Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not
used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad
quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are
images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to
keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the
original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain
imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made
available for future generations to enjoy.
Set around the events of the succession struggle of 1142 in
medieval Bohemia the main character, Witiko, the traditional
founder of the Rosenberg Family, searches for the Right, finds it
and his beloved, while never losing touch with the common folk. His
quest is amid the panoramic backdrop of national Bohemian politics
and history, with his fate paralleling that of the acknowledged
rightful duke, Wladislaw, who is also seeking the path of justice.
Witiko is considered one of the most significant German historical
novels of the Nineteenth Century.
