Book    A Pearl of Powerful Learning     The University of Cracow in the Fifteenth Century

Download or read book A Pearl of Powerful Learning The University of Cracow in the Fifteenth Century written by Paul Knoll and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2016-08-09 with total page 807 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Winner of The Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences of America's 2018 Oskar Halecki Award and Winner of the Early Slavic Studies Association 2016 Book Prize The first fully developed history of the University of Cracow in this period in over a century, “A Pearl of Powerful Learning.” The University of Cracow in the Fifteenth Century places the school in the context of late medieval universities, traces the process of its foundation, analyzes its institutional growth, its setting in the Polish royal capital, its role in national life, and provides a social and geographical profile of students and faculty. The book includes extended treatment of the content of intellectual life and accomplishments of the school with reference to the works of its most important scholars in the medieval arts curriculum, medicine, law, and theology. The emergence of early Renaissance humanist interests at the university is also discussed. Winner of the Early Slavic Studies Association 2016 Book Prize for most outstanding recent scholarly monograph on pre-modern Slavdom. The work was described by the prize committee as: "A thoughtful, highly-informed, and nuanced history of the University of Cracow, an important institution in a pivotal period of Poland’s history. Knoll's treatment of such important issues as the role of the University in national life and the controversial and highly technical matter of the impact of Humanism are dealt with tactfully and thoughtfully. The book will become the definitive work on this topic, and will ensure that the material will rapidly be absorbed into general histories of education and of universities in the Renaissance." Winner of The Polish Institute of Arts and Sciences of America's 2018 Oskar Halecki Award. This award recognizes a book of particular value and significance dealing with the Polish experience and is named after the distinguished 20th century Polish medieval historian, Oskar Halecki, who was one of the founders of PIASA. Professor Knoll will be recognized for this award during the 77th Annual Meeting of PIASA in Gdansk, Poland in June 2019.

Book Die Gr  ndungsurkunden der Prager Universit  t   Der Sinn der doppelten Bekr  ftigung des Gr  ndungsaktes

Download or read book Die Gr ndungsurkunden der Prager Universit t Der Sinn der doppelten Bekr ftigung des Gr ndungsaktes written by Lena Uman and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2011-08-22 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Studienarbeit aus dem Jahr 2011 im Fachbereich Geschichte Europas - Mittelalter, Frühe Neuzeit, Note: 1,3, FernUniversität Hagen, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: Einleitung Es war die Gründung der Prager Universität im Jahre 1348, die den Beginn der Universitätsgeschichte in Deutschland und in Mitteleuropa einleitete(1). Deren spätmittelalterlichen Anfänge und die Gründungsurkunden standen recht früh im Mittelpunkt des Interesses der tschechischen und deutschen Geschichtsforschung, was angesichts des ehrwürdigen Alters der ersten deutschen Universität und ihrer besonderen Rolle als Vorbild für die nachfolgenden Lehranstalten im deutschen und europäischen Bereich kaum zu verwundern vermag. Peter Moraw äußert sich in diesem Zusammenhang: „ Dieses Prager Erbe, wie man auch formulieren konnte, war trotz des kurzen Lebens des Studiums, und ungeachtet von anderswo unwiederholten und wiederholbaren Phänomenen, war bedeutender als jedes andere- jüngere- Erbe in Mitteleuropa vor dem 18 und 19 Jh., ehe Göttingen und Berlin neue Vorbilder für ein neues Zeitalter wurden. Nur Paris und Bologna, die ältesten, waren noch wichtiger.“(2) Bekanntlich gehören zur Gründung der Prager Universität 3 Gründungsdokumente- die Papstbulle vom 26 Januar 1347, und die zwei nachfolgenden königlichen Schriften(3). Im Rahmen der vorliegenden Arbeit möchte ich die von Karl IV verfassten Stiftungsurkunden im Hinblick auf die Intentionen ihres Verfassers untersuchen- den Stiftsbrief vom 07 April 1348 und das, ein Jahr darauf erlassene, Eisenacher Diplom. Denn es fällt auf, dass der Stiftungsakt offensichtlich zweier Dokumente bedurfte, wodurch sich die Frage nach der Bedeutung und der Zielsetzung insbesondere der zweiten Urkunde förmlich aufdrängt. Warum hat der König es für nötig befunden, ein weiteres Dokument auszustellen- zur Besiegelung und Ergänzung seines Stiftsaktes oder zur Bekräftigung seiner Autorität? Und wenn man die zweite Annahme als plausibel akzeptiert, dann resultiert daraus zwingend ein weiteres Forschungsproblem – nämlich: [...] _____ 1 Vgl. R. Schmidt, Begründung und Bestätigung der Universität Prag durch Karl IV und die kaiserliche Privilegierung [...] Alma Mater, Pragnesis, Erlangen 1959, S.67-70. 2 P.

