Abstract
The lawsuits of the 1670s have become the symbol of Protestant persecution in the historical memory of Hungary. This study focuses on illustrating the lawsuit topics, false
arguments and false evidence, intended to frame a view on Protestants and to take
control over on a wide range of Protestant society. My aim is to show how a conspiracy
by seemingly lawful means was managed step by step.
