KOZÁK, Petr (ed.). Červená kniha Opavského knížectví: edice registra komunikace opavských stavů z let 1614–1618 ve věci jejich sporu s Karlem z Lichtenštejna. Opava: Zemský archiv v Opavě, 2015. 279 pp. ISBN 978-80-87632-31-4.

This is an edition of the register of communications from the higher estates of the Principality of Opava from 1614–1618, documenting disputes between the estates and Karl von Liechtenstein. The book contains original documents and a study that shed light on the estates' rejection of the new sovereign, based on the privileges and historical rights of the estates. The publication is an important historical source reflecting the power and legal relations in the Duchy of Opava during the early modern period.
