Modern Protestant churches, approved by the Patent of Toleration issued by Joseph II, could not (and in many respects they did not want to) continue the heritage of Bohemian Reformation. However, such legacy appeared thorough the “long” 19th century, and at its end it was emphasized by national movement and political programmes of several political parties. At the beginning of the 20th century, the importance of the above legacy grew significantly, and culminated after the formation of Czechoslovakia: most Czech Protestant churches claimed their allegiance, explicitly and even confirmed by the change of their names, to the tradition of Bohemian Reformation. Besides the largest Protestant Church of Czech Brethren, these were: the Unity of Brethren, the Church of Czech Brethren, the Chelčický´s Unity of Brethren, as well as the Czechoslovak (Hussite) Church, the United Methodist Church, the Salvation Army, the Religious Society of Czechoslovak Unitarians, the Orthodox Church and some other communities. The aim of this article is to analyse historical and theological justification of that self-declaration, its importance for the work of each community, and its development in the 20th century to date.

This study refers to a little known area in which Czech aesthete, philosopher and Sokol founder Miroslav Tyrš (1832–1884) was involved, i.e. his religious thinking. Although Tyrš only wrote about religion as a sideline, it was of importance to him. In a study on Islam as the most advanced classical religion, he outlined the (anticipated) emergence of a “modern religion”, which he described within the context of Islam. Hence regardless of his inspiration and manifest objective, this work comes more under the category of the general philosophy of religion than of Islamology, although it is also analysed in this context.
