The study is concerned with the problem of the Hungarian administration of the Duchy of Styria in the period 1254–1260. As a result of the almost complete absence of study of this theme in European historiography, the study has the basic aim of approaching this period of the Central European history of the second half of the 13th century. The text of the study is based mainly on content analysis of surviving diplomatic and narrative sources from the Holy Roman Empire. The most notable result of the test is clarification of the relationship of representatives of the Hungarian administrative authorities in the Duchy of Styria with ecclesiastical institutions such as monasteries, and with the secular elite: aristocrats, officials.

The article is devoted to the problems of preservation of the monasteries of Arkhangai Aimag, which was from 1600-1920 a Centre of Buddhist Art. There are many objects of cultural heritage – the tangible and intangible. Monasteries were founded in the XVI-XVIII centuries at this region and played an important role in the economic and cultural development of Central Mongolia. Around monasteries formed a large settlement, city, trade, transport, craft and social infrastructure, developed education, medicine. A significant part of the residents of Arkhangai Aimag devoted themselves to the service of the Monasteries. Monasteries were centres of culture and art. Silk Road, crossing Aimag, contributed to the integration, mutual influence of European and Asian cultures. From 1928 the Buddhist Religion was persecuted by the communist party. The Monasteries were collectivized. Already the adoption of the law on the separation of Church and State, the mass repressions of the second half of the 1930-ies most of the monasteries were destroyed, some changed to the use as utility rooms, ware-houses, institutions for culture. 1937 in relationship to Stalin’s Terror the Soviet Military was stationed in Mongolia and all of the Monasteries were closed or destroyed. Monks were taken from their positions in the Monasteries and secularized. Since 1990, Mongolia began the revival of religious associations, the return of former monasteries to liturgy. Surviving monastic building are the monuments of material culture. Many of them turned into ruins and relate to archaeological objects of cultural heritage. The article contains a general description of Buddhist Monasteries of Arkhangay Aimac, compiled in the course of the Russian-Mongolian expedition conducted in the summer of 2017 with the financial support of the Russian Foundation for Basic Research (RFFI) №17-21-03551. The article includes conclusions and recommendations for further study and use.

The Cistercian Monastery in Plasy (1145–1785) gave the large domain situated in Western Bohemia a clear road network which has been apparent till today; one of the most significant paths boasting rich iconography and a clearly apparent late–Baroque concept of decorations is the “old Plasy path” which has linked the Plasy monastery, the Sechutice farmyard, the provostry in Mariánská Týnice and the Hubenov farmyard for more than eight centuries. Iconographic sources (vedute from the turn of the late 18th and early 19th centuries), maps (Mauritius Vogt, 1729, Adnreas and Johann Wiehl, the early 19th century) and written documents (Tilia plassensis, 1729, Breve teinicense, about 1767) document the unusual stability of landscape links whose preservativ is the objective of regional projects.

The author contemplates about the power structure of a fairly small territory delimited with Libice in the north, Kolin in the south, Pňov in the west and Ohař in the east during the pre-Hussite era using almost all available sources. The first volume of a large study focuses on monastýry demesnes, not only their scope and changes, but namely their role within the power network in the region in interaction with the town of Kolin, with the gentry and serfs. The fact that the research covered a period from the 10th till the early 15th centuries made it possible to see certain dynamics in the formation of this region in spite of the lack of sources.

In the overview on Christianization in the Central Danubian territory, mostly in Slovakia, the author focuses on the origins of Christianity among Slavs, the issue of Great Moravia, missionary work of Constantine and Methodius and the topic of continuity of Christianity in the 9th – 11th centuries. He pays attention to several arguable points in the interpretation of sources and he attempts to describe wider cultural and historical context of early Christianization phases of Slavs from Upper Danube region. He emphasizes the informative value of certain archeological findings related to Christianization from multiple directions – western (Kingdom of the East Franks), south-western (northern Italy, Adriatic region) and southern (Byzantine Empire).

The paper introduces the life story of a long-time prior and Abbot Bernard Tomáš Wancke (1651-1714, abbot 1709-1714) on the basis of various types of narrative and official sources originating in the Premonstratensian abbey Klášterní Hradisko u Olomouce. Soon after his death he was proclaimed abbas Marianus, which evoked his merits in the prosperity of the pilgrim site at Svatý Kopeček u Olomouce to which two of his printed works are dedicated – a narrative about miracles (Continuatio gratiarum dated 1711) and a handbook for pilgrims (Mons Praemonstratus, id est genuia desriptio sacri et gratiis Marianis longe, lateque refulgentis Montis dated 1713). Besides these, he published in print a genealogic work dedicated to St. Norbert (Seminarium olivarum) in 1701.

In the second part of the study the author continues the analysis of monastery assets by analyzing informatik related to several yeoman families in the surroundings and by gathering as much information as possible about the parish network between Kolín and Libice. Along with results of previous analyses, he uses this information as the baseline for contemplation about the function of this territory before the Hussite movement and also for thinking about the importance of individual elements in this area and their mutual relationships.
