The paper provides an in-depth analysis of the medieval ecclesiastical boundaries' formation in the Hungarian Kingdom on the example of the Provostship of Spiš. This case is particularly valuable because it offers insight into this issue at a time when historians can rely on a greater number of surviving sources. On the basis of a broad sources' heuristic, the different sections of the Provostships' boundaries are analysed successively. The analysis reveals that the key factors in the boundaries creation were the progression and the expansion of settlement in particular areas. There were modifications of the boundaries in the later period, whereby the boundaries of the dioceses were aligned with the boundaries of the secular administrative units -- kingdoms and Hungarian counties. The process throughout the 13th and 14th centuries gave rise to ecclesiastical boundaries which, in most cases, survived several major reforms (e. g. erigation of new bishoprics in 1776) and have persisted to the present day.

This paper deals with a research area of the ERASMUS+ project Developing Teaching Competencies for Extensive Reading Programs (LEELU, 2016-2019), an international teacher training intervention on the topic of extensive or free voluntary reading. Subject-specific pedagogy experiences and insights of teachers who established this programme in German as a foreign language in grade 10 are highlighted. In Italy, the Netherlands and Hungary, teachers brought principles of free voluntary reading into practice and developed them further cooperatively. An open-ended teacher survey reveals the success of the programme. Interview transcripts deepen the results of the findings. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article discusses the coverage of recent events in Hungary and Egypt in the British press. It mentions that "The Times" cautiously defends the British action in Egypt, suggesting that the events in both countries should not be measured on the same scale given the violent situation in Hungary. It also mentions conservative papers like the "Daily Mail" strongly support the Hungarian freedom fighters and the military action in Egypt.
