Obraz ženy v kramářské produkci

This study explores one historical source which in many ways ideally meets the demands of contemporary scholars. It bears authentic testimony to the life of women in the past as well as provides period views of women and their position in society. It is the broadside prints in which the subject of woman and her hard lot is frequently and authentically described. Some of the favourite motifs in broadside poetry, as far as representation of female subject in broadside secular production is concerned, are descriptions of various forms of love and courting, married life and fates of widows.
