Zsombor Tóth has been teaching early modern Hungarian literary history at the Department of Hungarian Literary Studies of Babes-Bolyai University (Cluj-Napoca) for ten years. He defended his PhD-thesis in 2004. His dissertation focused upon the reception of English Puritanism in early modern Hungary, with a special regard to the discourses displayed by ego-documents, in terms of self-fashioning and the practice of piety. His research and teaching activity is centered around historical anthropology and microhistory. Now he is working on a book, dedicated to the famous early modern Hungarian historian, Mihály Cserei de Nagyajta (1667–1756).
