Abstract
The article analyses subjects, objects and the content of the legal norms of the Peace Treaty of Augsburg 1555 in the context of using the legislative technique and legal models of the previous imperial freedom of faith acts. Legal interpretation of the texts of the Treaty articles and the causes of its definite formulae is proposed. “The Augsburg whole-empire final decision” of 1555 in the majority of composing legal-norms, legislative technique and legal terminology has been significantly influenced by the previous whole-empire freedom of faith acts of Reichstags and emperor authorities. The majorities of its legal norms final wording are the result of the period of competition and compromises between Catholic and Lutheran parties. But this act has not finished their struggle and has not given them equality of rights. The quintessence of this act’s legal achievements was the accent on peaceful decisions of the Empire’s confessional problems, the specific interpretation of the Freedom of Faith phenomena, narrow range of its subjects and final legitimizing of the Lutheranism as “a religion”. Despite of the declaration of equity of both confessions, the profound interpretation of the contexts and the consequences of the text indicates the privileged status of the Catholicism, which has remained the state religion. Namely, these covert privileges have resulted in ousting not only the Calvinists, who were not the subjects of the act, but also the Lutherans, who had been protected by the act, from the great number of the Empire’s lands. The mentioned legal norms played significant role in further federalization of the Empire and evading its split, but in the long run perspective they have laid grounds for confederalization of the Holy Roman Empire, Thirty Years’ War and the final collapse of the Empire. Therefore, it would have been an exaggeration to view this act upon as the final decision of the territorial religious conflict in German lands and as the guarantor of the modern freedom of faith understanding (even for limited scope).
