VALE, PATER OPTIME, ET VENI. THE CULT OF ST. JOHN OF CAPISTRANO IN THE TERRITORY OF PRESENT-DAY SLOVAKIA IN THE MIDDLE AGES

HLAVAČKOVÁ, Miriam. Vale, pater optime, et veni. The Cult of St. John of Capistrano in the Territory of present-day Slovakia in the Middle Ages. Historický časopis, 2021, 69, 5, pp. 815–837, Bratislava. In spite of the fact that no locality now in the territory of Slovakia but then a part of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary, appears in the itinerary of the Franciscan, Church lawyer and reformer of the order John of Capistrano, news of the “miracle working preacher” reached here and motivated people to travel to him in the hope of being healed of various illnesses, to write letters to him, to support observant foundations, or to join monasteries founded or reformed by him. The present study based on sources such as documents on acceptance into the Confraternity of Observant Franciscans, collections of miracles at the Collegio San Isidoro in Rome, medieval charters and chronicles, is devoted to the veneration of Capistrano and its spread in our territory. However, the aim of the study is not to take developments connected with Capistrano out of the context of the history of the Kingdom of Hungary or to place them in isolation, but to point out that this theme deserves attention from present-day Slovak historiography..
