The illuminated Bible in Czech, which was copied and partly also decorated in 1431–1435 by the scribe Jan of Prague, called Aliapars, at the commission of the captain of Tábor, Filip of Padařov, still attracts the attention of researchers. The monograph by Viktor Kubík provides a comprehensive interpretation of the Padeřov Bible, which at its time was a rather unique example of a consistent illumination style in the Czech lands. The focus of the work lies in an extraordinarily beneficial analysis of the decorative elements of the ornamental style exhibited by the two Masters of this exceptional work of art. The book moved the author of the article to examine partially some of the open questions from the cultural-historic viewpoint. Apart from a few additions of a component or hypothetical nature, the treatise provides one important finding for assessing the role of the commissioner of the Bible being studied. Although Filip of Padařov came from a peasant family, he achieved lower ordination in his youth and thus access to school education. The author of the article further believes that the miniature of the fortified locality in the right margin of 286r was to represent two cylindrical towers of Castle Kotnov and the fortification of the entry barbican of the newly founded Hussite town of Tábor.

In a somewhat autobiographical essay on the memoirs of the medievalist Aaron Yakovlevich Gurevich, the author meditates on the development of research into medieval history in eastern Europe in the second half of the twentieth century. In the light of Gurevich’s career and his own experience, the author poses the question of whether it is possible to research freely without the protection of a powerful patron. In addition, he comments briefl y on the gradual penetration of west European, particularly French, methodological innovations into Soviet and Czech historiography. He demonstrates that even in these ideologically limited worlds an historian could nevertheless develop these foreign impulses in his or her own way. The author insightfully also considers the meaning of the relationship between Gurevich and Le Goff .

V poněkud autobiografickém eseji nad paměťmi medievalisty Arona Jakovleviče Gureviče, autor přemítá nad vývojem medievistického výzkumu ve východní Evropě druhé poloviny dvacátého století. Ve světle Gurevičovy kariéry a vlastních zkušeností, si autor klade otázku, zda je možno svobodně bádat bez ochrany mocného patrona. Navíc krátce komentuje postupné pronikání západoevropských, zejména francouzských, metodologických inovací do sovětské a české historiografie. Ukazuje, že i v těchto ideologicky limitovaných zemích si historik mohl nicméně osvojit tyto západní impulsy po svém. Autor zasvěceně poukazuje na význam vztahu mezi Gurevičem a Le Goffem.

First of all, according to him, the Hussites are considered to be the beginning of the Reformation cycle, when its counterweight in the form of the Roman Catholic Counter-Reformation was the sheer number of anti-Hussite treatises, some of which are presented in the appendices in many manuscript copies, not sufficient evidence of premature counter-reformation? Second, in his opinion, the concept that the Church systematically and consciously overestimated the dangers of heresies is even less sustainable. Just as the church underestimated the Waldensian ecumenism, so it later closed its eyes to the military superiority of the Hussite troops and preferred “ostrich” politics (sticking one’s head in the sand) to the dangers of the Hussite schism. Third, Olivier Marin does not agree with the methodology for qualification of medieval heresies that can be found in contemporary French medieval studies. Using the example of Hussite Calixtinism, he then refuses, put simply, to equate heresy with anti-clericalism. Instead of anti-clericalism, it would be appropriate to speak of “anti-sacerdotalism”, i.e. the rejection of the necessary mediation of the priest between God and ordinary believers. Without reservations, it is possible to place this monograph by Olivier Marin among the most valuable works of foreign authors dealing with Hussitism, not only for its exemplary processing of the material, but also by conceptual overlaps with the deeper social and ideological streams of the 14th to 16th centuries. Moreover, thanks to this revealing and stylistically attractive book, it has again become clear that Hussitism was not just a matter of the Czech lands or the neighbouring lands.

The development of art studies research, superb books presenting the artistic heritage and in particular huge exhibitions with many visitors are beginning to find an unintended response in broad historical public awareness. This particularly involves artistic artefacts from the Luxembourg era which as pars pro toto have taken on the role of history-making agent. For the basic line to stand out properly it needed a contrast, i.e. Hussitism as a new Dark Ages, when instead of the likes of Hus and Chelčický iconoclasts and destroyers of sacred buildings came to the fore. What was at best only indirectly indicated in specialist works became fodder for cheap journalism.

Rozvoj výzkumu dějin výtvarného umění, nádherné knihy představující umělecké dědictví a především hojně navštěvované rozsáhlé výstavy začínají nacházet nezamýšlenou odezvu v širším historickém povědomí veřejnosti. To se zvlášť týká uměleckých artefaktů z éry Lucemburků, kteří se stali prototypem dějinotvorných činitelů. Aby tato základní myšlenka vynikla, je zapotřebí kontrastu - tedy husitství jako nové doby temna, z níž byli spíše než Hus či Chelčický vyzdviženi obrazoborci a bořitelé sakrálních staveb. To co bylo v pracích odborníků nanejvýš nepřímo naznačeno, stalo se živnou látkou pokleslé publicistiky.
