### Gáspár Károlyi (around 1530 - 1591)
He was a Calvinist religious writer and Bible translator. He studied in Wittenberg and when he returned home he became a preacher in Gönc. He took part in theological debates with the Unitarians. His prosaic work entitled "Two Books" (Debrecen, 1563) was about the coming of Judgement Day and the apocalyptic historical view of the Wittenberg reformation. He published his Bible translation with the help of a local landowner, Zsigmond Rákóczy - it was printed in Bálint Mantskovit's press in Vizsoly. The Vizsoly Bible is the symbolic work of the Hungarian Reformation, which had a tremendous influence on Hungarian literary and poetic language, its style, pictures, and expressions were also adapted into common speech.
