The catalogue contains mainly the correspondence of the Flemish Jesuit mathematician Theodore Moretus (1602–1667) and other Jesuit mathematicians active in the Bohemian lands. Among those who received their letters were the leading scholars of the time Athanasius Kircher, Giovanni Battista Riccioli and Johannes Hevelius. The correspondence documents the scholars’ attachment to the European republic of letters, and thus too that of the region, and contributes to the knowledge of post-White Mountain learned community and its intellectual world in the Bohemian lands. The catalogue is continuously enriched by new letters and metadata.
