STUDIA ET COMMENTATIONES

PETR KREUZ, Vývoj pražského městského práva do vydání městského zákoníku z roku 1579 [Development of Prague Municipal Law up Until the Publication of the City Code of 1579]
15–58

Abstract
The study is devoted to two key sources or rather the foundations for the codification of the municipal law of the Kingdom of Bohemia from 1579 (the Koldín Code), i.e., the original Old Town law and the adopted Brno and Brno-Jihlava law. The first part of the study describes the law that originated in the 14th and 15th century directly in Prague’s Old Town and how this law was reflected in the final version of the codification. The second part describes the course of the reception of the Brno and Brno-Jihlava law in the Old Town in the 15th century and the first half of the 16th century. It was precisely this law that finally became one of the key parts of the Koldín Code.

Keywords: municipal law – codification – Koldín Code – law of Prague’s Old Town – Brno and Brno-Jihlava law – Cursus sententiarum civilium

MARIE BUŇATOVÁ, Nevěrný cukrář Jakub Manze. Studie k přistěhovalectví a každodennosti na Starém Městě pražském na přelomu 16. a 17. století [The Unfaithful Confectioner Jakub Manze. A Study of Immigration and Everyday Life in Prague’s Old Town at the Turn of the 17th Century]
59–101

Abstract
The study deals with the life of French confectioner Jakub Manze, who settled in Prague’s Old Town in the 1580s. In 1594–1595, Manze accompanied imperial counsellor Ernfried Minkvic of Minckvicburk on his diplomatic missions to north Germany, Poland and Russia. While the experienced politician Minkvic took part on behalf of the emperor in negotiating the terms of a peace treaty between Sweden and Russia at Narva (negotiations took place in 1595 in the village of Tjavzino/Teusina), the stay abroad mainly brought troubles for Manze in his private life. These were the result of suspicions that despite being married in Prague to confectioner Kateřina, née Mejšnarová, he had found another woman in Krakow, Anna de la Fontana. According to some people, he had not only started a family with her, but had in fact married Anna. After the entire matter became known in Prague and Manze returned to the city, his wife Kateřina filed a lawsuit against him. Subsequently, the trial before the Old Town court became a heated dispute between the couple, with over forty witnesses providing testimony on their private life and confectionery business. Based on their testimony and other sources, the study not only reconstructs the twists and turns of their mutual relationships and the everyday life of the confectionery trade, but also attempts to provide a broader view of the neighbour relationships of burghers (male and female) and other inhabitants of Rudolfinian Prague, many of which, like Manze and his wife, were first-generation immigrants.

Keywords: Early Modern period – Prague – Poland – Russian – immigration – everyday life – marriage – confectionary craft – diplomacy under Rudolf II

PAVLÍNA GOTTSTEINOVÁ, Malá Strana a Hradčany ve světle vizitačního protokolu tereziánského katastru z roku 1726 [The Lesser Quarter and Hradčany in the Light of the Visitation Protocol of the Theresian Cadastre From 1726]
103–172

Abstract
The study describes housing development in the Lesser Quarter and Hradčany on the basis of a source of a tax nature – the visitation tables of the Theresian cadastre from 1726. The work builds on the earlier analysis of this source for Prague’s Old Town and New Town. A larger part of the article is devoted to the Lesser Quarter, as Hradčany was not only the smallest Prague town, but was also characterised by a high share of registered palaces, which were not subject to visitation during preparations for the first Theresian cadastre. Although the main attention is paid to the houses under the jurisdiction of the Lesser Quarter and Hradčany town halls, the situation on special local rights is also briefly summarised in order to provide a full image of both towns. In the chapters on houses in the Lesser Quarter and Hradčany, the question of the development of the total number of houses between 1654, when the first Bohemian cadastre was issued, and 1726, when in-person visitation took place in left-bank Prague, is given equal treatment. This is followed by an analysis of houses from the perspective of their tax liability, a rough classification of house owners with a focus on the urban class and an examination of real estate prices. The exterior appearance of the houses is evaluated on the basis of their construction situation, building material and the number of floors. Another subject addressed by the article is rental housing, especially the number of houses providing units for rent, the number of tenants and the rent paid for these spaces. The final subject is pubs and freight houses, primarily their number and the volume of brewed and consumed beer.

