Handling Conflict in the Late Middle Ages (Strategies, Agents, Communication)
Unfortunately, the MECERN Congress in Gdańsk (April 2020) and the symposium on Radical Religious Communities in Tábor (September 2020) were postponed due to the COVID situation. Our researchers will participate in the postponed events, re-scheduled for the next year.
On December 5, 2019 the whole research team met in Brno at the Faculty of Arts to summarize the first year of work. All three research groups presented the progress in their research. We made a plan for the next year’s congresses.
The team participated in a workshop organized by CEU in Budapest, October 17–19, 2019. Pavel Soukup introduced the project From Performativity to Institutionalization. Vojtěch Bažant, Martin Pjecha and Václav Žůrek also presented their research.
We participated in the annual meeting of the CARMEN network in Prague, September 4–5, 2020. Pavel Soukup and Martin Pjecha introduced the project to the broader community of medievalists. Pavel Soukup also gave the keynote lecture on the subject of The Hussites as a Community in the Late Medieval Church.
Our team met at the Centre for Medieval Studies in Prague to hold the first internal workshop. The collaborators from both Brno and Prague discussed the prespectives of the research and the project schedule. The next workshop will be hosted by the Brno team.
