Matyska Mičánková, Tereza ; Janeček, Petr (advisor) ; Štěpánová, Irena (referee)
This paper maps the process of discarding the traditional folk costume (the so- called "kroj"in Czech) in Bohemia. Reasons for discarding the folk costume were sorted out and classified. The process was analysed from several angles including the factors that had crucial influence in discarding the costumes in particular regions, its chronology, evaluation and following creation of a map showing all the acquired data. The work focuses on central Bohemia region. This region was very swift in discarding its folk costumes; the process took place at the turn of 18th and 19th century. In this work we compare the most important factors of folk costume discard in central Bohemia and regions where the costume was popular for longer periods, like Chodsko, Blata or Doudlebsko.
