Abstracts

Wilhelm Friedrich (1882–1914) was the first to use the term “historical geography” and his work on medieval Bohemia, published in 1912, is still methodologically very inspiring. However, we know very little about the author himself; he is usually given as a professor at a Gymnasium, who died in the First World War; the following text provides some biographical detail about this almost forgotten figure.
