Education, educational handbooks and school literature in the Unity of Brethren in the period preceding the Battle of White Mountain
Języki publikacji
Abstrakty
Throughout its entire existence, the Unity of Brethren’s approach to education was very cautious in the period preceding the Battle of White Mountain. Education – together with upbringing – constituted a coherent complex the aim of which was to gain basic knowledge and to acquire doctrinal basics of the Unity, as well as practical skills. Until the middle of the 16th century, the Unity of Brethren’s approach to education was ambivalent – since its beginnings, the Unity did not refuse basic education (reading and writing), but its relationship to higher education was reserved. Yet in the end, the higher education started to be valued as well, partly owing to external circumstances. Lay members of the Unity of Brethren were being educated in schools established by congregations of the Brethren, while upbringing and education of future priests of the Unity took place directly in the houses of the Brethren. In both cases, the Brethren used textbooks and other aids coming from domestic printing offices, as well as those of foreign origin. Youth priests of the Unity were also sent to study at foreign educational institutions, from which they brought many books upon their return. These books could later become a basis for their personal book collection, as is evidenced by the book inventory of priest Bohuslav Jafet († 1615) who had studied at Calvinist universities and academies.
