Born on this day, Jan Campanus Vodňanský (1572–1622) was a prominent Czech humanist, poet, and composer of the late Renaissance period. Born in Vodňany, he became a notable figure in the intellectual and cultural life of the Bohemian Kingdom. Campanus was a professor and later rector at Charles University in Prague, where he advocated for the use of the Czech language in education and literature. He is remembered for his Latin poetry, his contributions to music, and his efforts to bridge the cultural divide during the turbulent period of the Counter-Reformation. Tragically, his life ended shortly after the Battle of White Mountain, a turning point that marked the suppression of Protestantism in Bohemia.
