Tamás Esterházy (1570–1616)

Tamás Esterházy de Galántha (8 May 1570 – 1616) was a Hungarian noble, son of Vice-ispán (Viscount; vicecomes) of Pozsony County Ferenc Esterházy.

One of his brothers was Nikolaus, Count Esterházy who served as Palatine of Hungary.

He studied at the University of Wittenberg since 3 October 1589 where he converted to Calvinism.

He translated one of his teacher, Aegidius Hunnius's works into Hungarian.

Cardinal Péter Pázmány, a key member and initiator of the Hungarian counter-Reformation condemned Esterházy's work and called Hunnius' publication as "evil".
