Abstract:

The third, and last part of the monograph focuses on phenomena and events termed by the author as “counter-revolution”. This term refers to the military, political, and ideological activities of the enemies of the extreme radicalism, i.e. the opponents of the Taborites, known as Orphans, and Hussite radicals from Prague’s New Town. Thus, the subject of reflection are actions of the Bohemian Catholic Camp, made up of the Bohemian nobility who had their own troops at their disposal and were faithful to King Sigismund of Luxembourg, and Catholic cities and towns belonging to the king and the nobility. The activity will be analysed ‒ not only military one ‒ of the Catholic Camp, undertaken both with their own forces, and ‒ later ‒ in alliance with the anti-radical fraction of the Hussite Camp. The road to that cooperation was paved with successive planned or formed agreements, treaties, pacts, and coalitions. The closing part of the book presents the last attempts of active resistance by the followers of extreme Hussitism, who did not accept the rule of the victors in the Battle of Lipany, and then of King Sigismund of Luxembourg.
