Environmental Disasters and Place-Based Identity Formation: The Windstorm of 1870 and the 150-Year Czech Relationship with the Bohemian Forest
How do cultural perceptions of historic environmental disasters influence our present understanding of natural processes and conservation? How do such events contribute to the identity of a place? This analysis of the representations of the 1868 and 1870 windstorms – and the subsequent bark beetle outbreak – in the Bohemian Forest (Šumava/Böhmerwald) on the border of Bohemia, between what is today the Czech Republic and Germany, in the mass media…

České a slovenské hory jako součást národního mýtu
The study is based on a comparison of Czech travelogues to the Krkonoše (Giant Mountains) and the Tatry (Tatras) from the first half of the 19th century. Although the mountains Krkonoše and Tatry represented different, geographically relatively distant localities, their literary image was identically formed in the context of patriotic romanticism. It helped in particular that the Giant Mountains and the Tatras could be included in the “ownership”…

The Giant Mountains – as beautiful as the Alps. The origins of the aesthetic discovery of mountains in the Central European context
This article examines the aesthetic motivation behind the inception of tourism in the mountains. Aesthetic motives played a key role in the development of tourism in the Alps, which in the eighteenth century became a new, ideal type of landscape and a popular destination for artists and scientists, and later for tourists too. What form did this phenomenon take in a different geographical and cultural context? What were its dynamics and specific f…
Karkonosze jako idealny górski krajobraz na przełomie XVIII i XIX wieku
At the end of the 18th century, the new idea of the mountain landscape as an ideal and beautiful landscape emerged in Central Europe. This cultural process was conditioned by the contemporary aesthetic concepts of the Sublime and the Picturesque, related to the development of a new cultural and social practice of education of the eye (described in the book of Peter De Bolla The Education of the Eye: Painting, Landscape, and Architecture in Eighte…

Stylizace romantického subjektu. Paměti Josefa Václava Friče
W tekście autorka skoncentrowała się na analizie wspomnień Josefa Václava Friča, opublikowanych w latach 1886–1887, które uważane są za bezcenny dokument historyczny. Jednak w badaniach przenosi punkt ciężkości z perspektywy historycznej na literacką stronę dzieła. Autorka skupia się na zgłębianiu kwestii autobiografii jako uprzywilejowanego gatunku romantyzmu i reprezentacji podmiotu przez Friča
The origins of the aesthetic appreciation and artistic depiction of the industrial landscape
This article presents a historical survey of aesthetic attitudes towards industrial landscapes and industrial sites, such as factories and mines, from the late seventeenth to the nineteenth centuries. It further seeks to show that the ambivalent attitude, widespread since the 1960s to the present day, partly rejecting these landscapes and sites as aesthetically third-rate, partly appreciating them (as did many members of the Avant-garde in the ea…
Kontury máchovského mýtu
In 2010, Czech culture celebrates the 200-year anniversary of the birth of Karel Hynek Mácha, the Czech romantic poet. The early reactions to Mácha ́s works were for the most part rejections: national culture did not want to admit themes that would not serve the immediate goal of developing Czech patriotic culture. In despite of this, from the 1860 ́s, Mácha ́s legacy gradually advanced into the focus of Czech culture. Nevertheless, Mácha can be …
