TI - The Characteristic Features of Religious Polemics of The Hussite Era –An Outline of the Issue AB - The aim of the paper is to outline the characteristic features of religious polemics, held during the Hussite era, i.e. in the years 1419–1471. The forms of polemics, from direct correspondence to treaties, were presented in the article. Special attention was devoted to the specifi c motives that weren’t the direct object of the polemics, but shaped their rhetoric and determined the fi eld of interpretation. They include the attitude towards cultural and ecclesial tradition, the concept of the Antichrist etc. Finally, examples of manipulation of quotes that were used in the argumentation, from taking words out of context to forgery, were presented.
