Description
The second volume of the History of the Cistercian Order in Bohemia contains a comprehensive description of the history of Czech Cistercian monasteries founded in the 13th and 14th centuries: male monasteries in Vyšší Brod, Zlatá Koruna, Svaté Pole, Zbraslav, and Skalica, and female monasteries in Pohled and Sezemice. The text is supplemented by extensive photographic documentation and a list of source and secondary literature. The introductory volume of the History of the Cistercian Order in Bohemia 1142-1420, subtitled Foundations of the 12th Century, was first published in 1998, on the occasion of the 900th anniversary of the founding of the Cistercian Order. Fifteen years later, a second, revised, and expanded edition enriched with further archival studies and new findings from domestic and foreign research is coming to market.
