The Importance of Being Nationalist

Publication at Faculty of Arts |
2016

Abstract

The chapter analyses the attitudes of nineteenth-century Czech women to the most relevant ethnic and racial Others at the time - Germans and Jews. Examining the relationship between the Czech women's and national movements in the late Habsburg Empire, it asks whether the effects of nationalism on the women's emancipation efforts were as positive as presented in existing literature.
