AB This study originated as an attempt to finish an article by deceased Carmelite historian P. Matthaus Hosler, OCarm. (* 8. 10. 1937 Altendorf, Stara Ves, Rymarov distr. - † 23. 4. 2009 Bamberg), provincial of the Upper German province in 1985-1991. In his typescript he managed to outline the history of Carmelite monastery of the Snow Virgin Mary to its decline in the 2nd half of the 16th century, recovery aspiration at the beginning of the 17th century and subsequently acquiring of St. Gaul church and a delayed building of a new convent there. The main asset is excerption of the sources in monastery archives in the Upper German province and General archive of the order in Rome. P. Hosler supplied his work with voluminous systematic lists of names of local friars with various commissions. List of dignitaries is supplied with a selective list of Baroque prints, whose authors were members of Prague order community, and a list of donators of mass foundations in the church of St. Gaul. P. Gorazd Cetkovsky, OCarm., redactor of that study appended to it passages concerning the Carmelite order origins, a study of the order and life of the Prague Carmel in the early and recent times. Finally two other authors widened the study with excerptions from Czech literature and further archive documents of Prague provenience; they added missing art historical descriptions of both convents and other historic data (J. Hajek for the convent at the Snow Virgin Mary and H. Cizinska for the convent at St. Gaul).
