Bohemia after the Battle of White Mountain, Part 1
The work of the French historian had a major impact on Czech historical awareness. It vuilds on Palacký’s synthesis of history, which ended in 1526, and describes historical events up to the end of the 19th century. It was made available to the Czech reader in a translation by Jindřich Vančura, who changed the original text with numerous additions and omissions to serve as a missing, expert argument for Masaryk’s philosophical construction of Czech history. According to Masaryk, the values created by Hussite movement and the Brethern Reformation played a key role in the beginnings of the national awakening after the “Dark Ages”.