Keywords: Quarter – Hradčany – Early Modern period – Theresian cadastre – houses

OLGA FEJTOVÁ – JAROSLAVA MENDELOVÁ, „Byli rebely, a proto zasloužili trestu.“ Měšťané a staroměstská exekuce v roce 1621 [“They Were Rebels and Therefore Deserved Punishment”. Burghers and the Old Town Execution in 1621]
175–236

Abstract
On June 21, 1621, a group of burghers, mainly from the Prague towns, were executed on the Old Town Square, a group whose size far exceeded the number of representatives of the higher estates punished as leaders of the Bohemian Revolt (1618−1620). Their guilt or contribution to the revolt was challenged or marginalised by historiography from the very beginning. In the context of the development of city administration and city estate policy in the pre-White Mountain period and the activities of directors for the city estate, the Prague town halls and burghers during the estate uprising, the article documents the role of individual sentenced burghers in the uprising and the strategy of their punishment by the administration of the territorial lord. The text is supplemented with biographies of the burghers that were beheaded or were sentenced to beheading on the Old Town Square.

Keywords: Early Modern period – 21 June 1621 – Prague – Bohemian Revolt – Old Town execution – city administration – city estate

OLGA FEJTOVÁ, „Můj ortel zní, že mám z rathouzu býti oběšen…“ Kutnaurové ze Sonnenštejna – životní osudy staroměstské bratrské měšťanské rodiny v neklidné době konfesijních zvratů [“I Have Been Condemned to Hang From the Town Hall…” The Kutnaurs of Sonnenstein – the Life of an Old Town Burgher Family of Members of the Unity of Brethren in the Turbulent Times of Religious Upheaval]
237–274

Abstract
The article based on the research of sources presents the life of the Czech Brethren Kutnaur of Sonnenstein family, members of which were among the participants in the uprising from its beginning in 1618 and who were executed on the Old Town Square for their participation. Their lives reflect all the fundamental moments of the religious and political development of the Czech Lands and the towns of Prague from the 1590s up to the end of the 17th century. Above all, this was the rapid entry of members of the Prague congregation of the Unity of Brethren into the public sphere after 1609 and the promotion of the interests of this faith, their active participation in the council uprisings in Prague, the exemplary punishment after the defeat of the Bohemian Revolt, emigration as an escape from the re-Catholicisation policy of the royal court, difficulties in emigration, service in the Swedish army and at the Saxon Court, repatriation and acceptance of Catholicism, active participation in defending the towns of Prague against the Swedish attack at the end of the Thirty Years’ War and, finally, a respectable civil service career in urban and land administration in the second half of the 17th century.

Keywords: Early Modern period – Prague – Bohemian Revolt – Old Town execution – Unity of Brethren – city administration

KAMIL BOLDAN, Knihvazačská dílna staroměstského Mistra se supralibros Vyšehradské kapituly CW [The Bookbinding Workshop of an Old Town Master With the Supralibros of the Vyšehrad Chapter CW]
275–325

Abstract
The study is devoted to an anonymous bookbinding workshop that was in operation around 1484–1500 in Prague’s Old Town and which decorated leather book covers using the blind stamping technique. The study describes the ornamentation of the employed bookbinding tools and the composition of decoration on preserved volumes. The work documents the fact that the craftsman not only bound books but even sold early prints as a sales representative of a certain Augsburg wholesaler.

Keywords: blind stamped bindings – leather stamping tools – bookbinders in late medieval Prague – incunabula – medieval manuscripts – book trade in the 15th century

KRISTÝNA KALOUSKOVÁ, Millesimovský palác č. p. 597 na Starém Městě pražském. Dějiny a stavebně-historický vývoj památkově chráněného objektu [Millesimo Palace, Parcel No. 597 in Prague’s Old Town. History and Historical Building Development of a Listed Building]
327–384

Abstract
The presented study deals with the significance, an outline of ownership relationships and the historical building development of the Millesimo Palace located in the historical centre of Prague (in Celetná Street in Prague’s Old Town), whose existence is documented in the 14th century; the foundations of this building also contain the remains of a Romanesque house from the 12th century. Although the palace is mentioned in some current publications and handbooks on the history of Prague’s historical buildings or listed buildings, these publications are typically based only on older building history research and therefore many archival information sources and some of the literature related to the topic have been left out. The study attempts to rectify this deficit in the existing description and history of this building.

Keywords: cultural monuments – listed building – history – historical building research development – development of ownership relationships – Bohemia – Prague – 14th–20th century
