Worksheet for High Schools WORKSHEET FOR HIGH SCHOOLS 1. Read the text and fill in the verb in correct form: Three Prague bridges The first mention of a wooden footbridge over the Moldau River can be found in the legend of St. Wenceslas (Sv. Václav). It _______ (seem) that in the 10th century it was already possible to cross the river by foot. But the wooden footbridge was often destroyed by frequent Prague floods. Judith, the wife of the king Vladislav, was instrumental in the construction of the first partly stone bridge which _________ (carry) her name and thus is known as the Judith Bridge. It was built between the years 1158 and 1173. Unfortunately the bridge ______________ (destroy) by the big spring flood in 1342. Charles IV decided not to renovate the old bridge but to build a new, stronger and more solid one. He consulted astrologists in order to find out the best date for the foundation of the bridge. He __________ (give) the exact day and time. The foundation stone was then laid down in 1357 on the 9th July at 5:31am. Notice that the numbers are magical, because they ___________ (read) the same forward and backwards. The construction of the bridge took a long time and it was most probably completed in 1411. The bridge now carries the name Charles Bridge and for centuries it was the only bridge connecting both sides of the Moldau River. Only in the 19th century when the industry ______________ (develop) heavily, it was necessary to build other bridges. Let us hope that the astrologists___________ (choose) the date well and the Charles Bridge will face successfully all the misfortunes that might come in the future and it will not be necessary to build a third bridge on the same spot. 2.

Read carefully the life story of St. Agnes of Bohemia and answer the questions. It is believed that St. Agnes of Bohemia (Sv. Anežka Česká) was born on 20th January 1211 in Prague. Her father was the king Ottokar I of Bohemia (Přemysl Otakar I.) and her mother Constance of Hungary (Konstancie Uherská), Ottokar’s second wife. At the age of three, Agnes was engaged to the Polish duke Boleslav and together with her sister Anne she was sent for education to a Cistercian convent of their aunt, St. Hedwig, in Trzebnica. After the death of her fiancé, her father sought connection with the Emperor’s house and promised Agnes to be married to Henry, 9-year-old son of the Emperor Friedrich II and sent Agnes to be brought up at the court of Leopold VI of Babenberg in Vienna. Unfortunately, Leopold VI managed to engage Henry to his own daughter and therefore the Czech princess had to return to Prague in 1225.The following year the delegation of the English king Henry III Plantagenet arrived in Prague and offered to Ottokar to engage Agnes to their king. The engagement was settled, but in 1229 Henry cancelled it. The last offer came from the Emperor Friedrich II himself, but Agnes refused him. Agnes saw the example of her cousin St. Elizabeth of Hungary and she decided to enter the order of Poor Clares nuns. With her brother Wenceslas I (Václav I.) she founded the hospital of St. Francis in Prague and in 1234 she became the first abbess of the new convent of Czech Poor Clares order. She and her brother built beautiful buildings used both as a convent for the Poor Clares nuns and monastery of the Franciscan monks. In this large complex you would not only find two monastic buildings and two churches, but also rooms used by hospital brotherhood founded by the princess in 1233. This brotherhood became later an independent order of the Knights of the Cross with the Red Star. Agnes led by the ideals of St. Francis and St. Clare held closely to the original order rules and was exchanging letters with St. Clare and also with popes Gregory IX, Innocence IV and Urban IV. The vigorous abbess was a pious follower of the Franciscan ideal and wise counselor to her royal family. www.charlesbridgemuseum.com In 1249 she negotiated peace between her brother Wenceslas and his son Přemysl, margrave of Moravia, and later she used her diplomatic skills in the argument of her nephew Přemysl Otakar II and Rudolph I Habsburg. She strived for pure holiness and modesty connected to love to her sisters-nuns, the poor and the abandoned. Agnes died in the St. Francis convent in Prague on 2nd March 1282. Since 1328 Elizabeth of Bohemia had been striving for Agnes‘ canonization, but these demands had not been heard for centuries, even though Prague archbishops, rulers and grandmasters of the Knights of the Cross had been calling for it. First in 1874 she was beatified on the demand of Prague Archbishop Schwarzenberg. Thus the worship of St. Agnes spread outside the order of the Knights of the Cross. At last, on 12th November 1989 she was canonized by the Pope John Paul II and the Czech royal saint is therefore also connected to the fall of the Communist regime in Czechoslovakia in the same year. • What was the name of Agnes’ mother? ................................................................................... • Which order did Agnes join and in what year? ......................................................................... • How many years have passed since her death? .......................................................................... • How old was she when she died? ........................................................................................... • With whom did she exchange letters? ..................................................................................... • Name all the men Agnes was engaged to. ................................................................................ • Which famous king was her nephew? ..................................................................................... • Which order was founded from Agnes’ initiative? .....................................................................

  • St. Elizabeth of Hungary
    St. Elizabeth of Hungary Daily Saints / Saints Fuente: www.ewtn.com Also called St. Elizabeth of Thuringia, born in Hungary, probably at Pressburg, 1207; died at Marburg, Hesse, 17 November (not 19 November), 1231. She was a daughter of King Andrew II of Hungary (1205-35) and his wife Gertrude, a member of the family of the Counts of Andechs-Meran; Elizabeth's brother succeeded his father on the throne of Hungary as Bela IV; the sister of her mother, Gertrude, was St. Hedwig, wife of Duke Heinrich I, the Bearded, of Silesia, while another saint, St. Elizabeth (Isabel) of Portugal (d. 1336), the wife of the tyrannical King Diniz of that country, was her great-niece. In 1211 a formal embassy was sent by Landgrave Hermann I of Thuringia to Hungary to arrange, as was customary in that age, a marriage between his eldest son Hermann and Elizabeth, who was then four years old. This plan of a marriage was the result of political considerations and was intended to be the ratification of a great alliance which in the political schemes of the time it was sought to form against the German Emperor Otto IV, a member of the house of Guelph, who had quarrelled with the Church. Not long after this the little girl was taken to the Thuringian court to be brought up with her future husband and, in the course of time, to be betrothed to him. The court of Thuringia was at this period famous for its magnificence. Its centre was the stately castle of the Wartburg, splendidly placed on a hill in the Thuringian Forest near Eisenach, where the Landgrave Hermann lived surrounded by poets and minnesingers, to whom he was a generous patron.

