    Admiral De Ruyter in Hungarian memory
    (2026-01-07) Pusztai, Gábor
    Michiel de Ruyter is a Dutch national hero. He is respected in Hungary as the liberator of the Protestant galley slaves. Since 1895, his name can also be read on the memorial behind the Great Church of Debrecen. De Ruyter has appeared in various forms in Hungarian memory during the centuries: either as a fearless soldier, a faithful Christian or as a symbol of reconciliation. His memory keeps changing but his spirit keeps living on in Hungarian memory.

    De Hongaarse galeislaaf-predikanten en Nederland
    (2026-01-07) Bujtás, László Zsigmond
    The Hungarian protestant ministers who had been baselessly charged in 1673 and 1674 by a special court at Pressburg with rebellion, treason and defamation of the Catholic Church were sentenced to death. Those who converted to Catholicism or promised to leave the country could escape. Those who persisted were sold at Naples to Spanish galleys as slaves. The ministers asked help, among others, from the Netherlands. As a result of efforts of many persons the States General instructed in November 1675 admiral Michiel de Ruyter to liberate the galley slaves. After their liberation in February 1676, they were in exile in Zürich. Eight of them visited the Netherlands in the autumn of that year to try to get diplomatic and financial support so that they could return to Hungary in order to continue their ministry. The Netherlands helped them a lot in both areas. Lots of books dealt with their story in the 17th and 18th centuries in the Netherlands. Later they became more and more part of the memory place ‘Michiel de Ruyter’.

    Die Erinnerungsgeschichte der Verfolgung ungarischer Galeerensklaven protestantischen Bekenntnisses im Deutschland des 18. Jahrhunderts
    (2026-01-07) Verók, Attila
    In the long 18th century described as the period of “peaceful Re-Catholicization” or “Catholic Restoration” in the writings about the ecclesiastical history of different congregations, the Roman Catholic Church used every means to push Protestants into the background and to render their lives impossible. As a result of intensified ReCatholicization, diverse means were employed to confront the communities and individuals, from the occupation of churches or schools and collective punishments, through the public humiliation and terrorization of individuals, to bloody torture and the annihilation of their livelihood. The partly violent spreading of Catholicism resulted in many controversial cases in the Carpathian Basin, which were reported on many publications in Western Europe. The examination of the early printed books in the Lutheran collection of books in Halle (Franckesche Stiftung) has brought numerous relevant texts from a Hungarian perspective to the surface, which allow studying the danger-fraught life circumstances of Protestants in the Carpathian Basin in the 18th century through the eyes of an external observer.

    Die neueren Quellen von Persecutio Hungaricae
    (2026-01-07) Csorba, Dávid
    The study focuses on the history and historiography of the Hungarian Galley Slaves. The publication of their story by the Western European press made a huge impact on international Calvinism. In Hungary it went the opposite way, mainly for historical reasons. A manuscript and its large amount of copies built a great legacy, thanks to the historical research for the original documents (mentioned in texts by Bálint Kocsi Csergő and Ferenc Otrokocsi Fóris) between the 17th and 20th century. Thus, the attitude of the Galley Slaves indeed became a decisive image of Hungarian, reformed identity.

    High Treason Lawsuits against Protestant Preachers and Teachers (1674)
    (2026-01-07) S. Varga, Katalin
    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, false arguments and false evidence, intended to frame a view on Protestants and to take control over on a wide range of Protestant society. My aim is to show how a conspiracy by seemingly lawful means was managed step by step.

    The Impact of Péter Bod’s Translation of a Text about Galley Slaves
    (2026-01-07) Gudor, Kund Botond
    Within his work on Protestant church history, Péter Bod’s translation of the galley slaves’ history was one of those 18th century Protestant historiographical approaches, which bound the image of the struggling Church to personal sacrifice for the true faith. In 1738, he translated Bálint Kocsi Csergő’s Narratio brevis, i.e. the history of the galley slaves’ suffering, into Hungarian, entitled Siege of a House Built on a Rock. Although it was a manuscript, it became a bestseller copied and read all over the Carpathian Basin. Later, the image of the Protestant martyr was identified with what he delineated in his works God’s heroic Holy Mother Church and St. Heortocrat, namely, a martyr is an individual who, in the midst of persecutions and fleeing, does not grow weary in being of use for the benefit of his nation, his Church, the common good. In his works on church history, many inventories of suffering from the 16th and 17th centuries demonstrate his utilitarian view of martyrdom. The secularized view of martyrdom identifies the notion of suffering for religion with the struggle that he himself fought against the Habsburg censorship. The 17th and18th century Protestant history of suffering turned into an intellectual commitment that is unfolding in the midst of difficulties and preserves our nationhood, and can be formed along the jus and bonum publicum (public good, and public law).

