The History of the Lutheran Congregation of Augustan Confession, in Bratislava
Schrödl József: A Pozsonyi Ág. Hitv. Ev. Egyházközség Története
|
The book of József Schrödl, entitled: ?The History of the Aug. Conf. Lutheran Congregation in Bratislava? issued in 1906 in Bratislava, being in this large city a strong tendency in those times towards becoming more and more Hungarian. The Protestant inhabitants of Hungarian, German and Slovak nationality of Bratislava (Pressburg, Prespork) insisted on their evangelical faith throughout centuries, even if the counter-reformation had applied the most cruel methods in the course of the centuries. The book gives a historical summary of the history of the town Bratislava, the first signs of the Reformation, the Compromize-Catholicism, about the persecutions, the confiscation of churches, the decade of mourning, and then about the period after the edict of tolerance, issued by king and emperor József II. The chapter entitled ?Additional material? is giving particulars about the name and biography of the ministers, having served the Lutherans in Bratislava in Hungarian, German and Slovak languages. Since 1920 Bratislava had received her earlier rank, although not under the Hungarian name Pozsony, but as Bratislava, the capital of the Slovak Republic. In the course of the more than eighty years lasting history of the Czechoslovak state and the Slovak Republik, the number of the inhabitants whose mother-tongue is Slovak increased significantly, respectively those of German mother-tongue had decreased significantly.
The coexistence of the different nationalities in the Lutheran church, in the course of different historical ages, had been always exemplary. The testimonies and factos of bygone days become alive, with the electronic disclosure of this work of source value.
At present, ?Bratislava in 16. century?, and the data of the biographies of the ministers can be found on our homepage. We are planning the digitalization of the whole volume.
