New publication from our colleague János Ugrai
Member of our research team, János Ugrai, has published a new study in Opera Historica. The publication "Hungarian Consequences of the Toleration Missions to Bohemia and Moravia around 1800" is part of our research programme and part of a Czech history project (led by Sixtus-Bolom Kotari) on the social history of the revival of Protestant churches in Bohemia and Moravia after 1781.
Our colleague studied the repatriation of Hungarian pastors called to the Czech and Moravian lands and the study of Czech and Moravian students in Hungarian colleges. The study is related to our commitments to the history of professionalization in that the author "tested" and refined the method developed for tracking the movements of contemporary pastors in order to assess and evaluate the fate of the Czech and Moravian "missionary" pastors who returned to Hungary. With the help of this method, it will be possible in the longer term to assess the movement of Protestant pastors in Northeastern Hungary in the dimension of social mobility - and ultimately to decide whether their departure from one congregation to another can be interpreted as a rise, stagnation or decline in their career.
