Silesian Duke Charles I of Münsterberg and Oels and His Power Aspirations
Original language description
Duke Charles I of Münsterberg and Oels certainly holds an eminent position in the pantheon of the most notable Silesian political figures. The offspring of the Podiebrad family and grandson of the Bohemian King George of Podiebrad both noticeably influenced events occurring under the Jagiellonian reign and the Central-European events following the 1526 arrival of the Habsburgs to the Bohemian throne. The historical stage marked by his birth and death was one of the most turbulent periods of the Bohemian Kingdom, Silesia and European history. At this eventful time, the Münsterberg duke quietly grew in power and did not hesitate to establish various religious and political corporations and beneficial relations with prominent European dynasties of dukes, mainly the Piasts, Wettins and Hohenzollerns - and it must be noted that he was quite successful in this. His politics were already not so straightforwardly assertive but rather, conciliatory and more diplomatic. The duke's gradual estrangement from the Czech milieu clearly shows how the political and religious atmosphere changed in Prague and Bohemia. It was he who unambiguously moved to Silesia and was interested in imperial and Central-European events, at the same time striving for the country's larger political independence.
