The History of the Coat - of - Arms of Dohalský of Dohalice
Maličký, Pavel ; Bláhová, Marie (advisor) ; Županič, Jan (referee)
The aim of this work is to draw attention to the amount of unsatisfactorily answered questions up to this day connected with the use of the aristocratic seal and particularly the sealing-stick. An example of the analysis of a small set of sphragistic and heraldic monuments of the Bořek-Dohalský aristocratic family from Dohalice confi rms the presumed fact of mine that the generally accepted rules of heraldry and sphragistics are often dissociated to that extent that their true meaning is to be observed. It seems that social and family ties often more aff ect the written drawing-ups (lending of sealing-sticks) than strict interpretation of the law. The work suggests that similar development can be expected in other families, and at the same time it warns us that the presence of diplomatic anomalies can signifi cantly shift our view of written drawing-ups from the very existence of the seal to its end. The results of this work are therefore a challenge to deeper syntheses on a similar topic. Keywords: sphragistics, nobility, aristocratic seal, sealing-stick, coat of arms, emblem, Bořek-Dohalský from Dohalice
