PETER (1570–1637) , Hungarian See also:cardinal and statesman, was See also:born at Nagyvarad on the 4th of See also:October 1570, and educated at Nagyvarad and See also:Kolozsvar, at which latter See also:place he quitted the Calvinist See also:confession for the See also:Roman communion (1583). In 1587 he entered the Jesuit See also:- ORDER

order. Pazmany went through his See also:probation at See also:Cracow, took his degree at See also:Vienna, and studied See also:theology at See also:Rome, and finally completed his See also:academic course at the Jesuit See also:college at See also:Graz. In 16o1 he was sent to the order's See also:establishment at Sellye, where his eloquence and See also:dialectic won back hundreds to Rome, including many of the noblest families. See also:Prince See also:Nicholas Esterhazy and See also:Paul Rakbczy were among his converts. In 1607 he was attachedto the See also:archbishop of See also:Esztergom, and in the following See also:year attracted See also:attention by his denunciation, in the See also:Diet, of the 8th point of the See also:peace of Vienna, which prohibited the See also:Jesuits from acquiring landed See also:property in See also:Hungary. At about the same See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time the See also:pope, on the See also:petition of the See also:emperor See also:Matthias II., released Pazmany from his monkish vows. On the 25th of See also:April 1616 he was made See also:dean of Tur6cz, and on the 28th of See also:September became See also:primate of Hungary. He received the red See also:hat from See also:Urban VIII. in 1629. Pazmany was the soul of the Roman See also:Catholic reaction in Hungary. Particularly remarkable is his Igazsdgra vezeto Kalauz (See also:Guide to Truth), which appeared in 1613. This See also:manual See also:united all the advantages of scientific See also:depth, methodical arrangement and popular See also:style. As the See also:chief pastor of the Hungarian See also:- CHURCH

church Pazmany used every means in his See also:power, See also:short of See also:absolute contravention of the See also:laws, to obstruct and weaken Protestantism, which had risen during the 16th See also:century. In 16x9 he founded a See also:seminary for theological candidates at See also:Nagyszombat, and in 1623 laid the See also:foundations of a similar institution at Vienna, the still famous Pazmanaeum, at a cost of 200,000 florins. In 1635 he contributed roo,000 florins towards the See also:foundation of a Hungarian university. He also built Jesuit colleges and See also:schools at See also:Pressburg, and Franciscan monasteries at Ersekfijvar and See also:Kormoczbanya. In politics he played a considerable See also:part. It was chiefly due to him that the diet of 1618 elected the See also:archduke See also:Ferdinand to succeed the childless Matthias II. He also repeatedly thwarted the See also:martial ambitions of See also:Gabriel See also:Bethlen, and prevented See also:George Rakbczy I., over whom he had a See also:great See also:influence, from combining with the See also:Turks and the Protestants. But Pazmany's most unforgetable service to his See also:country was his creation of the Hungarian See also:literary See also:language. As an orator he well deserved the epithet of " the Hungarian See also:purple See also:Cicero." Of his numerous See also:works the chief are: The Four Books of See also:- THOMAS
