FRANTIŠEK J. VAVÁK AND SONG ABOUT THE KING OF BAVARIA

• Languages of publication: CS

Abstracts

EN

The War of the Austrian Succession (1740–1748) met with an extraordinary response in the period chronicle entries and in song lyrics. With a few exceptions these songs express resistance to the enemies of Maria Theresa, save for the song Prague has a King of Bavaria, promising peasants that their ‘compulsory labour would come to an end’. The author tries to outline the circumstances of the birth of the song, its dating, and other circumstances.