    Een dakloos gedenkteken voor Michiel de Ruyter
    (2026-01-07) Doedens, Jaap
    Almost unbeknownst to virtually anyone, the fragments of a monument commemorating the liberation of galley slaves by Michiel de Ruyter lay for years in the parking garage of the Reformed Theological Seminary in Pápa. Originally, this memorial stood in the courtyard of the military academy, the Zrínyi Miklós Nemzetvédelmi Egyetem (Miklós Zrínyi Defense University) on Üllői Street in Budapest. It was erected in 2002 to commemorate the liberation of the Hungarian ministers who had been sentenced to the galleys and were freed by Michiel de Ruyter in Naples in 1676. The monument was designed and created by Colonel Dr. Lajos Berek, who was also the rector of that university. When this military academy moved to the campus on the Hungária ring road in 2008, the old building was sold. The monument was taken down. The Bolyai János Honvéd Alapítvány (János Bolyai Defense Foundation) donated the memorial to the Protestáns Tábori Püspökség (Protestant Military Diocese). The new owner would look for a new location for the statue. Since there was no place to put it up again at that time, they looked for a place where it could be stored “temporarily.” That place was the parking garage of the Reformed Theological Seminary in Pápa.

    Gedenktafeln für die Galeerensklaven des Reformierten Kollegiums Sárospatak
    (2026-01-07) Pálfi, Edina
    Sárospatak is a prominent academic town in eastern Hungary, where three memorial plaques were unveiled between 1936 and 1939 in memory of the galley slaves. The college itself is a place of remembrance, representing 500 years of Protestant culture. There are memorial plaques here to the school’s patrons, former teachers, scholars, and the many traumas of the 20th century (World War I and II, Trianon, the Gulag camps). It is therefore surprising that, among the eight other memorial plaques located at the entrance, three plaques commemorate the galley slaves. The study explores the context of their creation, the idea, the application, and the unveiling, and interprets the phenomenon. The history of galley slavery contains not only religious but also national elements of memory, and was suitable for depicting the world of great cataclysms and tragedies in every age, as well as for analogically showing the ways of escaping from them.

    Het maken en kraken van nationale helden in Nederland: Michiel de Ruyter als zeeheld, koopman, zeeschurk en letterheld
    (2026-01-07) Stronks, Els
    The article seeks to encourage reflection about the creation and development of a cult status in Dutch culture: in the Dutch past, but also in the present. It focuses on the case of Michiel de Ruyter (1607–1676). He has long been represented as ‘zeeheld’ (naval hero), but his status as hero is currently under scrutiny in the Netherlands. The article dissects cultural representations of De Ruyter to explain why he turned from a typical exponent of the seventeenth century ‘zeehelden’ into a – criticized – exponent of the Dutch merchant. It also briefly explores the possibility of yet another turn in the way De Ruyter is memorized culturally in the Netherlands. Could the memory of De Ruyter, and more in particular his linguistic and literary skills, serve as a shield against the growing illiteracy in the Netherlands?

    Contribution to the Cantatas on the Anniversary of the Galley Slaves’ Liberation
    (2026-01-07) Berkesi, Sándor
    New Hungarian choral works were born on another jubilee, i.e., on the 300th anniversary of the Protestant galley slaves’ liberation. They are the ‘little sisters’ of the oratorio Budavári Te Deum, these cantatas are in the order of their completion: Sándor Szokolay: Cantata to the Memory of the Galley Slaves, Lajos Vass: Furor Bestiae, Zoltán Gárdonyi: Memento. Composers use the text written by Ferenc Otrokocsi Fóris and other galley slaves who records the story of his deportation, sufferings and liberation. The last two pieces of music were composed in October 1975 and dedicated to the choir ‘Kántus’ of the Reformed College of Debrecen. Their world premiere took place on 11 February 1976 in the Reformed Great Church in Debrecen, in the framework of festivities dedicated to the anniversary of the liberation of the galley slaves, the conductor was the writer of this article.

