The publication focuses on the history of Czech and Czechoslovak polonistics in its university form. It traces the development of the field from the birth of Czech interest in Polish language and literature during the national revival to the closure of Czech universities during the Protectorate of Bohemia and Moravia, in a broader contemporary and Czech-Polish context. It also provides an overview of profiled personalities in the field of Polish studies, Polish philology and translation from Polish literature. The work has an interdisciplinary, historical-philological character; it combines research on the history of the field with diachronic and synchronic linguistic and literary research.
The publication can be purchased in commercial bookshops.