  • The History of Books and Libraries in Bohemia
    Digital Editing of Medieval Manuscripts - Intellectual Output 1: Resources for Editing Medieval Texts (Paleography, Codicology, Philology) The history of books and libraries in Bohemia Michal Dragoun (Charles Univeristy in Prague) While books were initially rare in medieval Bohemia, they would come to play an important role in the lives of all social classes by the end of the Middle Ages. The pace of that advancement was not, however, constant. Many factors contributed to spread of books and to their use, some of them pushed the advancement forward significantly, others less significantly. Books were initially a monopoly of the Church and its institutions but gradually, the circle of book users extended to the laity and more and more texts came to be written in vernacular languages. Acknowledging the abundance or research into medieval books and libraries more generally, this overview will comment only on the most significant moments in the book culture of medieval Bohemia. There are two fundamental turning points in the history of Medieval Bohemian book culture – these were the establishment of a university in Prague, and the Hussite Reformation. To provide a brief overview of types of libraries, it is necessary to categorize them and study the development of individual categories. In any case, the Hussite period was the real turning point for a number of them. Sources The sheer abundance of sources provides the basis for a comprehensive overview of Bohemian book culture. The manuscripts themselves are the most significant source. However, the catalogues used to study Bohemian collections tend to be very old. As a result, the records are often incomplete and contextual information is often unavailable.

  • Early Followers of Francis and Clare
    1 Early Followers of Francis and Clare This list highlights some of the early followers of Francis and Clare who lived mostly within the first one hundred years of the Franciscan Movement. It reflects many different sources, not all of which agree with one another! If some of the accounts were not in agreement with specific dates, the compilers did their best to reflect accurate information. Clare’s group was known as the Poor Ladies of San Damiano, Damianites or the Poor Ladies of Assisi [known today as the Order of St. Clare or Poor Clares (O.S.C. or P.C.; Second Order); the Third Order of St. Francis (T.O.S.F.; Third Order Secular) is known today as the Secular Franciscan Order (O.F.S., Ordo Franciscanus Saecularis).

  • WEST EUROPEAN SEAL MATRICES from COLLECTION of NICOLAY LIKHACHEV the Article Discusses the Corpus of West European Seal Matrices Kept at the Scientific Archives of St
    Вестник СПбГУ. История. 2017. Т. 62. Вып. 2 E. I. Nosova WEST EUROPEAN SEAL MATRICES FROM COLLECTION OF NICOLAY LIKHACHEV The article discusses the corpus of West European seal matrices kept at the Scientific Archives of St. Petersburg Institute of History of the Russian Academy of Sciences. Previously, they were part of a collection of academician N. P. Likhachev (1862–1936). In the course of attribution we have found three matrices which seem to be absolutely identical to those from the museum collection in the town of Bassano del Grappa, Italy, which previously belonged to the Count Antonio Maria Luigi Calzamatta (1827–1905). This enabled a clarification of the earlier history of the two collections, which proved a genealogical connection with the collection of Count Giovanni Lazzara (1621–1690). This collec- tion was so well known that Christina, Queen of Sweden, wanted to buy it. Evidently after the death of Giovanni Lazzara collection was sold to the Cabinet of Louis XIV (The Cabinet of medals of the French National Library). However, this theory is not justified. In another version the collection was bought by Nicolas-Joseph Foucault (1643–1721), politician and honorary member of the Academy of Inscriptions and Belles-Lettres. After changing several owners, Foucault’s collection came in 1727 in the cabinet of medals, except the seals. At the same time, some of the matrices from Lazzara’s collec- tion are kept nowadays in the Bottacin Museum in Padua. Most likely, the seals did not leave Italy, and N. P. Lihachev acquired his matrices there, but not in France.

While Elizabeth was very young, her father arranged for her to be married to Ludwig IV of Thuringia, a German nobleman. Because of this plan, Elizabeth was sent away at the age of four for education at the court of the Landgrave of Thuringia. Elizabeth's mother, Gertrude, was murdered in 1213 when Elizabeth was just six-years- old. According to history, the murder was carried out by Hungarian noblemen due to the conflict between Germans and the Hungarian nobles. From this point on, Elizabeth's perspective on life and death dramatically changed and she sought peace with prayer.

It has been built in the path of the Amber Trail connecting Northern and Southern Europe. It is a part of the expressway from Gdańsk to Vienna. 20 km are in operation, 33 km in preparation. Maximum transport intensity is 42,000 vehicles per 24 hours. A part of the motorway was built in line of the motorway from 1939 which should have connected Vienna and Wroclaw and which has never been completed due to the war. The section from Brno to Pohořelice is in operation since 1996. The finishing of the highway is blocked by environmental activists. They argue mainly with environmental damage of a sensible territory, with increasing transport load by transit and they suggest different option namely using D2 motorway (section Brno-Břeclav) and its linking-up in direction to the Vienna. Austrian side is constructing the motorway Wien – Drassenhofen which should connect the Czech R52 near Mikulov. In 2010 Supreme Administrative Court accepted suggestions of two municipalities (Bavory and Dolní Dunajovice) and some natural persons and cancelled the territorial plan of the Břeclav district including the R52 road.
