The course combines lectures and seminar work (1/1). It concentrates on general theoretical problems of studying women in modern history, starting from 1848. The general questions will be explored in authentic historical conditions of the multicultural Habsburg monarchy (the 2nd half of the 19th century, turn of the centuries), then of the independent Czechoslovak Republic (1918–1938), of its Nazi occupation during WW II, and lastly of the socialist regime that controlled Czech society between 1948–1989. The stories of Czech women will be used as case studies. These would be complemented by the different historical knowledge and research of the international students participating in the course. A related focus of the course will be the historical and philosophical conditions of womenʼs engagement in the humanities and science. A walking tour around Prague tracing some of Czech women in science is a part of the course.
