In the seventeenth century, the practice of handing diplomatic gifts was on the rise among European sovereigns. A certain number of treatises intended for ambassadors specifically refer to this practice. These gifts, brought by the nuncios, his ambassadors, were selected, not only by the pope, but also by great figures in the papal court, like cardinals’ nephews or relatives. They were able to recognize which works would be the most appreciated by the Stuart King, the emperor or the kings of France or Spain. The letters sent by the nuncios or the newspapers which tackle events that had occurred in foreign courts constitute precious sources to identify and review such presents. Moreover, papal gifts were dual. The Supreme Pontiff was a religious sovereign and, as such, he offered reliquaries, blessed swaddling clothes and Golden Roses which were holy objects able to sustain Catholicism and maintain the faith. If these types of offerings were conventional, the pope also sent secular objects such as paintings, which represented profane themes, antique statues and small galanteries such as fans, gloves and perfumes, which is more surprising. As a matter of fact, the pope played a political role as a peacemaker between the other great European powers and defenders of the territories over which he had full jurisdiction: the Supreme Pontiff exercised both spiritual and temporal power. This dual nature can be seen in the different objects given. How did presents become instruments of power which served the pope’s interests? How did gift-giving rituals help him persuade the other sovereigns to follow his will and to maintain him as the greatest sovereign in Western Europe?

The aim of the study is to analyse Austro-papal relations in the period 1838–1848 in the context of the Italian liberal-national movement. The reactionary, backward, absolutist regime of the papal government had often been the cause of the crises in the Papal States in the pre-March period, with the most significant one being in 1831, when it was only through Austrian military intervention that the papal regime survived. The papal government was unwilling to change the course of its internal policy and transform the Papal States for the sake of both its subjects and its government. Therefore, when it came to reforming the papal regime, Metternich’s lifelong advising of the Pope was like beating a dead horse. Austria’s readiness to intervene militarily whenever requested by the Pope was the most important part of Metternich’s diplomatic passivity within his papal policy during the 1840s, although none of the local uprisings in this period required the intervention of Austrian troops The change in the Austrian chancellor’s approach to Rome emerged because of the reform course of Pius IX, who was elected Pope in the summer of 1846. The Pope’s utter disinterest and opposition to Austria after 1846 eventually resulted in the ultimate fall of Metternich’s papal policy.

The study presents and analyses events that took place at the beginning of the 20th century in connection with the election of a new pope Pius × and the ending of Right of Exclusion. The existing Secretary of State Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro played a crucial role in these events. Personal ambitions of this man and a complicated situation in foreign policy made the 1903 papal conclave an extraordinarily complex encounter of European powers, which heralded many developmental trends of the upcoming years. The constitution Commissum nobis, prohibiting the monarchic veto once and for all, was issued on 20th January 1904. The Vatican left nothing to chance and enhanced the importance of the constitution by incorporating it into another constitution that dealt with the papal election, the Vacante Sede Apostolica of 25th December 1904. At the same time it was decided that the constitution would be read out during the appointment of new cardinals, as well as after the pope’s death at the first general assembly of cardinals and then at the opening of the election conclave. The long history of jus exclusivae was formally closed by these stipulations.

Studie prezentuje a analyzuje události, k nimž došlo na počátku 20. století v souvislosti s volbou nového papeže Pia X. a ukončením práva exklusivity, při nichž sehrál hlavní úlohu dosavadní státní sekretář Mariano Rampolla del Tindaro. Osobní ambice tohoto muže a komplikované zahraničně‑politické poměry učinily z papežského konkláve v roce 1903 mimořádně komplikované střetnutí evropských mocností, jež předznamenalo mnohé vývojové trendy následujících let. 20. ledna 1904 byla vydána konstituce Commissum nobis, která panovnické veto jednou pro vždy zakazovala. Vatikán neponechal nic náhodě a význam konstituce posílil jejím vtělením do další konstituce, která se zabývala volbou papežů, Vacante Sede z 25. prosince 1904. Současně bylo stanoveno, že znění konstituce bude předneseno při jmenování nových kardinálů, dále po smrti papeže v prvním generálním shromáždění kardinálů a posléze i při zahájení volebního konkláve. Dlouhá historie ius exclusivae se těmito opatřeními formálně uzavřela.

Stylus Romanae curiae, as important element influencing, regulating and completing the practical application of the Canon­-Law rules, established from the formularies and rules of Apostolic Chancery originally. The Popes took concern at first in their general central administrative and judicial bodies exercising a control not only over the application of universal rules, but also in its completing and representing even the position of director of jurisprudence. Since then Stylus Romanae curiae started to influence not only the next development of Canon­-Law sicence, but significantly also the legal practice, especially in completing of gaps in the law, but also in interpretation and decision making repeating types of causes in the sense of administrative directives, respectivelly case authorities. Admitting the value of the source of law on the part of several canonists indeed made of it over time unwanted element that was eliminated by papacy only at the beginning of 20th century. The main goal of this article is to point out the conceptual definition and practical operation of stylus Romanae curiae and gradual weakining of its position in the Codex Law of the Cahotlic Church that culminated in the valid law.

Following the fall of the Byzantine Empire (1453) and the Empire of the Trebizond (1461) the fragmented Georgia made a desperate attempt at participating in European countries’ various efforts aimed at coalitions (political and military alike) against the Islamic Turkey posing a threat to the Christian world. In the 17th century, the captive Bagrationi dynasty managed to build up lasting trade relations with the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth and intense cultural and religious contacts with the Papacy. The dynamically changing geopolitical system in the Caucasus region ultimately predestined the Russian Empire to become Georgia’s natural ally in the subsequent century as no other country could offer tangible military assistance to Georgia.

Hlídka versus Český časopis historický (Spor o výklad církevních dějin v první polovině 20. století)

This study discusses an ideological conflict between the central periodical for historical sciences (Český časopis historický – The Czech Historical Review, CCH) and a doctrinaire Roman Catholic periodical Hlídka. It ran its course from 1918 to 1940. Whereas the CCH (published in Prague) represented professional academic writing and expressed the views of the majority of important Czech historians, Hlídka (published in Brno) had its authorship base amongst Moravian Catholic theologians, ecclesiastical historians and the representatives of other humanities. In addition to articles, both journals published a wealth of reviews and reports on contemporary specialist literature, by which they attempted to influence the standard of historiography and impact upon the historical awareness of the public. However, they differed principally in their focus – the CCH set forth liberal to moderately nationalist views of history, whereas Hlídka was militant in its defence of the inviolability of the Church and a Catholic interpretation of the past. The prolonged series of polemics involved opposing views especially with regard to the Hussite Revolution, the Reformation, re-Catholicization and religious tolerance, yet also on the role of the Papacy and international relations in the past. The controversy did not result in closing the gap between the conflicting views, but, on the contrary, intensified the gulf between the liberal and clerical standpoints, up until 1940, when both periodicals were shut down during the German occupation of the Czech Lands.
