Description:

Selský archiv is one of the most important journals focused on the ethnography of Moravia and Silesia. Sixteen volumes were published between the years 1902-1923. During that time, approximately two hundred regional authors published approximately eight hundred texts of varied ethnographical value. The magazine was most famous when Vincenc Prasek was editor-in-chief of the first eight volumes.Prasek’s commentaries strongly influenced the general content of the texts published between 1902 and 1909. The region most commonly covered by the authors was Haná, due to the fact that most regular contributors hailed from this region. Between 1909 and 1923 the content is dominated by articles from the Horácko region written by Josef František Svoboda and František Trnka. These two authors wanted to turn this magazine focused on popular science and history into a professional journal addressing the key issues in ethnography and archival science. The biggest attention was paid to real-life sources, as one can see in articles about minor countryside buildings supported by approximately one hundred drawings and/or photos.When put together, these texts basically cover all aspects of life in the Moravian and Silesian countryside. In addition, popular topics included folk literature, crafts, jobs and folk nomenclature. Selected bibliography, including abstracts and key words, is available at the website of the Czech Ethnographical Society.
