Publication Date: | 2015 | Handle Link: | https://hdl.handle.net/1959.11/23252 | Abstract: | Michael de Causis can reasonably be characterised as unscrupulous, unethical, ruthless, malevolent, and dishonest; hardly a compelling resumé. His name is known to all those familiar with the last five years in the life of Jan Hus. Investigating the broad range of sources from the Hus affair reveals that Michael de Causis exerted influence on the former Prague inquisitor Mařík Rvačka, the canon lawyer Jiří Bor, the conciliar ideologue Dietrich Niem, and Pope John XXIII, among others. We find him working hallways and courtrooms at the curia, enmeshed in politics and power-brokering and wielding influence over legal proceedings. | Publication Type: | Journal Article | Source of Publication: | Filosoficky Casopis, 10(Special Issue 2: The Bohemian Reformation and Religious Practice), p. 123-143 | Publisher: | Filozoficky Ustav, Akademie Ved Ceske Republiky [Philosophical Institute, Academy of Sciences of the Czech Republic] | Place of Publication: | Czech Republic | ISSN: | 0015-1831 | Fields of Research (FoR) 2008: | 210307 European History (excl.
