Description
The period from 1890 to 1914 is often referred to as the 'Belle Époque.' During this 'beautiful era,' there was significant technical and economic development. In this book, you will learn about life in cities and villages at that time. You will discover which technical inventions emerged, how our ancestors spent their leisure time, what they ate, where they shopped, how marriages were formed, and which superstitions were a common part of their lives. For example, you will read about the death boards in Šumava, the St. John's fires on Radhošť, the new nobility, sports, the development of tourism, housing problems in Prague, major exhibitions, and also about civil servants. You will find out how long military service lasted and whether men could avoid it. Come take a glimpse into the world of our great-grandmothers and great-grandfathers, which is now remembered with nostalgia. Visit the remarkable time that ended with the First World War, after which the world changed fundamentally.
