We are as dwarfs standing on the shoulders of giants, so that although we perceive many more things than they, it is not because our vision is more piercing or our stature higher, but because we are carried and elevated to their gigantic stature. Bernard of Chartres, chancellor of a cathedral school in Gaul, used to say these words to his students in the twelfth century. They apply well to my study of Hussite history. The previous work of Frantiek M. Barto, Matthew Spinka, Frederick G. Heymann, Amedeo Molnr, Howard Kaminsky, and Frantiek mahel has been vital to my research. Without their scholarly contributions my own work would be greatly impoverished. While I have not always acquiesced in their conclusions, I have been consistently instructed by their acumen.

The work behind this book has spanned seven years and a dozen countries. My inventory of indebtedness has in that context become vast. While holding the Elizabeth Iliff Warren Research Fellowship from the Iliff School of Theology in Denver, Colorado, from 1990 to 1992, I was able to undertake preliminary work at Cambridge. Several research grants from the University of Cambridge facilitated further research in a number of central European archives. During that time Bob Scribner, my doktor vater at Cambridge, sharpened my thinking on the crucial issues of late medieval European history. His probing questions, methodological rigour and insistence on excellence, forced me ever and again to return to the sources armed with the challenges of his own scholarly erudition. , in particular, owes much to his influence.
