Somogy Judit: Data on the development of the ecclesiastical and religious life in Somogy County in the decades after the Turkish era. This present study wishes to draw up the relations of the affairs of churcg and religion in Somogy County during the first three decades after the expulsion of the Turks through introducing the religion politics on the level of both national and county administration around the turn of the century and the denominations (Catholics, Protestants, Greek orthodox, Jews) to be found in the county. Among others, the author also publishes the document of the General Assembly, not made public so far, on the debates over the Religion Committee of Pest and the construction of the church by the name pf St. Borromaeus Károly. Szíjártó M. István: Daily fees of envoys and the independence of comitats in the 18th century In 1765 Somogy County paid its envoys to Parliament a daily fee higher than that prescribed. Only half of the difference could be reclaimed by the Governor's Council after a nearly six-year long tug o'war. The Governer's Council stipulations of 1726 were violated not only this time, but so were they throughout the parliaments of 1728-29, 1741 and 1751, which goes to show how independent the comitat and its governing power, the well-to-do landed middle nobility, were of the central authorities, and how helpless these authorities were against them. After that, at the end of the century they even managed to gain the king's approval of the raise of the daily fee of the envoys to Parliament. Gálné Jáger Márta: „We have risen in among the learned nations of Europe" Regulations in Somogy County in the spring of 1848 as to the execution of the April Laws in the context of sources This present selection from among the contemporary documents and minutes of meetings of the General Assembly of the county (with notes and an introductory study) provides an overview of the execution of the April Laws of 1848 on the county level - among others, the alterations in administration, the abolishment of landlords' authorities, the preparation of the election to Parliament of popular representation, the alteration of Kaposvár and Szigetvár into towns with organized councils, the organization of the National Guard, the defense of the southern territory. We are shown the process in the course of which the comitat of the nobility was being replaced by a County Administration Commission which provided a wider social participation but elected not yet on the basis of popular representation. By way of its measures, through pulling down the feudal structure of the comitat and setting up a new legal, institutional framework, the bourgeouis develepment of the county could get under way.
