The History of Bohemian Literature by Francis, Count Lutzow is a comprehensive study of the literature of Bohemia, a historical region in Central Europe. The book covers the period from the earliest times to the end of the 19th century, and explores the literary works of Bohemian writers in various genres such as poetry, drama, and prose. The book begins with an overview of the history and culture of Bohemia, and then delves into the literature of the region, starting with the early medieval period and the works of the first Bohemian chroniclers. The author then moves on to the Renaissance period, where he discusses the works of the famous Bohemian astronomer and poet, Tycho Brahe, and other prominent writers of the time. The book also covers the Baroque period, which saw the emergence of the Czech language as a literary language, and the Enlightenment period, where the focus shifted to the development of prose and drama. The author then discusses the Romantic period, which saw a revival of interest in Czech folklore and mythology, and the Realist period, where writers began to explore social and political issues in their works. The final chapters of the book cover the end of the 19th century, where the author discusses the works of the most famous Bohemian writers of the time, including Karel Capek and Franz Kafka. The book concludes with a discussion of the significance of Bohemian literature in the context of European literature as a whole. Overall, The History of Bohemian Literature is a comprehensive and detailed study of the literary history of Bohemia, and will be of interest to scholars and students of European literature, as well as anyone interested in the cultural and historical heritage of Central Europe.This Is A New Release Of The Original 1899 Edition.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
