Description
The book is the third volume of the extensive encyclopedia Czech Theatre Encyclopedia, being developed at the Cabinet for the Study of Czech Theatre. The nineteenth century, to which this volume is dedicated, is crucial for modern Czech theatre, and yet such a broadly conceived publication of an encyclopedic nature has been lacking until now. The structure of the book is the same as in previous volumes, but thematically it fully focuses on Czech-language theatre. It includes more than five hundred entries covering playwrights, actors, directors, stage designers, theatre directors, and others. Each entry provides information about the life, activities, and works of the respective personality based on thorough research and is equipped with a detailed bibliography. The text is accompanied by numerous photographs and reproductions.
