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".[2]
Tamás Esterházy died in 1616 at Galántha, ancient estate of the House of Esterházy.

gollark: Using relatively general-purpose hardware is quite useful right now since the details of how to do things aren't that pinned down yet and being able to experiment is valuable.
gollark: In that they can frequently do the sort of thing a human could do in one shot without needing to do much conscious thought or use working memory, but fall down horribly on lots of multi-step things or particularly thinky stuff.
gollark: They're not replicating the actual implementation very much. They do seem to be replicating the rough functionality.
gollark: They also do not actually perfectly remember things (or "form new memories" at all after training) unless you glue some kind of external memory retrieval on.
gollark: They might have something like emotions internally (it would be hard to check) but there's not a strong reason for them to be humanlike given their very different tasks.
