Summary/Abstract: They didn’t represent an isolated phenomenon, but only reacted the changed circumstances, they favoured the church's self-defence discourses, they joined to the reforms formulated in bishoprics in Hungary. The more radical requests were grouped around inner proposals democratizing his function strengthening the church's national character in his bulk. So we do not present the full reform movement because of this, but we pay attention to the story of the draughting of the reforms being attached to these topics only. The objective analysis of proposals considered this scandalous one may make it possible that took shape in the literature let it be possible to correct a wrong picture.
