Popis: |
This book contains a critical edition of Apologia, a Latin treatise written by a Hussite nonconformist Nicholas of Dresden in 1415, whereby the author reacted to the prohibition of the lay chalice, one of the most outstanding symbols of the Hussite movement. The edition comprises a critical apparatus, reassessment of the textual tradition of the text based on surviving manuscript copies as well as an analysis of the structure of the text and its models. The book is primarily aimed at researchers dealing with the Early Bohemian Reformation, nevertheless due to the wider context provided by the critical edition of the material, it will well serve the historians, philologists, lawyers, and theologians as well. |
