At present we do not have available any complete and thorough discussion of the fates, distribution, and condition of written materials from the estate of the Czech aesthetician and musicologist Otakar Hostinský (1847–1910), despite his undeniable importance for Czech culture. The present study offers the results of research in this area. The administrator of Hostinský’s papers after his death was Zdeněk Nejedlý, who divided them into several parts which were then deposited in various institutions according to their expected future usage. The more precious materials remained and still remain in the ownership of Hostinský’s family. Using information acquired through study in archives and from the families of Hostinský’s descendents, it has been possible to assemble a stemma showing the institutional distribution of Hostinský’s papers. The present article should help future researchers in use of sources for study of Hostinský’s life and work.