Book A Companion to Jan Hus

Download or read book A Companion to Jan Hus written by Ota Pavlicek and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-02-24 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Companion to Jan Hus includes eleven substantial essays covering the central aspects of the life, thought and commemoration of Jan Hus († 1415), Czech theologian, reformer and martyr. Besides older experienced specialists in the Hussite studies, also younger researchers who enter the scientific discourse with new approaches participated in the volume. Experts and students alike will profit from this guide to Jan Hus, who was well known as follower of John Wyclif and forerunner of Martin Luther. Burning of Jan Hus at the stake at the Council of Constance gave rise in Bohemia to religious and social revolt that ushered the European reformations of the 16th century.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sites of Knowledge combines the history of the University of Vienna with the history of its buildings. The evolution of one of Central Europe"s oldest universities is laid out in essays on the Alma Mater Rudolphina from the points of view of history of architecture and of art, history of science and of the university. This history sets off from the former Duke"s College in Vienna"s inner city district of Stubenviertel and continues via the "Palace of Knowledge" on the Ringstrasse and the glass building Juridicum at Schottenbastei to more recent buildings erected in the Alsergrund district. Each of these buildings represents its own era and at the same time constitutes a lasting expression of the way the university, which is now the largest in the German-speaking realm, has actively shaped its own role.

Book From England to Bohemia

Download or read book From England to Bohemia written by Michael Van Dussen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2012-03-01 with total page 233 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first book-length study of the influential cultural and religious exchanges which took place between England and Bohemia following Richard II's marriage to Anne of Bohemia in 1382. The ensuing growth in communication between the two kingdoms initially enabled new ideas of religion to flourish in both countries but eventually led the English authorities to suppress heresy. This exciting project has been made possible by the discovery of new manuscripts after the opening up of Czech archives over the past twenty years. It is the only study to analyze the Lollard-Hussite exchange with an eye to the new opportunities for international travel and correspondence to which the Great Schism gave rise, and examines how the use of propaganda and The Council of Constance brought an end to this communication by securing the condemnation of heretics such as John Wyclif.

Book Handbook of Medieval Culture  Volume 3

Download or read book Handbook of Medieval Culture Volume 3 written by Albrecht Classen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2015-08-31 with total page 748 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A follow-up publication to the Handbook of Medieval Studies, this new reference work turns to a different focus: medieval culture. Medieval research has grown tremendously in depth and breadth over the last decades. Particularly our understanding of medieval culture, of the basic living conditions, and the specific value system prevalent at that time has considerably expanded, to a point where we are in danger of no longer seeing the proverbial forest for the trees. The present, innovative handbook offers compact articles on essential topics, ideals, specific knowledge, and concepts defining the medieval world as comprehensively as possible. The topics covered in this new handbook pertain to issues such as love and marriage, belief in God, hell, and the devil, education, lordship and servitude, Christianity versus Judaism and Islam, health, medicine, the rural world, the rise of the urban class, travel, roads and bridges, entertainment, games, and sport activities, numbers, measuring, the education system, the papacy, saints, the senses, death, and money.
