Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from John Huss: The Witness
IN writing this book my aim has been to give a plain, straightforward, and concise account of the life, death, and in?uence of one of the world's most inspiring witnesses of the truth. In so doing I have used the standard authorities - those which form the basis of every modern discus sion of the life Of John Huss. For the oppor tunity to use the most indispensable of all these authorities - Von der Hardt's Rerum Concilii Constantiensis, tomus IV, Palacky's Geschichte von Bohmen, and the same author's Documenta Mag. Johannis Hus Vitam, doctrinam illus trantia - I am indebted to the courtesy of the Li brarian Of Harvard University. In quoting from the proceedings of the Council of Constance - al though I have had Von der Hardt constantly on hand for reference - I have used Lenfant's His tory of the Council Of Constance, which is largely a translation of the former.
