Augustinus Olomucensis (March 1467, Olomouc – November 3, 1513, Olomouc) was a Moravian humanist and theologian. His birth name was Augustin Käsenbrot (or ''Käsenbrod''), but he was also known as Augustinus Moravus or Augustinus Bemus, or, in Czech, as Augustin Moravský or Augustin Olomoucký (or ''Olomúcký''). Augustinus is generally considered the foremost Moravian humanist of his time.〔〔Kouřil, Miloš: "Aus der Bibliothek des Humanisten Johann Roth", in ''Humanistica Lovaniensia'', Vol. XLIII, Leuven University Press 1994, p. 99–105; on Augustinus Olomucensis p.103f.〕 == Life == After the early death of his father, Augustinus grew up in the household of his uncle Andreas Ctiborius, who was canon at Olomouc.〔Czapla, p. 61. Ctiborius is ''not'' identical to Andreas Stiborius.〕 Sponsored by Ctiborius and Johann Roth (1426–1506), Bishop of Wrocław, Augustinus studied at the Jagiellonian University at Kraków from 1484 to 1488,〔 where he was graduated as a magister of philosophy〔 and then at Padova. On April 16, 1494 he obtained the degree of a doctor in canon law in Ferrara.〔Czapla, p. 62.〕 In 1496 he became secretary at the chancellery of Vladislaus II in Buda.〔 Throughout the years he would advance from secretary apparently to the post of vice-chancellor.〔Czapla, p. 63.〕 Augustinus was a stout opponent of the Moravian Church (Waldensians), and in his position at the chancellery he influenced the king to massive repressions against these, in the spirit of Heinrich Institoris.〔 In 1497 Agustinus became canon at Brno,〔 and the following year he was chosen as provost at Olomouc, but because another candidate for that office recurred to Rome, Augustinus could take office only in 1506.〔 Augustinus maintained intensive contacts with other humanists of his time, and was also a member of Conrad Celtis' Sodalitas Litterarum Danubiana in Vienna.〔 A passionate collector of coins, Augustinus presented the ''Sodalitas Litterarum Danubiana'' in 1508 a golden cup decorated with ancient coins.〔〔Aschbach, Joseph: ''Geschichte der Wiener Universität'', Vol. 2: ''(Die Wiener Universität und ihre Humanisten im Zeitalter Kaiser Maximilians I. )'', Vienna 1877, p. 438f.

URL last accessed 2012-11-06.〕 Augustin offered generous support to fellow humanists, such as to Valentin Eck,〔Glomski, Jacqueline: ''Patronage and Humanist Literature in the Age of the Jagiellons'', University of Toronto Press 2007, ISBN 978-0-8020-9300-4, p. 101–103.〕 whom he housed for some time, or to Johannes Cuspinian, whom he let peruse his large library, or to Celtis and Joachim Vadian, whom he sent copies of manuscripts they otherwise had no access to.〔 Before 1511, Augustinus became canon in Prague and in Wrocław. In 1511 he resigned from his office at the chancellery at Buda and moved permananetly to Olomouc, where he died two years later.〔Czapla, pp. 63/64.〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Augustinus Olomucensis」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
