Abstracts

EN

The article introduces a controversy in which Czech Catholics disputed concerning the right approach towards Jan Hus (1370/72–1415) and, by extension, towards those who were inspired by him in their religious, ethical, national, social or political attitudes. The paper studies the process of the dispute, in which the main protagonists were Alexander Heidler (1916–1980) and Adolf Kajpr SJ (1902–1959), who published in the periodical Katolík and Timotheus Vodička (1910–1967) and Silvestr M. Braito OP (1898–1962), who published in the review Na hlubinu. The article consequently focuses on the subject matter of the controversy on two levels: the historico-legal and psycho-pastoral. The conclusion of the study demonstrates that there is a connection between Heidler’s participation in the controversy of 1946 and the way in which Card. Josef Beran (1888–1969) presented Hus in his famous speech on religious freedom, which he delivered in 1965 during the talks of the Second Vatican Council.
