Adolf Černý’s Polish impressions
Chodějovský, Jan
Adolf Černý, editor of the revue Slovanský přehled, had intensive contacts with Polish scholars for his whole life. He made number of journeys to Poland, for the first time in 1889. At that time Černý arrived to the country divided among three empires. He found a nation there fighting for its cultural, language and historical rights analogously to Czechs. But when he returned to Poland in early 1920s he came into diametrically different situation, after diplomatic and war conflict between newborn Czechoslovakia and Poland. The last longer visit of Poland he made with the group of Czechoslovak journalists in 1926. In Černý´s diaries, correspondence, or in newspaper articles about his journeys to Poland it is possible to discover not only the formation of his scholarly interests and acquisition of a reputation of notable Polonist (specialist for Poland), but also political transformation of Central Europe and evolvement of Czech-Polish relations.
Adolf Černý and his Explorational Trips in Lusatia
Kaleta, Petr
Travelling had an important place in the life of Adolf Černý. He became familiar with many parts of pre-war Europe as well as the new countries which came into being following the First World War, however his most thorough trips were through Slavic Lusatia. His research trips to Lusatia in the 1880s and 1890s were one of the final phases of his collection of ethnographic material in this part of the Slavic world. His brilliant knowledge of the Sorbian language helped him to penetrate into the world of the Sorbian rural inhabitans, which at that time was rather archaic. The base for his trips was always Budyšin (Bautzen), where the central Sorbian institutions were located, and the home of Michal Hórnik, the leader of the Sorbs at the time.
