Hus Writes De Ecclesia
1413
The Bohemian reformer, already under papal interdict, wrote his most incendiary treatise arguing that the true Church was the body of the elect, not the institutional hierarchy. Predestination and reform converged. The text would land him at Constance in the fire. It would also be republished during the Reformation as a Protestant relic.
