释义 | Chelčický, Peter Czech author born c. 1390, , Chelčic, Bohemia 【now in Czech Republic】 died c. 1460, , Chelčic Czech religious and political writer, the foremost thinker of the 15th-century Czech Hussite Reformation movement. A member of the south Bohemian gentry, Chelčický was much influenced by the thought of the English heretic John Wycliffe and the martyred Czech Reformer Jan Hus. An early recruit to the radical wing of the Hussite movement, Chelčický came to reject the violent military turn the radical Taborites had taken. He condemned war and capital punishment, objected to towns, commerce, and oaths, and renounced all forms of power and secular authority, espousing a primitive, egalitarian Christianity such as he imagined to have existed before the time of Constantine the Great (d. 337). Chelčický's teachings, most fully expounded in his Šít Víry (1440; “Net of the Faith”), gave rise to the sect of the Bohemian Brethren (Unitas Fratrum). The utopian, anarchistic vein of his thought influenced the novelist Leo Tolstoy (Tolstoy, Leo). |
