„Cartea Iuliei Hossu debutează printr-un prim capitol dens teoretic, ce ar putea ține locul unei lucrări de sine stătătoare asupra istoriei problematicii pe care urmează să o elaboreze. Într-un prim subcapitol sunt analizate 1.1. Rudenia – scurt istoric al conceptului, cu referințe aproape numai străine, 1.2. Categoriile rudeniei, 1.3. Terminologia rudeniei, după care autoarea dezbate viziunea evoluționistă a părintelui acestui domeniu al antropologiei, Lewis H. Morgan, cu a sa celebră Sisteme de consangvinitate şi de alianţă în familia umană, din 1870, urmată de analizarea conceptelor lui W.H. R. Rivers, expuse într-o lucrare din 1915. Urmează perspectiva lui K. B. Malinowski cu viziunea funcționalistă și cea a lui Alfred Reginald Radcliffe-Brown, dezvoltată în două subcapitole. Nu în ultimul rând, sunt abordate și viziunile lui Claude Lévi-Strauss și a structuralistului David Schneider, criticul sistemelor clasice și al descendenților acestora.” (Ion Cuceu din Prefață)

“[...] The research started from the premise that at least some of the wall paintings reflect the special social, political, and religious situation of the donors as knezes and Orthodox (Greek-rite) Christians in the Hungarian kingdom. Topics have been selected from the paintings of eight churches: the church of St. George in Streisângeorgiu (Hu. Sztrigyszentgyörgy), the church of the Dormition of the Virgin in Strei (Hu. Zeykfalva), the church of St. Nicholas in Densuș (Hu. Demsus), the church of St. Nicholas in Leșnic (Hu. Lesnyek/Lesnek), the Reformed church in Sântămăria Orlea (Hu. Őraljaboldogfalva), the church of the Dormition of the Virgin in Crișcior (Hu. Kristyor), the church of St. Nicholas in Ribița (Hu. Ribice), and the church of the Dormition of the Virgin in Hălmagiu (Hu. Nagyhalmágy). The churches were situated in two neighboring medieval counties – Hunyad, in the Transylvanian voivodate, and Zaránd – and the paintings date from the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries. The investigation is limited to Hunyad and Zaránd Counties, where the main body of medieval wall paintings in Orthodox churches has been preserved. In addition, the historical background of the donors is comparable in both regions. The pictorial subjects that have been selected for research are interpreted in relation to their social, political, and religious context. The study of the donor portraits, military saints, holy kings of Hungary, and the Exaltation of the Holy Cross focuses on their relevance for the social and political life of the knezes. The study of the paintings in the sanctuaries mainly sheds light on aspects of the religious life of the donors or local communities. The images are analyzed taking into account the use and meaning of their subjects in Eastern and Western, particularly Hungarian, painting, and the available information regarding their historical context. While indeed the pictorial message may be understood only through its historical background, the paintings themselves can also suggest new directions for research or favor a particular interpretation suggested by other types of sources.” from Introduction
