High Treason Lawsuits against Protestant Preachers and Teachers (1674)
Abstract
The lawsuits of the 1670s have become the symbol of Protestant persecution in the historical memory of Hungary. This study focuses on illustrating the lawsuit topics, falsearguments and false evidence, intended to frame a view on Protestants and to takecontrol over on a wide range of Protestant society. My aim is to show how a conspiracyby seemingly lawful means was managed step by step.
