The study shows the wider public influence of a politician Emil Stodola, one of the key figures of Slovak history of the 19th and 20th centuries. It especially focuses on further and not yet scientifically explained topics from his work in the evangelical-ecclesiastical and cultural-scientific sector. The outputted text is based on the research of archival materials, published memoirs, and supported by previous professional and scientific literature.

The article deals with the status of women in an evangelical community in Bohemia at the end of the 18th century. A letter correspondence between preachers and the Superintendent of the Lutheran Congregation in Prešpurk, Michael Institoris Mošovský, is used as the primary source for the research of this issue. As emerged from the research, women played a relatively important role in establishing new communities, as after the declaration of the Patent of Toleration, they did not hesitate to proudly proclaim their Lutheran faith and demonstrated rigid attitudes in this regard. As members of the congregation, they were often in close contact with the preachers, providing them with food and minor domestic help. Among other things, the preachers did not hesitate to entrust them with delivering letters or money. In general, it can be concluded that evangelical women living in Bohemia at the turn of the 18th and 19th century received greater respect from pastors than women living in Catholic environments. Furthermore, the evangelical women played an irreplaceable role in the building and stabilization of congregations at the beginning of the Toleration period.

This paper contributes to elaborating the issue of Slovak political thinking in the 2nd half of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century. It focuses on one of the less known personalities in the Slovak politics and Church – Jur Janoška (1856-1930). The author analyses three dominant features of his activities in self-preservation of the nation: 1) Educational policy in the time of expansive denationalisation policy of the Hungarian government at the end of the 19th and the beginning of the 20th centuries. 2) The outcomes of his endeavours to reform the Church policy. 3) His political activities at the time of the emergence of the Czechoslovak Republic. By way of conclusion the author states that J. Janoška, despite a remarkable trace having been left by him in the Slovak Evangelical Church and in the field of the protection of national self-interests and public policy, was sensitive to the discrepancy between the aims set for himself in his religious vocation and public performance and the way he managed to follow them. In his search for moral perfection, spiritual maturity, and civil honesty he is inspiring even in these days, full of maladies of morals and values.
