Honour Disputes in the Seventeenth and Eighteenth Centuries
HONNEROVÁ, Jana
The theme of the presented bachelor thesis are disputes concerning honour in the years 1650-1750 on the Třeboň estate. This thesis aims at analysing honour disputes among inhabitants of townlets and villages on the Třeboň estate in the time in question on the basis of criminal law sources, suits of participants of the honour disputes, correspondence between the mayor and town council and top trustee of the estate. Actual participants of the honour disputes and the possibilities of the defence of their own honour will be in the centre of attention. Neither the characteristic surroundings in which the honour disputes took place nor the sort of defamations will be omitted. A typology of the defamations will be formed from the records of verbal offences. A particular honour dispute of an orphan named Sofie Renčová from Lomnice nad Lužnicí will be studied as well from the historical-anthropological perspective.
