There are many uncertainties about the production and dissemination of vocal polyphony manuscripts from Prague illuminators’ and scribes’ ateliers compared with the dissemination of monophonic vocal manuscripts. The only known “workshop” producing manuscripts with primarily polyphonic music is the one led by Master Jan Kantor Starý († 1582) in Prague’s New Town. However, the number of surviving manuscripts suggests that more “workshops” might have existed in Prague at the turn of the 16th and 17th centuries. The goal of this study is to ascertain if there were any other ateliers in Prague producing vocal polyphony manuscripts during the analysed period. The findings are based on recent palaeographic and codicological analyses of the selected group of polyphonic sources written by identical scribal hands: Kutná Hora Codex from 1593 (Czech Museum of Music, Prague), Trubka’s Gradual from 1604 (Prague City Archives, Prague), the Partbook of the St. Barbara Literary Brotherhood in Přeštice from 1619 (National Library of the Czech Republic, Prague) and a bifolio from an unknown partbook in the Gradual of the St. Castulus Church from 1580 (Library of the Archbishop’s Chateau, Kroměříž). The comparison of the analysed scribal hands indicates the existence of an atelier that was probably from the milieu of the royal court. Systematic inquiries into the professional production of polyphonic manuscripts should thus continue because that is the only way to better and fully understand the musical culture of the Czech lands during the Renaissance.

The paper summarizes the life and work of the important Czech legal historian Jiří Kejř, focusing on the period of his twenty-year tenure at the Institute of State and Law of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences. His research interests focused on the Czech Middle Ages, specifically on the administrative and legal history of the Hussite period, especially the history of medieval cities, the University of Prague, the personality of Master Jan Hus and codicology. Moreover, Jiří Kejř authored a number of analytical studies and several synthesizing monographs. His works were based on a thorough study of manuscripts. His works from periods of oppression of freedom bear no trace of the ideological pressure prevailing at the time of their creation. They still have a high scientific value, so other researchers cannot neglect his work.

Příspěvek shrnuje život a dílo významného českého právního historika Jiřího Kejře se zaměřením na období jeho dvacetiletého působení v Ústavu státu a práva Československé akademie věd. Jeho badatelský zájem se soustředil na český středověk, konkrétně na správní a právní dějiny období husitství, zvláště na dějiny středověkých měst, pražské univerzity, na osobnost Mistra Jana Husa a také na kodikologii. Byl autorem množství analytických studií i několika syntetizujících monografií. Jeho práce byly založeny na důkladném studiu rukopisů. Díla, která napsal v časech nesvobody, nenesou stopy ideologického tlaku panujícího v době jejich vzniku. Stále mají vysokou vědeckou hodnotu, takže další badatelé nemohou jeho práce opominout.
