Upon the posts and the doors of thy house": The Ten Commandments in Late Medieval Bohemia

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

This study focuses on the transmission of the texts dealing with the Decalogue in late medieval Bohemia. It presents the sources as a complex field in which textual types and linguistic codes are so closely intertwined that they are not easily untangled. What is certain is that there was a great increase of Decalogue texts starting from the last third of the fourteenth and persisting throughout the fifteenth century. The texts were popular both in the Catholic and reform environments within the divided kingdom and, interestingly, it is often difficult to decide on the basis of the texts alone, from which of the two environments they stem. The Decalogue was also often inscribed on church and house walls. Jan Hus, on his way to the council of Constance, reports that he was handing out Decalogues in every pub he visited in Germany. This study argues that in such cases the Decalogue had primarily a symbolic function.
