Phillip N. Haberkern. Patron Saint and Prophet
The year 2015 was of special significance for the study of the Czech national hero Jan Hus. It was one hundred years earlier, on the five-hundredth anniversary of Hus’s execution by fire in July 1415, that Thomas Masaryk launched in Switzerland the Czech independence movement that led to the disintegration of the Habsburg Empire at the end of World War I. The six-hundredth anniversary stimulated the appearance of significant new literature on Hus…
Composing Urban History and the Constitution of Civic Identities
Finding the Middle Way
seventeenth centuries in Protestant and Catholic Europe, but it does have a history, one in which popular credulity gradually gave way to the discrete "relative" scepticism of the elites.How these debates played out in literary works is worthy of consideration.Kallendorf's book, with its impressive range of literary, theoretical, and historical texts consulted, its copious notes, and a rich list of works cited will certainly become an invaluable …
Ideals Face Reality
Utraquists, Lutherans, and the Bohemian Confession of 1575
The purpose of this article is to address the controversial issue of the status of the Utraquist Church in the Kingdom of Bohemia in consequence of the drafting of the Bohemian Confession in 1575. The chronological scope is limited to the period up to 1609, when the issuance of the Letter of Majesty in 1609 formalized the gentlemen's agreement of 1575 and altered the ecclesiastical structure accordingly. According to Czech historiography, the par…
Frič, Herzen, and Bakunin
Hajek, Dubravius, and the Jews
Two disparate viewpoints on Jewish issues emerged in sixteenth-century Czech historiography, represented respectively by a parish priest, beholden to local interests, and provincial in his outlook, and by a prince of the Church, consorting with royalty and intellectually at the peak of a cosmopolitan Renaissance culture. Hajek's Czech Chronicle gathered the charges that would lead to the expulsion of the Jews from Bohemia in 1541. His work mirror…
Jews in sixteenth‐century Czech historiography
L'A. s'interesse a l'image des juifs vehiculee par la litterature historique tcheque du XVI e siecle. Cette attitude est constituee par un paradoxe.

The Strange Fate of Czech Utraquism
This article aims to reassess current historical judgements on the Czech Utraquist Church during the second century of its existence, from 1517 to 1621. It seeks to outline the special problems which Bohemian Utraquism faced as a religious via media , partly viewed from the comparative perspective of the kindred phenomenon of the post-Reformation Church of England. After a discussion of the historiographic issues, the focus is on the distinctive …
The Influence of Jacob Boehme on Russian Religious Thought
In the eighteenth and more particularly in the nineteenth century, Russia enjoyed a reputation for unusually strong currents of religious spirituality. Most frequently these mystical currents have been traced to peculiarly native traditions, such as the Eastern patristic literature and the "naturally" mystical bent of the Russian mind. The influence of Western mysticism has been minimized, if not entirely overlooked. Actually, Western mysticism a…
