Abstract:
The study examines the intellectual heritage of Transylvanian Calvinism, analysing the formation of the library collection of the Protestant Theological Institute in Cluj. As the sole documentation institution for Hungarian Protestant pastoral training in Transylvania, it represents a unique cultural legacy. The library served as an essential component of Calvinist ministerial and theological education in Transylvania. The creation of the collection was influenced by financial constraints, and its growth was determined by the annual budget, community support, and donations. The library reflect

Abstract. “Who Can Find a Wise Woman?” Some Insights into the Education of the Wives of 16th-17th-Century Calvinist Priests. The paper examines the literacy of pastors’ wives during the 16th-17th centuries. For a long time, the opportunity for women to acquire literacy was only the privilege of the upper social strata, but literacy was not widespread among them either. This trend came to an end in the 17th century, for which period we also found examples of the literacy of urban citizens.

Abstract:
Abstract Kierkegaard’s texts suggest countervailing construals of the respective roles of divine and human agency in an individual’s pursuit of blessedness. Kierkegaard paradoxically suggests that the individual must depend entirely on grace for the birth and development of faith, and at the same time actively cultivate faithful dispositions and passions. But Kierkegaard did not espouse Calvinistic divine determinism, or Pelagian autonomous human agency, or the Arminian cooperation of the two. For Kierkegaard, the ostensible paradox of grace and free will is not a cognitive conundrum but is ra

Calvin’s Institutes (1536) supplied an orderly summation of Reformed doctrine, presenting false religion or idolatry as a merely human construct. Calvinist teaching on predestination encouraged zeal and activism on the part of God’s ‘elect’.
