Book Synopsis
In the 16th century - due to the lack of local higher education institutions - Wittenberg was the most important university for Protestants in Hungary. Up to the end of the century about 1200 students stayed here, 430 of them were direct pupils of Melanchthon between 1522 and 1560. The Coetus was created on June 24th, 1555, in a period in which the Wittenberg University was in its flourishing epoch. Melanchthon will have played a decisive role in the creation of the Coetus. It was he who presided over the regular biweekly disputations of the community until the end of his life. Looking at the list of names, it is easy to see that in the first ten years Melanchthon was the common denominator, and although the majority of the members consisted increasingly of supporters of the Swiss Reformation over the years.
