Popis | The article the careers and backgrounds of Hospitallers serving in the Czech Priory of the Order. The study discusses the limited character of sources regarding Hospitallers in Bohemia in the 13th century and presents in this context the careers of three members of the Order: Czech Prior John of Zvířetice, Prague Commander Pesslinus, who probably originated from a burgher family and John od Kladrubce who was a member of a significant aristocratic family near Strakonice. Secondly, the author demonstrates that members of the Czech Priory of the Order of St. John in the 14th century came mainly from three major groups including members of the powerfull Markwartinger family from Northern Bohemia, members of burgher families from Prague and members of the lesser noble family from around Strakonice, who were dependent on the lords Bawor of Strakonice or on the local convent of St. John. |
