Описание

The proceedings of the international colloquium held in the National Library on June 6–7, 2007. Its aim was to present Kveder as an author with European impact, affecting the Slovenian, Czech and Croatian language and cultural milieus. The variety of texts shows the range of Kveder’s themes: she was a prose writer, as well as a playwright and journalist. The main topic of her works was the role of women in contemporary society. She stood for women’s rights and gender equality both in her texts and life. In modern terms, she could be called a feminist, an emancipator. Authors of the proceedings particularly emphasized actual and contemporary sides of Kveder’s work and tried to present them to a recent reader. The book contains scholarly papers, several papers on Kvedrova’s life and translations of her short articles published in Czech journals during her stay in Prague.
