TITLE: Aftermath of the Last General Assembly of 'Živena.' DESCRIPTION: The author of the article, Elena (Maróthy-) Šoltésová (1855-1939) was a Slovak writer, editor and publicist and a leading figure of Slovak women’s activism of the 2nd half of the 19th and beginning of the 20th century. Between 1894 and 1927 she was the chairwoman of the Slovak women’s association Živena. Lead by Maróthy-Šoltésová, Živena founded several schools for girls, organised lectures for girls in housekeeping and founded the Lipa organisation to help Slovak female embroiders to sell their work. She was also the editor of the women’s journal Živena, founded in 1910. From the perspective of Slovak nationalism, the author deals with the current practice of educating Slovak girls. In text, written at the beginning of the 1880s, criticizes the way Slovak girls are educated in the existing educational institutions, the fact they study courses in languages they don’t really understand – Hungarian and German. According to the author, the education in these institutions provokes contempt for all that is Slovak. She criticizes the fact that women’s education is measured by the knowledge of foreign languages and emphasizes the importance of their education in the Slovak language. The author notes that the current circumstances do not allow the establishment of a girls’ school in the national language and she urges women to grow Slovak language there where they can - “in the quiet shelter of the Slovak home.” In the text, education is described as a means of helping the suffering and oppressed nation. The author refuses the “overly scientific” education which “smells by emancipation” and distracts women from their natural vocation. Education should be adequate to the female vocation; the educated woman is to support her husband and be the first teacher of her children. See also, Ambróz Pietor, “Slovenky pozor!

TITLE: Details: Answer of Czech Women Hungarian Women. DESCRIPTION: Dennica was the first Slovak women’s journal, founded in 1898. The journal was founded and edited by Terésia Vansová (1857-1942), Slovak writer and a leading women’s activist. The short note informs about Božena Viková-Kunětická’s boycott of the seventh congress of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (IWSA) in Budapest in 1913. Božena Viková-Kunětická (1862-1934) was a Czech speaking writer elected to the Bohemian Provincial (crown land) Diet in 1912. She was the first woman elected to the (regional) parliament in the Habsburg Monarchy. In 1913, she refused to attend the IWSA congress in Budapest after she hadn’t been allowed to give her speech in Czech or Slovak language – which were not the official languages of the Congress – and after her proposition to include the protest against the situation of the Slovak nation in Hungary into the official program of the congress hadn’t been taken into account by the organizers. See also, Božena Viková-Kunětická, “Discours de Mme le deputé Božena Viková-Kunětická sur les femmes et les petites natitions, prononcé à la réunion le 9 juin 1913 à Prague [Speech by Mme. Božena Viková-Kunětická on Women and Small Nations, delivered at the meeting on 9 June 1913 in Prague]” (Speech, Praha [Prague], 1913), Fond Viková-Kunětická Božena, 59/55, folder výstřižky – články otištěné v různých časopisech a novinách z let 1913-1931, Památník národního písemnictví, Literární archiv. Cooperation between Slovak and Czech (Bohemian and Moravian) women, and the topos of Slovak-Czech brotherhood and sisterhood transcended the separation of these nationalities speaking Slavic languages within the Habsburg Monarchy. The Czech lands belonged to Austria (Cisleithania) while the Slovakian lands belonged to Hungary. Austria and Hungary formed the two constitutive parts of the Habsburg Monarchy, each of which was in charge of its own domestic politics.

TITLE: The Second Congress of Czechoslovak Women. DESCRIPTION: This report discusses the second congress of Czechoslovak women held in Prague (Praha, Prag) in 1908. The article was published in Ženski svet. List dobrotvornih zadruga Srpkinja (Women’s World: Journal of the Charitable Cooperatives of Serbian Women). The journal was published between 1886 and 1914 in Novi Sad (Újvidék), the Vojvodina, by the Charitable Cooperative of Serbian Women from Novi Sad (Dobrotvorna zadruga Srpkinja Novosatkinja). The Vojvodina belonged to the Kingdom of Croatia-Slavonia which enjoyed a considerable degree of autonomy within the Lands of the Crown of Saint Stephen, or Hungary, in the dual Monarchy (from 1867) of Austria-Hungary. Serbian was one of the dominant languages spoken in the Vojvodina. The editor of the journal was Arkadije Varađanin, a man who was an active proponent of women’s rights and who was a teacher and director of the Serbian High School for Girls established in Novi Sad in 1874. The article claims that the second congress of Czechoslovak women was organized on the occasion of the celebration of the 60th anniversary of Francis Joseph’s reign, and reports that several pan-Slavic congresses have been organized on the occasion with the aim to strengthen the cooperation in the cultural and economic sphere. Delfa Ivanić (1881-1972) from Belgrade and Marija Jurić Zagorka (1873-1957) from Zagreb participated in the congress and were elected honorary vice-presidents of the congress. The congress discussed questions such as women’s position in society, family, state and culture. The report praises the Slavic cooperation and in closing discusses the possibilities of organizing the congress of Serbian women “on this side” (meaning, in Austria-Hungary rather than Serbia), which, according to some, should have occurred before the Chzechoslovak women’s congress. For the speech held by Delfa Ivanić on the occasion, see Delfa Ivanić, “Govor g-đe Delfe Ivanićke na kongresu slovenskih žena, koji je održan u Pragu o.g. (1) [The speech of Mrs Delfa Ivanić at the congress of Slavic women held in Prague this year (1)],” Ženski svet, January 10, 1908; and Delfa Ivanić, “Govor g-đe Delfe Ivanićke na kongresu slovenskih žena, koji je održan u Pragu o.g. (2) [The Speech of Mrs Delfa Ivanić at the Congress of Slavic Women held in Prague This Year (2)],” Ženski svet, January 11, 1908.

TITLE: One Minute. DESCRIPTION: Marija Jurić Zagorka (1873-1956) was Croatian feminist, the first female political journalist, editor of women’s magazines, and the most popular Croatian writer. In this short newspaper article, the author, identified as (female) patriot, describes her train travel from the region of Syrmia to Zagreb. She criticizes the use of Hungarian and German languages on railways, since passengers in Syrmia and Slavonia, mostly peasants, do not understand the announcements and often miss their destination where the train stops only for a minute (“egypercz” in Hungarian). Also referring to the introduction of Hungarian language in gymnasia in Croatia, the author ends the article with the critique of pro-Croatian politicians who fight among themselves for leadership, while the pro-Hungarian party accommodates “the descendants of Arpad.” This article, one of the firsts that Marija Jurić Zagorka published in the daily Obzor in 1896, marks the beginning of her career as the first female political journalist in Croatia. It attracted the attention of the influential Croatian bishop Josip Juraj Strossmayer, who then helped Jurić to get the position of journalist in charge of Hungarian politics in Obzor, where she would work until the end of the First World War. It demonstrates well her life-long interest in national issues, mainstream politics (a rarity among Croatian women active in the public space), and her concern for working classes. The article also presents the every day experience of the railways as an imperial institution.
