The study analyses resources deposited in archives and libraries of the Czech Republic and in Rome which allow at least partial reconstruction of biographies of members of the Bohemian Dominican province between the 15th and 18th century. The resources are of a normative, registration and narrative character. The registration resources (registers of the order’s Master generals, province books, books of monastic studies, listings of all members of the province) are the most important; the normative and narrative resources only have a supplementary character.

The essay outlines the nature of sources concerning the history of wizardry and witchcraft processes in the Bohemian lands from the Middle Ages until the second half of the 18th century. The main source of history of wizardry and witchcraft processes in the High and Late Middle Age Bohemian lands comes from narrations. The most important sources of the Early Modern Period until the second half of the 17th century come from the preserved pitch (black) books (smolné knihy). The main sources regarding wizardry and witchcraft processes in the Bohemian lands (and partly in Moravia) from the last quarter of the 17th century until the end of witchcraft in Bohemia (the 1750s) come from sentence manuals of the appeal court which probably registered most of the performed trials.

In the 16th century, there were many confessional and social changes, due to which the position of the Catholic Church seemed to have been shaken and lost many believers and priests. Being faced with the pressure of the spreading Protestant Reformation, Roman Catholicism was itself forced to agree to deeper reforms in its own ranks. This pressure led to attempts at reforming its structures, approach and direction so as to be able to adapt to the early modern conditions and to remain competitive with the new churches. The same regulations constantly reappearing over several decades, numerous cases and disputes, as well as the frequent admonitions from the archbishops and the Holy See, all of these testified to a more difficult and slower application of regulations and their adoption by believers and priets in practice. The Catholic Church had to rethink a number of questions concerning the faith, religious doctrine, teaching the believers and priests, sacraments, ceremonies, church services and especially the life and discipline of the clerics who had to be an example and moral support for secular representatives. Altough the changes were put into practice slowly, synods with their regulations were one of the most important methods or mechanisms of the early modern Catholic reform in Hungary.

The study is a sounding into the family festivities of one of the most important families in Early Modern Hungary, the Esterházys. The picture of the wedding ritual is supplemented with examples from other aristocratic families. Aristocratic weddings were one of the important instruments of family policy and a potential source of increased power. The Palatine Nicholas Esterházy was a great strategist in the field of marriage in the first half of the 17th century. It is difficult to imagine that he would have gained the office of Palatine without his two advantageous marriages. Nicholas Esterházy conceived a family policy, in the context of which he planned the marriages of his descendants. He also organized and supported marriages at his court. Thanks to these marriages, he created a whole web of relationships at his court and in the counties where his properties were situated. Apart from marital politics, the study also examines the actual practices connected with weddings in this period, from engagement and banns to the actual ceremony.
