In the historiographic space, the Reformation refers to the movement to affirm freedom and human rights that appeared in Europe in the second decade of the 16th century and was led by the Augustinian Martin Luther (1483-1545). The ideology of the Reformation was most meaningfully reflected through the musical expression of the Protestant hymn. Over time, hymnological, liturgical, and musicological research, reflecting the influence of historicism, continued to influence church music and some other musical orientations. In the Protestant liturgy, metrical hymns are an important part of congregational worship. Protestant music has a deep functional and theological character, a history of its own, a specific writing, a particular aesthetic, being dominated by the theological ideas of the texts, and having a precise liturgical function. In the era of digitization and global crises, the huge heritage of Protestant hymnology that liturgical and musicological research has brought with it the development of new forces responsible for the currents of affirming freedom of expression in the global cultural crisis within the social, religious, political, and economic human conditions.

Churches and religious societies, despite the suppression of their importance, mission and results of their pastoral and educational activities in Slovak society since the second half of the 20th century and their temporary radical revival after 1990, are in the currently ideologically enforced corporate-liberal social environment again subject to recognition, condemnation and suppression. It also applies to their representatives, their believers, their membership base. It is obvious that, on the basis of the ecumenical program born during the Second Vatican Council, even in Slovak society, the dominant Roman Catholic Church has clearly stepped out of its historical socio-paternalistic attitudes. The current policy of the Slovak particular Roman Catholic Church leads all its members and adherents to religious tolerance. Despite this, manifestations of religious tolerance in the current secularizing Slovak national community are accepted by a certain part of the so-called modernist population with a considerable amount of animosity. This opens up a vast and fragmented political space for the Slovak state authorities to regulate and eliminate the currently more aggressive manifestations of the currently living intolerance. Especially radically directed against the views of the "backward", so-called the worldview of the archaic, i.e. religiously oriented, majority of the Slovak population. The task of the current state power becomes the reduction of anti-religious and anti-church activities, rooted in and based on a destructive ideological and ideological platform that negatively affects the value orientation of the emerging West European so-called liberal-modernist generation.

Navzdory skutečnosti, že moldavské a valašské kláštery měly značný územní rozsah a hluboce ovlivnily sociální, ekonomický, politický a kulturní život v pravoslavné Levantě, vědecký zájmem historiků se tomuto tématu zatím vyhnul. Příčiny této situace jsou pravděpodobně především metodologické: obrovské množství dokumentů, psaných v různých jazycích a různých paleografických kulturách (slovanské, rumunské, řecké, latinské a německé), které jsou většinou nepublikované. V období od 15. století do poloviny 18. století provedla knížata a vysocí dvorští hodnostáři rozsáhlé donace centrálních panství ve prospěch obou moldavských pravoslavných církví a klášterů ve zbytku Osmanské říše. Nejdůležitějšími dary byly celé obce nebo jejich části, vinice, mlýny i finanční dary, k nim je možné připočíst ještě další dary celé pravoslavné Levanty. Pravoslavná církev v Moldávii tak upevnila své majetkové posatvení získáním vesnic od jejich právoplatných vlastníků. Zdroje příjmů moldavských klášterů se velmi lišily: zemědělství, vybírání poplatků a pokut, osvobození od daní a někdy i peněžní dary. Výše příjmů se lišila od jednoho kláštera k druhému, od jedné vesnice do druhé a od jednoho roku do dalšího. Výše těchto příjmů je známá pouze u příjmů plynoucích ze správy klášterních nemovitostí, což představuje asi jednu desetinu celkového příjmu klášterní domény, i když velmi významnou, zejména ve srovnání k příjmům ostatních obyvatel knížectví. I tak byly ovšem příjmy moldavských klášterů mnohem menší než u klášterů v katolickém světě. I presto podporovaly moldavské kláštery pravoslaví v Transylvánii, Polsku a Osmanské říši. Tento významný rozpor vzhledem ke katolické Evropě byl primárně určen menším vlivem a bohatstvím Moldávie ve srovnání s katolickými státy Evropy. Dále, hospodářský rozvoj tohoto rumunského knížectví značně utrpěl v důsledku vzniku a rozvoji osmanského práva, po dobytí Konstantinopole (1453), krymského chanátu (1575) a Uher (1526), takže knížectví bylo nuceno přijmout osmanskou nadvládu a zaplatit poplatek, jehož hodnota se neustále zvyšovala. Navíc se situace v Moldávii stala velmi obtížnou z důvodu obecného oslabení stříbra v celé Evropě a nedobré ekonomické situace v celé Osmanské říši. K těmto příčinám mohou být dale připočteny přírodní katastrofy (sucho, sarančata, hladomor, epidemie, atd. velmi běžné v oblasti Dunaje). Kromě toho, chudoba klášterů byla také zapříčiněna sporadickými vojenskými konfrontacemi mezi Moldávií a Uherskem, Polskem a později Osmanskou říší, po kterých následovaly války sousedních zemí na jejich vlastním území: Polsko, Rakousko, Rusko a Osmanská říše. Obraz pak doplňují četné drancovací nájezdy a výpravy za otroky, k posledním dochází v roce 1758. Všechny tyto války obecně ovlivňují ekonomickou situaci knížectví mezi Dněstrem a Karpaty a zejména z moldavských klášterů činí oblíbený cíl pro lup vojáků. K ožebračení mnoha klášterů konečně vede snaha některých knížat sanovat své dluhy z klášerního majetku a výnosů.

