Throughout his life, Károly Hetényi Varga has searched for and collected the biographical information of clericals who suffered from persecution by the Nazis and communists. Thanks to his interest and devoted efforts, an impressive body of work has formed. Hetényi Varga didn’t study history at a university, however. He created a unique, specific research system, the results of which remain indispensable to us.

The Collection of Lénárd Ödön is a combination of items which would usually be representative of collections on religious resistance under the socialist dictatorship. It is at the same time the outcome of manifest resistance against the dictatorship and a private collection of documents based on Lénárd’s personal research. The trajectory of the collection offers insights into the ways in which archives which had been private were institutionalized after 1989.

This ad-hoc collection, located in two archives in Budapest, includes archival materials about Lajos Ordass, the bishop of the biggest evangelical church district in Hungary (1945-1948). The communist leaders stigmatized him as the “leader of the evangelical resistance.” After having spent years in prison, Ordass lived isolated from other church leaders, and his writings were prohibited. In this context, simply collecting his legacy constituted a form of opposition to the dictatorship.
