THE LIFE AND DEATH OF JOANNES KESSER
Zdenko Balog
Sažetak
Joannes Kesser was the first town judge of the United Gornji and Donji Križevac since 1752. Several years before that, he exercised his duties as a town judge in Donji Križevac, along with other city and county duties until he died in 1779. His life is
heavily documented by various documents, notes in birth records, as well as by reviews from contemporary chroniclers. He died without direct heirs and a will, so the management of his assets and settlement of debts fell to the state treasury, which on this occasion listed the said assets as well as the debts. The following study tries to reconstruct the life of this important official in the history of Križevci through historical materials. Through the management of his assets, an important insight into the material culture of the middle aristocracy in Croatia of the ‘gallant century’ will be presented.
