Peter Chelcicky - The Net Of Faith

Post by Heirbyadoption »

Are any of you familiar with this work, The Net Of Faith? Also, does anybody have access to, or reference to, a digital copy of it in Czech? Or whether there has been any further translation beyond the 1947 partial translation by Enrico Molnar?

One last attempt. Surely one of you fastidious historians or copious readers on here might bite.

Hello Heir
Knight will bite.

The wikipedia page on Peter Chelcicky has a link for Enrico C. S. Molnár’s thesis on the Internet Archive, which you probably already have.

Molnár’s bibliography has this item:

Smetánka, Emil, ed., Sít víry Petra Chelcického. Prague: Comenium, 1912. Also a revised new edition with enlarged introduction. Prague: Melantrich, 1929.

Are you familiar with Worldcat? I used the advanced search of Worldcat to search for the title Siet viery and found a digital edition.

The 1912 edition is available on Hatha Trust Digital Library. The 1929 version also appears there, but is limited search only.

The Czech reader : history, culture, politics, (Durham, NC: Duke University Press, 2010) includes an excerpt from The Net of Faith. The notes show they took the excerpt from Molnár. I haven’t found a more recent reference to a translation of the entire work in English. It would be useful for you to check out this reader.

If you haven’t already, see also Petr Chelčický: A Radical Separatist in Hussite Bohemia by Massey L.Wagner (Scottsdale, Penn.: Herald Press, 1983).

Heir, just now, i found this in my messages for you. :)

Most or all of this drama, humiliation, wasted taxpayer money could be spared -
with even modest attempt at presenting balanced facts from the start.
