Later and different: The development of Czech national institutions in Moravia, 1848-1905

The Czech national movement in Moravia has been ignored by historians as a topic for inquiry. Although Bohemia and Moravia have shared a similar historical trajectory and close ties, there remains a lack of English-language scholarship on the dissemination of the Czech national identity in Moravia. While the establishment of cultural and political institutions was delayed, the case of Moravia is not a simple carbon copying and implementing of Bohemian-style institutions without consideration of the special regional environment. This work will attempt to provide the reader with an overview of the Czech national movement in Moravia between 1848 and 1905 by analyzing institutional and political development.
