Letters of Božena Němcová´s Family
Kokešová, Helena
The author concentrated on letters among J. Němec and the children Karel, Jaroslav and Dora and on letters among the brothers and sisters themselves that still remained unnoticed and hidden. The letters contain valuable information not only about their personal life but also about their everyday life, about the cultural and political development of the Czech society during the second half of the 19th century. They have also other dimension given by the fact that J. Němec worked in Russia. It is possible to find interesting facts in his letters that broaden our knowledge about the history of travelling, about the way of life of Russian and Tartar people, about the life of Czechs in Russia and the information about the history of medicine. Because both sons were distinguished pomologists, information about the development of this field is noticed, too. The family letters contain also the important information about so called B. Němcová's second life.
