- Abstract
- The article examines the work of a number of scholars born in the Czech lands (historians, philosophers, sociologists, ethnographers, literary critics) to discuss the contributions made by Central-Europeans intellectuals to the shaping of theories of nationalism and ethnicity. Some of them, living as exiled emigres, took active part in the development of the humanities in English-speaking countries, while others were involved in the academic life of Central Europe. The author seeks to find answers to the question of why topics related to ethnic, national, linguistic, and cultural identity were so important for the non-Czech Bohemians as to compel them to single those out of the everyday as subjects for scrupulous analysis.
