a rapprochement between Vladislaus and Maximilian of Habsburg, King of the Romans.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=137}}

After Sigismund Ernuszt, Bishop of Pécs, was murdered by his retainers in summer 1505, Vladislaus assigned Szatmári to the bishopric of Pécs.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}} Pope Julius II confirmed the king's decision on 19 December 1505.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}} After being ordained priest, Szatmári held his first mass in the St. Elisabeth Cathedral in Kassa in autumn 1506.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}} He appointed Martin Atádi, who was the titular Bishop of Augustopolis, his coadjutor bishop.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=139}}

Szatmári set up several building projects in Pécs.{{sfn|Farbaky|2009|p=274}} A church tabernacle made of red marble was placed in the cathedral; the episcopal palace was enlarged with a Renaissance level and an open staircase; and a new villa was built on the Tettye hill.{{sfn|Farbaky|2009|p=274}} The chapter house, which was rebuilt during his tenure in Renaissance style, was named Domus Sakmariana after him.{{sfn|Farbaky|2009|p=274}} He held conferences with the participation of prominent Humanist scholars, including Girolamo Balbi (who was a friend of Erasmus of Rotterdam), and Nicholas Oláh.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=140}} Szatmári sponsored the publication of the poems of Janus Pannonius, who had been the bishop of Pécs from 1459 to 1472.{{sfn|Borián|2003|p=232}}{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|pp=128, 140}} He also financed the release of works by ancient classical authors, such as Cicero.{{sfn|Borián|2003|p=232}}

John Zápolya played a preeminent role in crushing the rebellion of the Hungarian peasants in 1514.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=364}} Taking advantage of his popularity among the noblemen, John Zápolya achieved that Szatmári was dismissed and Gregory Frankopan, Archbishop of Kalocsa, was made chancellor.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=364}} To reduce Zápolya's influence, Szatmári began to bring about a reconciliation between Vladislaus II, Vladislaus's brother, Sigismund of Poland, and Maximilian of Habsburg.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=365}} The three monarchs met at Vienna and signed a treaty on 19 July 1515.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=365}} Vladislaus's son, Louis, married Maximilian's granddaughter, Mary, and Vladislaus's daughter, Anne, was promised to marry to either Maximilian or his grandson, Ferdinand.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=365}} Taking advantage of his participation at the conference, Szatmári visited the University of Vienna.{{sfn|Juhász-Ormsby|2012|p=9}} Benedict Chelidonius dedicated his Voluptatis cum Virtute disceptatio ("Debate of Desire and Virtue") to Szatmári.{{sfn|Juhász-Ormsby|2012|pp=15–16}}

Vladislaus died on 13 March 1516.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=365}} His son, the ten-year-old Louis succeeded him.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=365}} His tutors, George, Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach, and John Bornemissza, Castellan of Buda, were supporters of a pro-Habsburg policy.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=365}} Gregory Frankopan was dismissed and Szatmári was again made secret chancellor.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=366}} Ladislaus Szalkai, Bishop of Vác, was also appointed chancellor in 1517, but Szatmári remained the most influential among the three chancellors.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}}{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=366}} Geronimo Balbi, who stayed in Buda, concluded that Szatmári was "the master of all issues" in the kingdom.{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=366}} He could even persuade the Diet to elect his ally, Stephen Báthori, Palatine of Hungary against John Zápolya in 1519.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=138}}{{sfn|Engel|2001|p=366}}

Szatmári succeeded Thomas Bakócz as arch-chancellor in June 1521.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=140}} He was also made Archbishop of Esztergom in spring 1522.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=140}} With the support of Maximilian of Habsburg, he tried to achieve his appointment as cardinal and papal legate.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=140}} He died in Buda on 7 April 1524.{{sfn|Fedeles|2009|p=140}} He was buried in Esztergom.{{sfn|Borián|2003|p=233}}
