„In scamno nobilium“. Několik poznámek o vztazích šlechty a pražských univerzit v pozdním středověku

This study deals with the relations between the Prague university and both Czech and foreign nobility in the Middle Ages. It challenges the traditional notion of nobility’s resistance against universities and traces actual forms of interaction, from nobles studying at universities through financial support of students and the university, all the way to university graduates finding employment with noble families. Prague medieval universities are presented as a model for possible future study of relations between universities and nobility in Europe.

Abstract

This study deals with the relations between the Prague university and both Czech and foreign nobility in the Middle Ages. It challenges the traditional notion of nobility’s resistance against universities and traces actual forms of interaction, from nobles studying at universities through financial support of students and the university, all the way to university graduates finding employment with noble families. Prague medieval universities are presented as a model for possible future study of relations between universities and nobility in Europe.
