TITLE: Annual Report of Splošno žensko društvo, 1913. DESCRIPTION: The document is the annual report of Splošnoslovenskoženskodruštvo (General Slovene Women’s Society), the most important association of Slovene-speaking women in the Austrian half of the Habsburg Empire, for the year 1913. The report informs about the preparations of the exhibition “Jugoslavenskažena” (The Yugoslav woman), in cooperation with women’s organizations from Zagreb-Ženskaudrugazapromicanjenarodnepučkeumjetnosti i obrta (Women’s Association for Promoting National Popular Art and Crafts) and Udrugaučiteljica (Female Teachers’ Association). Due to the economic crisis related to the Balkan wars, the exhibition was postponed to 1914. French, English, German and Slavic delegates travelling to the Seventh Congress of the International Women’s Suffrage Alliance (IWSA) in Budapest, held the meeting in Prague from 8th to the 12th of June 1913. The Czech women convoked the meeting of Slavic women in Prague, protesting the decisions of Vienna and Budapest committees not to accept language equality at the congress. Croatian and Slovene women expressed solidarity with the Czechs, and sent the telegram to the Výbor pro volebníprávožen (Committee for women’s suffrage). The report includes the text of the telegram, in which the authors expressed a wish for establishing an Austrian Slavic women’s federation (a federation of Slavic-speaking women’s organizations within the Austrian half of the Habsburg Empire). The Slovene women expressed their regrets for being geographically distant from active Czech women, and for being obliged to be members of Vienna’s Bund Österreichischer Frauenvereine (Federation of Austrian Women’s Associations). The report documents the shifting alliances among women of different nationalities within the Empire, in this case under the influence of the Yugoslav and the Austro-Slavic political models, respectively. It also documents tensions between women activists from different nationalities in relation to the 1913 IWSA Congress in Budapest.

TITLE: A Lecture on Women's Emancipation in Russia in the Beginning of 1902. DESCRIPTION: The text by an anonymous author, a Slovene woman living in Russia, provides information about the progress of women’s emancipation in Russia in the beginning of 1902. After starting with the reference about the debate over the use of the titles Miss and Mrs. in Parisian circles, the author reports that in Russia women are more interested in practical problems, such as the fight against prostitution. They establish programs for young female workers consisting in lectures, courses, and organized entertainment under the supervision of patronesses. In Petrograd, courses and schools have been established for training of young women in watchmaking, handicrafts, pharmacy, and agriculture. The document shows the circulation of information about organized women’s movements and the efforts for women’s emancipation beyond the Empire. The personal letters and reports from women from the same ethnic group living in foreign countries often served as the first sources of information for women activists eager to gain knowledge about the women’s movements across the world. Women’s organizations also relied on the exchange of journals and direct correspondence with fellow activists. The document is kept incomes from the archives of Splošnoslovenskoženskodruštvo(General Slovene Women’s Society), the most important association of Slovene-speaking women in the Austrian part of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. As a major independent Slavic country, the Russian Empire was a culturally and politically important reference point for national elites of Slavic peoples within the Habsburg Empire. Keywords: Women Interacting with Women, Social Movements, and Other Actors Beyond Empire; Women and Education; Gendered Education; Education as a Source of Women’s Emancipation; Habsburg Empire; Russian Empire

Title: Letter to Elsa Grailich, 2 July 1908. Description: The writer of the letter is Auguste Fickert (1855–1910). She was a school teacher in Vienna and an active member of the Allgemeiner Österreichischer Frauenverein [General Austrian Women's Association], one of the rather radical organisations of the Austrian bourgeois women's movements in terms of their political demands. The Allgemeiner Österreichischer Frauenverein [General Austrian Women's Association] committed to women's labor and employment and campaigned for improvements of proletarian women's lives. Fickert cooperated with proletarian organizations in campaigns and was active in the women's suffrage movement. Her first public political act was to organize a petition against the disfranchisement of women voters in government elections in Lower Austria. In 1899, she co-founded the journal of the General Austrian Women's Association, Dokumente der Frauen [Documents of Women], which is available full-text online through the Österreichische Nationalbibliothek’s AustriaN Newspapers Online (ANNO) [See: http://anno.onb.ac.at/]. The letter was addressed to Elsa Grailich (1880–1969). Grailich was a journalist and poet in Pressburg (Pozsony, Bratislava, in the Hungarian Kingdom, today Slovakia). She was active in the social-democratic movement and was engaged for better education and women's rights. In the Handschriftensammlung [Manuscript Department] of the Wienbibliothek im Rathaus [Vienna City Library], there are only the letters from Fickert to Grailich available. The answer letters from Grailich to Fickert are not part of the collection. In the letter from 2 July 1908, Fickert raises the attention of Grailich to an upcoming congress in London. In April 1909, the congress of the International Woman Suffrage Alliance (IWSA) took place in London. Fickert mentions that she would like to go, but she indicates that her financial situation would not allow to travel to the congress. Fickert asks Grailich, whether she would contribute to a questionnaire on education. This letter is one of several from Fickert to Grailich included in this digital archive.

TITLE: The Daily Svornost [Concord] to Božena Viková-Kunětická, Chicago, June 8, 1912. DESCRIPTION: The Daily Svornost [The Daily Concord] was the first Czech journal in Chicago, founded in 1875. Božena Viková-Kunětická (1862-1934) was a Czech speaking writer and nationalist politician. In 1912, she was elected a deputy to the Bohemian Provincial Diet, the first elected woman deputy in the Habsburg Monarchy. The curial electoral system to the Diet, in use since 1861, was based on tax and property qualifications and thus excluded a major part of the citizens on the basis of class. At the same time the regulations pertaining to the Bohemian Diet used gender neutral terms – some women thus were not deprived from the right to vote to the Diet, some were not explicitly excluded from the passive electoral right. The publisher of the Daily Svornost congratulates the Czech writer Božena Viková-Kunětická to her victory in the election and asks her to send a message to the “Czech America.” KEYWORDS: Women Interacting with Women, Social Movements, and Other Actors Beyond Empire; Political and Human Rights; Suffrage; Habsburg Empire; Cisleithania; Bohemia

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.

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.
