The aim of this article is to find out how the canons, who made up the spiritual elite of the Catholic Church in Moravia, reflected on the rapidly developing book culture of the time and how the practice of dedicating personal books to the Olomouc chapter developed during this period. In investigating these questions, new source material obtained from research into Swedish book treasures from the Czech Lands was used. As part of this, it was possible to identify the contents of the libraries of approximately 30 Olomouc canons. Analysis of these indicated a very gradual development of canons’ libraries which gained momentum only after 1600. The typical features of canons’ libraries included a conservative character in terms of the content and external appearance of books and a relatively intensive transfer of books within the Olomouc ecclesiastical milieu. Canons’ libraries mainly reflected the education and professional or spiritual orientation of the canons, and only in exceptional cases their owners’ personal basis as well. New trends in the field of private libraries were usually brought to Olomouc by canons with longer experience abroad or a wider cultural background and supra-regional contacts. This research also shows that the canons’ strategy regarding referencing their personal books also changed during the period surveyed. The Jesuit College in Olomouc, founded in 1566, gradually became the main recipient of book donations. Book bequests in its favour increased significantly at the beginning of the 17th century. However, the greatest increase can be observed during the period of tense religious relations after the Bohemian Revolt of 1620. This increasingly frequent practice was influenced not only by the canons’ personal relationships with the progressive Jesuit order but probably also by the assumption that the donated books would be deposited in a Jesuit college (as opposed to chapter libraries) and continue to be actively used.","PeriodicalId":36082,"journal":{"name":"Opera Historica","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135666874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It focuses in particular on Friedrich Lebzelter, who was sent to the Kingdom of Bohemia at the beginning of December 1618 to send reliable messages to the Elector of Saxony, Johann Georg I, directly from the centre of the uprising. Friedrich Lebzelter quickly managed to integrate himself into the Bohemian milieu. As early as mid-December 1618, he supplied the Dresden court with relatively extensive reports. To these he attached descriptions of many confidential documents provided to him by Counts JĂĄchym OndĹej and Jan AlbĂn Ĺ lik. Even before the end of 1619, the official envoy Jacob von GrĂźnthal had also arrived in Prague. He was supposed to force the Bohemian Estates into a conciliatory meeting with Emperor Matthias. The key members of the directory rejected this solution, but at the same time they did not want to be quick to anger the Elector of Saxony, who promoted the meeting (interposition). A complex situation consequently resulted. On the one hand, Jacob von GrĂźnthal was assured that the Bohemian Estates were willing to negotiate with the Habsburgs. At the same time, however, there were reports about the irreconcilable attitude of certain persons and other military preparations. At the beginning of 1619 the Saxon diplomats were definitely not united. Friedrich Lebzelter took the opportunity to leave Prague and visit the military encampment near ÄeskĂŠ BudÄjovice, an action which did not meet with understanding at the Dresden court. Jacob von GrĂźnthal obviously did not get along with those reporting from Prague. In the end, everyone involved was forced into some kind of reconciliation. However, this apparently blunted their critical judgment, as in March 1619 they unanimously declared that the Bohemian statesmen would be happy to negotiate a peace.","PeriodicalId":36082,"journal":{"name":"Opera Historica","volume":"22 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135666865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Was early modern natural law secularized? The current debates","authors":"Ivo Cerman","doi":"10.32725/oph.2023.006","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.32725/oph.2023.006","url":null,"abstract":"Even though the idea that there was a one-way secularization of natural law in 17th century has been abandoned, it is still possible to speak about an unintentional long-term secularization of legal thought. This is the position advanced recently by Knud Haakonssen. I argue here that this approach also requires a focus on specific classical works that had „secularizing effects“. The matter may be complicated by changes that a classical work underwent in re-editions during the author’s lifetime, or by reinterpretations of a classical work itself that may reveal previously unknown religious undertones. On the other hand, contextual or clandestine texts by the author should not be regarded as relevant, but merely as other religious interests displayed by the author during his lifetime. This review article surveys current valid secularization theories, and then focuses on the recent volume Sacred Polities, edited by Hans W. Blom (2022). It raises a new question about the parallel „Hebraist natural law“ which existed side by side with the post-Grotian „secular natural law“. Petrus Cunaeus’s De republica Hebraeorum of 1617, which coined the term „theocracy“, is especially important. The chapters on Humanist natural law before Grotius show that the Danish Lutheran Hemmingsen had used a deductive method long before Pufendorf and Wolff. Recent research on Catholic natural law has underlined that the Catholics made a significant contribution in their optimistic conception of rational human nature. This is partly reflected in Blom’s volume, which also explains why the Neapolitan school of natural law was interested in Grotius’s conception. Finally, the chapters on Pufendorf demarcate the limits of human agency vis-à-vis divine voluntarism, and then in terms of political coercion in matters of religion. New research has established that Pufendorf rejected coercion only in fundamental matters of revealed religion, but admitted the use of force in uncertain religious issues. It has also been proved that Pufendorf ’s natural law was not backed by God arbitrarily, but within the framework of a „hypothetical necessity“.","PeriodicalId":36082,"journal":{"name":"Opera Historica","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135666867","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
