Konfessionsbildung und Einheitsbestrebungen im Königreich Ungarn zur Regierungszeit Ferdinands I.

ABSTRACT

The question of Catholicity unites the three problems dealt with in this essay. Johannes Honterus’s concept of Reformation can be understood above all against the background of the Roman Catholic way of speaking about renewal and efforts at integration. The question of the dating of the Upper Hungarian “Confessio Pentapolitana” is posed anew; its alleged author, Leonhard Stöckel, could not possibly have written the confession of the Five-City Federation that was submitted in 1549. The emergence of this confessional text is illuminated on the basis of the meetings of the Hungarian Diet. It is possible that the “Confessio Pentapolitana,” which Hungarian authorities did not recognize or consent to during the period under study, was at most tolerated for tactical reasons.
