This original collection offers an account of key moments and
themes in the history of the Czech lands from the time of the rise
of the Premyslide dynasty in the ninth century to the fall of
socialism in 1989. The pieces, commissioned especially for this
volume, are written by prominent scholars almost all teaching and
researching in the present-day Czech Republic. Apart from eleven
historical essays along socio-political times there are four
contributions which focus broadly on the arts, sciences and
education, emphasising political, economic and other aspects. Two
further essays consider the worlds of the university and of science
in the period 1800-1914, and 1800-1930 respectively. The
co-existence and encounters between Czechs and Germans embedded in
Czech history are emphasised throughout the book, while the
conflicts between the two nationalities in the nineteenth and
twentieth centuries are examined in a separate chapter. Lastly,
pursuing the 'ethnic' theme, there are essays on both the
little-explored question of Czech-Jewish relations and on the
sensitive Czech-Slovak question.
