Title: 21th May, 1932. The Association’s Welcome Address to the Members From Iassy and To Those Who Arrived [at the Meeting]. Various Thanks. A Retrospective View on the Organization’s Activity for the last 15 years. Description: Manuscript of a speech delivered by Elena Meissner, important Romanian feminist, leader of the Association for the Civil and Political Emancipation of Romanian Women, at a meeting of the organization organized in Iassy on 21th of May, 1932. The meeting was dedicated to the celebration of the 15 years of feminist activity deployed by the Association for the Civil and Political Emancipation of Romanian Women. The speech contains a rather detailed and personal account of Elena Meissner’s view on the way in which the organization she led evolved over time. It provides precious information on the organizational evolution of the Association but also of the National Council of Romanian and on Elena Meissner’s approach to feminist ideas.

TITLE: November 28, 1905. DESCRIPTION: Ženský list [Women's Paper] was a women's journal linked to Českoslovanská sociálně demokratická strana dělnická [the Czechoslavonic Social Democratic Workers’ Party]. Since 1901 it was edited by Karla Máchová (1853-1920) – the main representative of the Czech-speaking social democratic women's movement in Bohemia. The text describes the events of November 28, 1905 in Prague – the general strike and massive demonstrations for universal suffrage to the lower house of the Austrian (Cisleithanian) parliament (Reichsrat). The demonstrations were part of the actions organized in many cities of the monarchy by social democrats. The text is written from the working-class perspective. It describes November 28 as the “triumphant day of the disinherited proletariat asking its civil rights.” The author, most likely the editor of the journal, Karla Máchová, stresses that the proletariat is made up of both men and women and points to the fact, that large number of women were part of the procession, manifesting for universal suffrage in terms of suffrage for both men and women. She stresses that the right to vote will be universal only when it includes both men and women.

TITLE: 28 October, Prague. DESCRIPTION: The article was published in women’s journal Živena in the autumn 1918 after the independent state of Czechoslovakia had been established in October 1918. It describes the day of the declaration of the new republic, 28 October 1918, and the following days in the capital of Prague, which is located in Bohemia. Prague is depicted as a centre of the Czecho-Slovak idea, culture and government, as the Mother Prague. Both Czech and Slovak patriotic anthems are sung and Czechoslovak flags are flying. While during these days numerous symbols of the Habsburg Monarch were eliminated, the article emphasises the calm, non-violent way of celebrations and mentions the tearful joy of the nation freed after 300 years of oppression. In pointing to this time span, the author refers to the story of the defeat in the battle of Bílá hora (White Mountain) near Prague in November 1620 which resulted in the strengthening of the ruling power of Habsburgs over the Czech lands. In the article, this event of Czech history is considered important also for Slovaks even though the Slovak lands had constituted the part of Duchy of Hungary, later the Kingdom of Hungary since the 1000s.
