| Description | The article analyses the grant of arms of King Sigismund for the Moravian market-town Mohelno from 1417, which was issued at the request of the local suzerain, the familiaris of Sigismund, the knight Peter Gewser of Mohelno. The first part of the article (by Andreas Zajic) analysis the grant of arms charter, which is preserved only as a late copy, in the context of the oldest grants of arms for cities and market-towns. The second part of the article (Petr Elbel) contains a social and prosopographic analyse focused on the personality of Peter Gewser and his career at the court of King Sigismund. |
