Beskrivning
This study of the origins of the Baptist movement among the Hungarians examines the two attempts to establish a sustained Baptist mission in the Kingdom of Hungary during the nineteenth century: the first unsuccessful attempt begun in 1846 and the second attempt begun in 1873, which resulted in a sustained Baptist presence in Hungary. The primary question the study addresses is why the first attempt came to naught while the second attempt quickly flourished. Related to this is the question of whether any organic connection exists between the two Baptist mission endeavors. In answering these questions interesting themes concerning the intersection of Christian mission, socio-political concerns, and cultural-linguistic tensions are addressed.

"K. ist es gelungen, eine differenzierte, historisch-kritische, die Quellen umfassend aus-schöpfende Studie zu erstellen, die die baptistische Bewegung nicht nur im Ungarn in den heutigen Grenzen behandelt, sondern auch für das gesamte Reich der Stephanskrone umfassend und luzide darstellt. (..) Insgesamt ist ein überzeugendes und solides Buch entstanden! Es ist eine Fundgrube an Informationen und Querverbindungen zu weiteren protestantischen Kreisen der behandelten Zeit (...)." Ulrich A. Wien, in: Zeitschrift für Ostmitteleuropa-Forschung, Vol. 66.2 (2017).
