Description
Excerpt from The Hussite Wars
IT is impossible when studying the events connected with the life of Hus not to devote great attention to the lengthy wars in Bohemia and the neighbouring countries that were the inevitable result of his unjust condemnation, and not to realise how great the in?uence of these wars on the develop ment of Europe was. It is certainly due to the military genius of Ziika and the other Hussite leaders that Hussite teaching and Hussite thought long prevailed in Bohemia and largely in?uenced the neighbouring countries. Had the Bohemians been defeated in the battles of the Ziikov and the Vy''s''ehrad, their doctrines would have been immediately suppressed, and Hus would have appeared in history as an isolated enthusiast, such as Savonarola.
