My study focuses on the strategies of self- and community representation used by a fi gure of the early modern Protestant devotional literature, based on two of his works. My aim is not only to describe these strategies, but also to attempt a close-reading of the texts contained in the above-mentioned volumes. In each case, both the main text and the paratexts provide a lot of information about the author’s self-perception and his view of his community. The literary procedures which reveal how a Calvinist preacher serving in Kolozsvár (Cluj) delimitated his own identity and that of his confessional community are, on the one hand, embedded in previous traditions; on the other hand, they are novel due to the specific historical, social and geographical circumstances. The act itself – that the author considers the discourse about identity to be important – can be interpreted as an act of piety, because he instructs the readers how to understand and how to put into practice, in other words, how to live by what he has written.
