Abstracts

Nobility’s correspondence constitutes an important historical source and although a fairly large number of letters written by the Early Modern Age noblemen has already been published (especially the letters of Karel the Elder of Žerotín and Václav Budovec of Budov), letters heretofore unknown can still be discovered. A number of letters written by the members of the Unity of Brethren nobility can be found in the archive of Matouš Konečný which was discovered in 2006. This archive includes also the total of 11 letters written by Václav Budovec of Budov and by his son Adam and addressed to the Bishop of the Unity of Brethren Matouš Konečný in the period 1612-1618 and one letter by Václav Budovec to Karel the Elder of Žerotín. However, many of the heretofore unknown letters can be found also in various collections and funds that have already been largely exploited. This is also the case of ten letters written by Václav the Younger Morkovský of Zástřizl to Jakob Zwinger in the period 1595-1609. These two sets of letters constitute the subject matter of this study.
