Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. The object of this volume is to make Bohemia and her people better known to the English-speaking world. The average Englishman s and American s knowledge of Bohemia is very vague. It is only within recent years that Anglo-American writers have begun to take a deeper interest in her people. Among the more prominent students of Bohemian contemporary life should be mentioned: Will S. Monroe, Emily G. Balch, and Herbert Adolphus Miller, in the United States; and A. R. Colquhoun, Richard J. Kelly, F. P. Marchant, James Baker, Wickham H. Steed, Charles Edmund Maurice, W. R. Morfill, and R. W. Seton-Watson in England. Count Lutzow has written in English a number of works on Bohemian matters. While it is yet too early to foresee the precise results of the Great War, one may judge of coming events by the shadows they cast before them. A close observer of the Austrian shadows is justified in thinking that the Bohemian people, so long suppressed, stand on the threshold of a new destiny. This destiny points to the restoration of their ancient freedom. If the Allies win-and every loyal[8] son of the Land of Hus fervently wishes that their arms might prevail, notwithstanding the fact that Bohemian soldiers are constrained to fight for the cause of the two Kaisers-Bohemia is certain to re-enter the family of self-governing European nations. The proclamation which the Russian Generalissimo addressed to the Poles may be said to apply with equal force to the Bohemians: The hour has sounded when the sacred dream of your fathers may be realized. Bohemia will be born again, free in her religion, her language, and autonomous. The dawn of a new life begins for you. In this glorious dawn is seen the sign of the cross, the symbol of suffering and the resurrection of a people.

Language: English . Brand New Book ***** Print on Demand *****. With what form of government would Bohemia make her re-entry into the European family of nations-as a free state, as a dependency of Russia, as a ward of the Allies, or incorporated in a federation of the states remaining to the Hapsburg Empire? It was a favorite theory of Palacky that the Austrian nations would, for their own protection, have to create an Austria, if she were ever destroyed. But what Palacky has said may no longer be true, because the events of 1914 have created issues and opened up possibilities undreamt of in his times. Palacky, let it be understood, had in mind a Confederated Austria that should form a bulwark for small races against German expansion from the north and the west. It has been intimated that the Allies might agree to create Bohemia and Hungary as independent buffer states to curb German aggression, just as Belgium and Holland are buffer states between Germany and France. If this war has shown anything, it has demonstrated the usefulness of a small state like that of the Belgians.