The architecture promoted by the Jesuit Order contains a mindful construction process, which also implies features related to the urban status of their churches and colleges . Based on this concept, the following pages investigate their buildings from Transylvania. The study is part of the author’s ongoing doctoral research, regarding the construction phenomenon of Catholic Orders in the eighteenth-century Transylvania. The geographical limits were outlined on the borders of the historical Principality, thus being researched the Society’s settlements from Cluj, Sibiu, and Târgu Mureș. This study aims to explore both the intentions behind the land acquisition and development and how buildings have been perceived in these towns over the centuries. It will be concluded that all three structures were carefully designed and developed in urban areas of maximum interest, to make a confessional and political stance in the Protestant landscape of these Transylvanian cities.

The article deals with descriptions of the Russian monastery of St. Panteleimon and the Serbian monastery of Hilandar on Mount Athos in the monumental work “Athonias” (1848–1865) by Athonite monk and historiographer Iakobos Neasketiotes. A comparison of the texts of the two most recent and complete manuscript copies of the work allows us not only to see the thematic expansion and the addition of the documents, but also to conceptually revise our insights into the history of Athonite monasteries. The six available Athos versions, including the Koutloumousiou codex gr. 516 and the non-catalogued codex Neasketiotes of 1842, both Greek autographs of Iakobos Neasketiotes, allow us to trace the expansion and deepening of Hilandarian themes in his fundamental historiographical work, “Athonias”.

The study of the middle Byzantine church of Saint Germanos is a good example of the complicated relations in the south of the Balkan Peninsula during the era of national allegiances and their impact on earlier and current scholarship. The founding of the church, its architecture and iconography have been studied through various lenses, but a comprehensive approach has yet to appear. The paper does neither intend to fill these gaps nor to investigate new archeological material or provide definitive solutions to the puzzling history of the monument, which, until recently, functioned within culturally and linguistically diverse communities. Instead, it proposes a re-reading of the visual and written evidence, in dialogue with the comments and interpretations that have so far been published. Moreover, the monument’s iconography and the issue of its patron saint are tentatively contextualized.

In the Roma communities, especially after 1990, the Pentecostal Church in Romania had a considerable influence through missionary and charitable activities. Through various foreign humanitarian organisations in the USA and Europe, Pentecostal Christians began extensive campaigns to help poor Roma communities, on which occasion they also received a New Testament and were invited to attend services in Pentecostal churches. The missionary activities through which Pentecostal Christians came into contact with Roma communities served as a foundation and impetus for change in the lives of the Roma. As time passed, the results began to show, so that the biblical standards and moral values that the Roma saw in the evangelical Christian world led and encouraged them to adopt them as well. Thus the reception of the Gospel has meant significant changes among Roma communities, which have been observed even by state institutions, significantly decreasing the level of crime in evangelical Roma communities. The study also presents a case study, namely the village of Fântânele in Dâmbovița County, Romania.

Mirosalv Volf is a Protestant theologian who has addressed the relationship between church and society. In this paper we will examine Miroslav Volf ’s perspective on religious freedom and reconciliation as the ultimate goal in a globalised and diverse society. The author builds his vision of religious freedom on his personal experiences and his existential context, marked by ethnic and religious conflicts. He argues that in order to understand religious freedom correctly, we need to address reconciliation and inter-religious dialogue as its foundation. The article explores two philosophical models of freedom and reconciliation: the ‚oppression-liberation’ model and the ‚scapegoat’ theory. I will argue that these approaches have their limitations and can lead to the perpetuation of social problems and oppression. Volf ’s proposal is an alternative vision, stating that love and mutual respect are the fundamental values that should guide freedom and reconciliation. He emphasises the importance of a mindset of respect, embodying these values within a framework of freedom. Religious freedom, in Volf ’s view, should be promoted by the world’s religions because only in this way can reconciliation and dialogue between different religious beliefs be sustained. Love, respect and dialogue therefore play a central role in promoting reconciliation and a harmonious society in the age of globalisation. In the view shared by Miroslav Volf, this is the context in which religious freedom makes society aim for a common good.
