Abstracts
The article deals with the analysis of a document from the summer of 1831, in which believers from the village of Vyšná Šuňava ask their bishop to allow them to use the church under construction during the duration of cholera. It deals with the reasons that led the local inhabitants to make such a request, and at the same time explains the historical context of its creation against the background of the ongoing cholera epidemic. In addition, it highlights the implementation of the national regulations introduced in the country in connection with this infectious disease in a specific locality, the village of Vyšná Šuňava, and the role they played in the writing of the application presented here. It also provides basic geographical, positional and biographical data on the important actors mentioned in the document under study from the time of its creation – the village of Vyšná Šuňava, where the church in question was located, and the Spiš settlement bishop Jozef Bélik, who was the addressee of the request. The paper has been compiled with the help of primary and secondary sources and specialized literature related to the topic and the period.
