2018
Abstract
The lecture was dedicated to Václav Koranda the Younger (1425-1519), a prominent representative of the third generation of Czech Utraquists. The lecturer briefly portrayed his life and work, in particular his university office and controversy with the representatives of the Catholic Church and the radical reformation.
In addition, he presented both his library, which testifies to his intellectual profile, and the development of preferences for the use of both languages, Latin and Czech, in his literary and official writings.
