I. Studie Ondřej Schmidt Farní síť plzeňského děkanátu do doby husitské The Parish network of the Pilsen deanery to the Hussite period Based on an analysis of the official books of the Prague archbishopric and other sources, the study endeavours to analyse the structure and development of the parish network on the territory of the Pilsen deanery from its beginnings until the Hussite period. It first attempts to outline the dynamics of the process of the creation of the parish organization on the territory of this ecclesiastical-administrative whole; it subsequently pays attention to some thematic circles: the issue of church patronage law, the parish clergy, the material assurance of the benefices and the influence of the papal curia on the functioning of the deanery.
