	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Jan Hus
		Hus was a strong partisan on the side of the Czechs, and hence of the Realists, and he was greatly influenced by the writings of Wyclif.
		Hus, who had become once more rector of the university, was called to account by the archbishop for his Wycliffite tendencies and was reported to Rome with the result that Alexander V, in a Bull of 20 December 1409, directed the archbishop to forbid any preaching except in cathedral, collegiate, parish, and cloister
		Hus meanwhile openly defended Wyclif, and this position he maintained especially against John Stokes, a licentiate of Cambridge, who had come to Prague and declared that in England Wyclif was regarded as a heretic.

	Jan Hus
		It was on this date, July 6, 1415, that the leader of a much-needed reform movement within the Roman Catholic Church, Jan Hus, was burned at the stake for heresy at Constance.
		Hus was austere and serious himself, so Wyclif's ideas about reforming the corruption of the Church, condemning the vices of the monks and clergy, and the "unscriptural" doctrines surrounding the supremacy of the papacy, indulgences, purgatory and so on, appealed to him.
		As for Jan Hus, his "safe conduct" was a ruse: once at Constance, he was arrested, tried, and condemned.

	Hus, Luther, and Gutenberg
		The Council of Constance invited Hus to express his views; despite his fears (the council's stated aim was to root out heresy), he accepted the Holy Roman Emperor's guarantee of safe-conduct to and from the Council.
		Hus had made a sufficient number of doctrinal points in his lifetime, and attracted enough followers, to provide a sound basis for the movement.
		A living Hus would have been a valuable voice for the movement; but the dead Hus embodied a spirit of pride and resistance which inspired the Hussites and steeled them for the coming doctrinal and military assault upon their beliefs.

	Jan Hus
		This appoinment had a deep influence on the already vigorous religious life of Hus himself; and one of the effects of the earnest and independent study of Scripture into which it led him was a profound conviction of the great value not only of the philosophical, but also of the theological writings of Wycliffe.
		It was a dangerous triumph for Hus; for his popularity at court and in the general community had been secured only at the price of clerical antipathy everywhere and of much German ill-will.
		Negotiations were carried on for some months, but in vain; in March 1411 the ban was anew pronounced upon Hus as a disobedient son of the church, while the magistrates and councillors of Prague who had favored him were threatened with a similar penalty in case of their giving him a contumacious support.
