Buzád (II) from the kindred Hahót (Hungarian: Hahót nembeli (II) Buzád; died April 1241), also known as Blessed Buzád was a Hungarian noble, the first known ban of Severin.[1]
Biography
He was born into the Buzád branch of the gens (clan) Hahót as the son of Buzád I (died in 1192).[2] His brother was Arnold I (d. around 1234). He had four sons from his unidentified wife, Buzád III, Csák I, Tristan and Lancelot.[3]
According to a non-authentic charter he served as ispán (comes) of Győr County in 1209.[4] There is no record of him receiving any official positions for the coming two decades. He functioned as ispán of Bihar County in 1222.[5] After that he was the head of Pozsony County between 1222 and 1224.[6] During that time there were emerging tensions between Andrew II of Hungary and his son, Béla. The latter rebelled against his father's rule. Buzád became a supporter of the duke, as a result he had to follow his lord into exile to Austria in 1223. After reconciliation between father and son, he returned to Hungary and became ispán of Vas County in 1225.[2]
Buzád served as ban of Severin from 1226 to c. 1232, when Béla governed Transylvania de facto independently from the king, holding the title of duke of Transylvania.[1] In 1233, he called himself "former ban" (Latin: quondam banus) in a charter, as a result former archontological and genealogical works of Hungarian historians (e. g. János Karácsonyi and Mór Wertner) referred to him as ban of Slavonia (1226–1228/9), nevertheless it is more likely that Buzád held the office of ban of Severin, because of his close relationship with Béla, and there is also reason to believe, he came into contact with the Dominican monks during that time, who were engaged in proselytizing among the Cumans.[7] Buzád served as ispán of Sopron County in 1232.[8]
Around 1233, he joined the Dominican Order, giving up his political career and forsaking all property. He lived in a monastery at Pest, Hungary, where the invading Mongols, according to the tradition, killed him before the altar in April 1241, shorty after the disastrous Battle of Mohi. He was not willing to leave behind the monastery. Buzád was beatified by the Roman Catholic Church because of his martyrdom and self-sacrifice.[2]
