The emancipation of Czech female authors and the representation of the female question in their work

Abstract

The paper aims to acquaint with the main developmental tendencies and changes of the women's emancipation movement in the Czech environment and with the contemporary perception of the social and artistic position of the authors from the 4th stage of the national revival to the pre-war period (1930s). A representative sample of examples from the work of selected writers of the early 20th century will demonstrate how they approached the topic of women's issues in their own authorial work.
