Overview

"Bohemian (Czech) Bibliography" by Thomas Čapek and Anna V. Čapek is a scholarly publication written in the early 20th century. This work serves as a comprehensive finding list of English writings related to Bohemia and its people, reflecting the cultural and political landscape during and after the European War. The focus of the book lies in documenting the ideals and aspirations of the Bohemian and Slovak peoples, particularly in the context of their historical struggles under Hapsburg rule. The opening of the book sets the stage by presenting the profound yet often overlooked significance of Bohemia in the broader Slavic and European context. It articulates how the Bohemian people, despite their rich literacy and cultural contributions, remain relatively unknown compared to other Slavic nations, largely due to centuries of political subjugation and their landlocked geographical position. The introductory remarks highlight key historical moments and figures that shaped Bohemia's identity, establishing both a context and a need for this bibliographic compilation. The authors emphasize the importance of recognizing and documenting Bohemian literature and history, particularly in light of the social and political upheavals that affected the region during the time of its writing.
