Description:
Unlike the pre-White Mountain period, the development of the city administration in the royal city of Brno has not yet been systematically studied for the decades of the early modern period post-1620. The present contribution thus represents a kind of first probe into the mode of operation, structure and competences of the city council in terms of its political-administrative, economic and judicial functions from the post-White Mountain period to the mid-18th century, marked by the first phase of Theresian administrative reforms. The preliminary results presented are for the most part based on research of sources of a normative nature concerning the gradual reduction by the state of the originally autonomous competencies of the city council to the levels of executive power indicated. Although renewals of the council corps took place in Brno in the early decades of the 18th century in what were in principle ‘free’ elections, from 1710 on it was the monarch alone who confirmed the councillors in office. and Etatistic interventions manifested themselves in all these areas, one of the most burdensome being the establishment in 1726 of a special economic directorate, subordinate to the provincial office, to control the financial management of the city. The author deliberately traces the culmination of these restrictive measures by the state only until the middle of the 18th century, when the municipality became a complex structured office. These reforms were only a harbinger of other fundamental changes in the functioning of the city administration in general in the 1780s, when the mayor became a civil servant and his deputies were elected by indirect election. However, the impact of the gradual etatization and bureaucratization of the executive apparatus of the leading royal Moravian city will need to be substantiated in the future by thorough source analyses in order to objectively ascertain the impact of the above-mentioned measures on the entire urban society. The question also remains whether the newly installed representatives of the highest municipal administrations continued to enjoy general respect.

3. Řehoř Wolny (1793–1871), rajhradský benediktin a jeho přispění k obecné a církevní topografii Moravy

historical topography, Moravia, 19th century, Tomáš Řehoř Wolny, methodology, reflection of his work, Auxiliary Historical Sciences, and History
Language:
Czech
Description:
The authors use the example of the personality of Tomáš Řehoř Wolny (1793–1871) to describe the development of historical topography in Moravia in the 19th century, following the founding work of František Josef Schwoy (1742–1806). Wolny, who upon his entrance to the Benedictine monastery in Rajhrad near Brno in 1817 adopted the order name Gregor, was also an avid researcher-historian. Although his life and professional destiny has already been examined in earlier Czech and Austrian historiography, his work has unfortunately not yet been comprehensively evaluated, not only in terms of the methodological procedures Wolny used, but also in reflecting on his monumental works dealing with general and ecclesiastical topography in contemporary research. The aim of the presented paper is to at least partially fill in this gap in current knowledge.

4. Sutorův kancelářský řád ze 60. let 17. století a jeho vliv na brněnské městské písemnosti

Brno, urban syndic, Šebastián Sutor, unique office order, city registry, city accounting office, Auxiliary Historical Sciences, and History
Language:

Description:
JUC Šebastián Sutor, who worked in Brno between the years 1647 and 1666 as an urban syndic, compiled a unique office order pertaining to the principles of the administration and managing a registry. In this study, the author analyses these principles and, in the context of the research, other official municipal sources of that time and indicates that only documents of an economic and accounting character were exempted from direct supervision of the city council in the 17th century and were administered through the city accounting office (Buchhalterei). The author also states that Sutor's office order, which has not thus far been subjected to any kind of research activity, is unique testimony to, at that time, the very progressive practices of the Brno syndic. These practices were followed in Brno long before they were observed in other cities and foreshadowed 'bureaucratization' of the 18th century in the sense of the orderly management of documents.
