dc.description.abstract-translated |
Religious and lay fraternities played an important role on the religious, social and cultural scene of the towns as they could take part in activities of municipal administration authorities and also influence activities of municipal school. Activities of fraternities were mainly a matter of their own members, but some actions of ceremonial character grew into a „citywide“ event or at least they were reflected by most of the municipality.
This contribution focuses on the fraternities in royal towns of the North-western Bohemia, which due to their different denomination, nationality and social-economical conditions provide a wide range of modifications of given topic. Five royal towns are concerned – from the point of view of its importance headed by the town of Litoměřice and Žatec, followed by the town of Kadaň, Most, Louny and Ústí nad Labem.
The aim of this contribution is not a mapping of activities of these fraternities, but a mapping of their donators – it means those burghers, who decided to support the fraternities by a legacy of a part of their property regardless whether they were members of fraternities or just supporters. The method is based on studying burghers´testaments which were preserved in the form of documents or as records in municipal books in the particular localities from the period of the 16 and 17 century. For acquiring enough information on the donators of fraternities we used almost 1800 last wills, when about 5% of testaments contain legacies to fraternities.
The legacies were mostly of financial character. Amounts of money ranged from 2 to 130 threescores (1 threescore= 60 pieces) of Meissen groschen. Some of financial gifts were exactly intended for example for hymnbooks, wax, candles or books. Beside the money there were bequeathed also wages, real estates or beverages ( beer, wine). Absolute majority of donators of municipal corporations came from middle class, they were mostly artisans with one house in a town or in a suburb, although legacies from socially lower class were registered too. In the town of Žatec an exceptional situation occured, where donators of literary fraternities came from families materially and intelectually belonging to municipal elites. More than half of donators did not have their own families. Widowed people, particularly widows comprised a distinct proportion among these people. Women comprised a half of donators in all studied towns, sometimes the number of them was slightly higher than a half. Half of the donators bequeathed certain part of their properties to the church, guild, they donated to the hospital or they supported realization of some buildings beneficial for public.
For answering question such as how was activity of corporations reflected or appreciated by a municipal community, testaments could give only partial answer. If one tries to get more integral picture it is necessary to take into account also other types of resources. |
