Abstract
The author makes an attempt to interpret the Reformation events in Słupsk. The scholars reconstructed the religious changes from the end of 1524 to the end of the 1530s in Słupsk in a similar way, but they differed in the interpretation of those events. The author of the article found the source which hitherto had not been exploited. It comes from the resources stored in the Archive of Szczecin’s Dukes in Szczecin. The author maintains that it was in 1521 that the Reformation ideas appeared in Słupsk. Their initiator was the monk from Białobok – Christian Ketelhut. Next, the article addresses the activity of the first advocates and opponents of the Reformation in Słupsk. In the years 1524–1525 social unrest took place. The organizer of the religious tumult was Johannes Amandus, who had arrived from Konigsberg. The significance of his activity arises a great deal of debate. The author underlines the fact that Amandus talked with the old city council about the introduction of the new religion – not with the new Civil Committee. There is no evidence that the Civil Committee was active in this field. Participants of the tumult of the end of December 1524 committed iconoclasm in Our Lady’s Church and burnt down the Dominican church. It was not until the Pomeranian duke’s intervention and his regulations introduced in mid-1525 that the situation in the city stabilized. The Civil Committee was dissolved; the authority returned to the old city council, and the duke ordered that one preacher be chosen. The act of 25 November 1525 allowed to establish the Lutheran commune formally. Its parson became a Jacob Hogense. The article presents the process of the gradual taking over of various church institutions by the Evangelicals. It was a quite prolonged process. Catholic religious life functioned in Słupsk without major disturbances until 1537, and it is hard to talk about the extinction of the Catholicism in Słupsk after 1525. In the city there dominated two denominations. In 1539 the canon Natzmer was made to leave the parsonage of Słupsk. From 1535 it was the convent of the Norbertines in Słupsk that constituted the spiritual and material support for Catholic clergymen in Słupsk.
