Learning outcomes

Diplomatics is one of the basic courses necessary for archival practice. It deals with the material that archivists encounter most frequently, namely official documents from the earliest times to the present. However, it is not exclusively concerned with official documents, but also pays attention to the institutions (offices, authorities) where these documents were created. In this course, students will become familiar with diplomatic terminology; the development of Czech diplomatic studies with regard to the broader European context; editions of diplomatic sources; the typology of diplomatic documents and their changes from the 12th to the mid-19th century. Further attention is paid to the offices of Czech rulers, municipal, aristocratic, and ecclesiastical offices, registers, and cadastral documents.
Students will gain knowledge of diplomatic editions and basic diplomatic literature; the development of diplomatic documents in the basic strata of Czech society until the mid-19th century; and the skills to recognize, evaluate, describe, and edit diplomatic documents.
