Prague, Jan Hus and Prague University

The book delves into the Czech Reformation's roots at Prague University, highlighting its role in addressing the late medieval church's crisis. Central to this movement is John Hus, a former student and rector, whose radical ecclesiology challenged church hierarchy and fostered a distinct Czech identity intertwined with messianic elements. It explores how the university and Prague created an environment that diverged from contemporary Christian ecumenism, ultimately shaping the Reformation's trajectory and its impact on Czech medieval society.
