During this year, we met three young science enthusiasts in the Biographical Archive of the CLB, who were working on prosopographical research of authors and editors of the Czech regional press of the 19th and first half of the 20th century.
Adriana, Michaela and Martin researched 4 literary periodicals, 50 volumes, 1609 issues and 42887 pages. And what were they interested in? For example, the age at which authors started publishing, or the gender composition of specific editorial boards.
They presented the results of their joint work at a recent conference, a video recording of which is now available on the Czech Academy of Sciences’ YouTube channel.
All final presentations and evaluations of our interns can also be found on the CLB website.
