Abstract

As the analysis of the Third Lithuanian Statute of 1587 shows, at the initial stage of the Counter-Reformation, despite the strengthening of its supporters, the new set of laws established inter-confessional peace in the country and gave equal rights to adherents of different faiths. The lives and property of Protestant priests were now protected by the state. This was due to the fact that the Counter-Reformation had little impact on the political elite of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania. This state of inter-confessional relations in the Grand Duchy of Lithuania seriously differed from the nature of inter-confessional relations in Poland, where in the 70–80s of the 16th century religious intolerance was growing fast.