    Short films remembering the Galley Slaves
    (2026-01-07) Fekete, Ágnes
    In the years of 2020–2021 I made a few short films with some people – one tourist organizer and four preachers – who have found it important to preserve the memory of Hungarian galley slaves. In this report, I would like to show the responsibility, respect and love that the commemorators had for their ancestors, which spirit of this activity was also radiated to me.

    De Vlaamse Beweging en de patstelling van het Nederlands in de publieke overheid en het onderwijs in het jonge België (1830–1850)
    (2023-10-30) Fabry, Jan
    Although the freedom of language use was anchored in the Belgian Constitution of 1831, in practice it led to almost complete Frenchification of public life, because civil servants could choose their own language. Dutch thus became the language of the countryside and the lower classes. Secondary and higher education were exclusively French speaking. The Flemish Movement came into being as a reaction to this. Cultural associations were founded and standards for Dutch language established. A petition in 1840 revealed the extent of the problem – the Flemish Movement demanded language equality and the establishment of a Flemish Academy. Although there was partial success in 1850 (Dutchification of primary and secondary education in Flanders), the petition also provoked a hostile reaction among French speakers who accused the Flemings of antibelgitude. The Flemish Movement therefore issued a pro-Belgian manifesto. But the government remained French speaking, so there was a stalemate.

    Hoe de Nederlandse juffers met liefde omgingen: De wereld van de gevoelens in Historie van mejuffrouw Sara Burgerhart (1782) van Elisabeth Wolff en Agatha Deken
    (2023-10-30) Urbaniak, Jan
    Love played an important role in Wolff and Deken’s 18th-century bestseller, The History of Miss Sara Burgerhart. The attitude to the feelings allowed the reader to get to know the novel’s characters thoroughly. That how they talked about love and made love helped in the reconstruction of their character drawing. Sara – the title character of the novel – went through a development that also changed her conception of love: from the irresponsible teenager who enjoyed the company of various, sometimes rowdy boys, she gradually became an ideal wife and mother, with whom the sincere love prevailed. In this contribution, several models of love in the Sara Burgerhart epistolary novel were contrasted: the French-tinted, sentimentally colored libertine love game with the calm, reasoned feelings in the Dutch way. The result of such contradiction is easy to guess.

    Motivating Factors in Foreign Volunteering: Tibor Péchy’s Enlistment in the Anglo-Boer War
    (2023-10-30) Szabó-Zsoldos, Gábor
    Twelve Hungarian volunteers have been identified so far among the 2,500 pro-Boer foreign volunteers who were ready to sacrifice their lives in the war between the Boer republics and the British Empire (1899–1902). The overwhelming majority of these volunteers travelled to South Africa to join the commandos of the Boers following the escalation of the conflict. Tibor Péchy was one of the Hungarian combatants, but in contrast with the other Hungarian volunteers, he had been living in South Africa since 1896. This makes him a special Hungarian participant of the Anglo-Boer War. The present paper analyses the motivating factors behind Péchy’s enlistment with the Boers.

    Het dagboek en alba amicorum van Sámuel Cseh-Szombathy
    (2023-10-30) Bozzay, Réka
    In this paper I have analysed the itinerary of Sámuel Cseh-Szombathy, a former student of the Reformed College of Debrecen. After having finished his studies in Göttingen and Vienna, he started with a journey in 1790 through Southern German cities, the Dutch Republic, England and finally France. During his journey he wrote an itinerary where he made a record of his costs and what he as a medical doctor found interesting: hospitals, madhouses, natural history collections and of course the most important medical personalities of his time. My main questions are: How unique is this itinerary and how well does it fit in the Hungarian tradition of itineraries of the Early Modern Time?
