This contribution deals with the manuscripts of the Wrocław University Library, in which works by the English reformer John Wyclif († 1384) are recorded. It shows that besides one known manuscript dating from the second half of the 15th century, Sg. IV F 7, and containing the work De universalibus, there are two copies of Wyclifˇs letter to the pope Urban VI (in the manuscripts dating from the first half of the 15th century, Sg. I F 594 and I F 707), and that in the former of the manuscripts mentioned a text dealing with the preparation for taking the Eucharist is recorded too, which otherwise survives in two Viennese manuscripts and is an item of the list of Wyclif´s works regarded as dubium. Moreover, the article mentions two Wyclifi an spuria (Sg. I F 733 and I F 570). All these copies came into being as marginalia of the reception of Wyclif´s work in Bohemia.

This article is focused on opinions that the literary historian and Custodian of the Prague Imperial-Royal University Library (now the National Library of the Czech Republic) Josef Truhlář (1840-1914) had on Manuscripts of Dvůr Králové and Zelená Hora. Initially, he had been convinced of the authenticity of the Manuscripts, but after Gebauer´s groundbreaking article questioning their authenticity published in the Athenaeum journal in February 1886, he re-evaluated his older opinions and published a series of articles in this journal denying the authenticity of the Manuscripts. These articles were focused on suspicious finding circumstances of these allegedly old monuments, parallels in their texts with literary works from the early 19th century and on other contemporary forged manuscripts.
