Description The establishment of Czechoslovakia marked an important caesura in the development of Czech and Slovak science. During the interwar period, Czechoslovakia, and particularly Prague, became one of the most important centres of Slavic studies in Europe and the world, thus earning the title of “Slavic Athens.” This period saw the development of Charles University in Prague, and in 1919 new universities were founded in Brno and Bratislava. Slavic studies were one of the key humanities disciplines at these universities from 1919 to 1939. This was significantly influenced by the activities of the Prague Linguistic Circle. An important place in the achievements of Czechoslovak Slavic studies was also held by Polish studies.
