Knihtisk, zbožnost, konfese v zemích Koruny české doby poděbradské a jagellonské

Seven articles look at the fate of letterpress in the lands of the Czech Crown since the late 60s of the 15th century. The authors observe the different use of the new typographic medium in communication, ecclesiastical administration, liturgical operation or the devotional practice of the dominant Utraquist and minority Catholic confessions, taking into account the controversies with the Unity of Brethren and the Early Reformation Journalism. Their probes sharpen the image of utraquism, which until the 1920s kept a certain distance from the printed news, unlike the more receptive environment of the Catholic Church.--Publisher's website.
