Marguerite of Angouleme and the problems of Renaissance religious dissent

The article is devoted to the religious pursuit of Marguerite of Angouleme. Analyzing the creative legacy of the Duchess, her extensive correspondence with representatives of the reformation movement, the author convincingly proves that, despite the fact that Marguerite was the patroness of the reformation movement in France, and she was described as having religious and ethical searches characteristic of many representatives of the Renaissance era, she did not completely break with the Catholic faith, remaining a transitional figure in spiritual terms.

Die Wittenbergisch Nachtigall gegen den Löwen in Rom

The Protestant polemic of the 16th century against the Roman Church and especially the papacy is generally considered more as an aspect of theological affront than as a fundamental communicative mode of the Reformation movement. Using the example of Hans Sachs’s poem ›The Wittenberg Nightingale‹ of 1523, which has contributed significantly to the literarization and popularization of the figure of the reformer and his teachings, the present article discusses the connection between Protestant Luther stylization, anti-Roman invectives and the formation of the Reformation movement. Their key messages, in their confrontational exclusiveness to the alleged falsification of the Christian doctrine by the papacy, turn out to be central elements of a fundamentally invective communication that establishes the new, Protestant doctrine.

IVAN PROKHANOV'S IDEAS OF SPIRITUAL REFORMATION AND THE POTENTIAL OF THEIR APPLICATION IN POSTMODERN CONDITIONS

The Reformation movement, led by Prokhanov, swept across Russia and even went beyond its borders. The wave of religious reformation rose most strongly against the background of great social upheavals. The main reasons for the emergence and origin of the evangelical movement described in the article testify to the inevitability of the changes that awaited society. It can be unequivocally stated that the evangelical movement influenced all spheres of life of the people of that period. Despite the fact that for obvious reasons Ivan Prokhanov failed to complete his grand reform project, the appeal to his theological heritage provides an opportunity not only to draw from it valuable information for building a modern Ukrainian state on Christian principles, but also gives us an instructive example of how in order to implement evangelical principles, he used all his natural gifts – theologian, preacher, poet, writer and translator, human rights activist, religious and public figure, evangelical reformer. His experience as a theologian-practitioner can be used to provide a clearly practical orientation to Ukrainian theology, which has confidently embarked on the path of reform and development.

Adam Bohorič, Slovenci in Slovani v predgovoru Arcticae horulae v evropskem kontekstu

Adam Bohorič, Slovenes and Slavs in the Preface to Arcticae horulae in the European Context The paper is dedicated to Adam Bohorič and his view of the Slavic world in the introduction to the grammar Arcticae horulae—Free Winter Hours, based on the translation and edition by Jože Toporišič from 1987. Adam Bohorič was connected with the Reformation movement in German lands, especially with Wittenberg, where he studied and where his grammar, as well as Dalmatin’s translation of the Bible, was printed. Bohorič could observe German developments in the sphere of religious reformation, as well as their efforts concerning language, where the Germans were catching up with the Romance languages. Important German grammars were published in the 1570s, just a few years before Bohorič’s grammar, which shows that he caught up with his contemporaries and it could no longer be said that Slovenes were behind the times. Although many of Bohorič’s views on the Slavic world are no longer shared today, one should bear in mind that they were based on the knowledge of the time in the context of a Renaissance humanistic view of the past. Keywords: Bohorič, grammar, Slovenes, Protestantism

Problems with the Interpretation of the “Slovak Reformation”

Structural problems of communities affected by the “Slovak Reformation,” issues with accepting the situation or simply the relationships among various cultural phenomena, like literacy or language policies, are key aspects in studying the impact of the Reformation in Hungary, especially with respect to Slovaks. Information gathered from the Reformation had a direct and long-lasting impact on the formation of vernacular language, as well as on the search for and the construction of an ethnic identity. Searching for evidence left by the Slovak presence in the Reformation movement thus presents challenging though notable problems for Slovak historiography. The confessional division and its political as well as cultural implications have evoked long-lasting discussions among historians as well as politicians. This study focuses on the most relevant issues within these processes.
