In a longer, idependent essay from 1910 on the nature of Czech natural sciences, Rádl reacted to the general accusation that Czech science lacked originality and plagiarized the German model. 3. At the same time, Rádl himself headed directly into the heart of the Czech scientific community, accusing his colleague, botanist K. Domin, of plagiarism. The following furious controversy affected a part of the natural sciences community. The biographical circumstances related to one individual show one type deliberation of the time on the language issue in science.
