Cíle předmětu
In this course, students will learn how the most important social and ecclesiological topics were communicated by the Czech Reformers both in written and oral forms. Also the reception and rejection of these ideas in other medieval European lands - especially German and Polish - will be discussed.
Výstupy z učení
After completing the course, students will be able to:
- describe general literary and historical context of the Czech Reformation
- recognise the most popular literary tools and genres of textual communication and argumentation of this medieval era
- analyze the main ideas written or pronounced by both reformers and their opponents
- understand the influence of the early Czech Reformation on the Hussites movement
- understand the relationship between the Czech Reformation and "reformations" in other medieval European lands
Osnova
  • 1. "Made in Prague" - the University of Prague as a space for reading, discussion and controversy and a place where the Reformation arose (curriculum, books, dispute over John Wyclif); the court of Charles IV, Prague chancery and Bethlehem chapel as influential intersections
  • 2. Reform by the Czech preachers - Milíč, Matěj of Janov and Jan Hus as Christ's battlers against the contemporary Church and Antichrist (how the sharp rhetoric in sermons looked like and how the critique addressed to laymen and representatives of the Church incl. the sinful pope differed)
  • 3. University disputation and accurate argumentation between "heretics" and their opponents - how to defend your opinion in medieval "quodlibet" or "polemic" disputes
