Each of the 12 chapters presents a first-person account, based on letters and autobiography, of a woman who contributed significantly to the cultural life of Prague from the late 18th century to the present. Excellent historical notes accompany each account as well as fascinating but fuzzy b&w photo

For many centuries Prague has exerted a particular fascination because of its beauty and therichness of its culture and history. Its famous group of German and Czech writers of mostly Jewish extraction in the earlier part of this century has deeply influenced Western culture.However, little attention has so far been paid to the roles of women in the history of thisethnically diverse area in around Prague. Based on largely autobiographical writings and letters by women and enhanced by extensive historical introduction, this book redresses a serious imbalance. The vivid and often moving portraits, which emerge from the varied material used bythe author, offer fascinating and new insights into the social and cultural history of this region.
