Wycliffism and Hussitism: Contexts, Methods, Perspectives

Original language description

This 3-day conference, bring together scholars from Oxford, Prague, and other academic centres, explore the complex relationships between Wycliffite and Hussite thinking and textual production. This is a major topic of transnational interdisciplinary research. The conference will have a primary focus on two key aspects of Wycliffite and Hussite thought. First, their location in a pan-European landscape of religious and intellectual controversy, from England in the west to Bohemia and Poland in the east. Second, on questions of methodology: i.e. the philosophical, exegetical, textual-critical and other scholarly methods that Wycliffites and Hussites developed, defined, appropriated and critiqued in the course of their endeavour to produce a range of learned and quasi-learned texts, in Latin as well as in vernacular tongues. The conference therefore address the following themes while bearing the above foci in mind: intellectual history, philosophy of language, Wegestreit, impact on intellectual life and on universities, methods in exegesis and eschatology, Biblical translation and translation of other learned discourses, interaction of learned and ‘quasi-learned’ discourses, devotional and other reading for the laity, international contexts/ exchanges/ synergies, especially the Councils of Constance and Basel, public intellectuals and the role of the theological magisterium, the transfer of Wycliffite and Hussite ideas across Europe, anti-Hussite polemics, afterlife of conciliar and other condemnations.
