[152] In Croatia, early in the present century, a national movement sprung up similar to that of Bohemia, but its results were smaller and less enduring. Gay, the leader of this movement, was persecuted by the Hungarians, just as the Bohemians were by the German officials. [153] In German "Moldau." [154] Kollar refers to those who, though of Slav origin, identified themselves with the Germans. [155] This is still perfectly true. In Mecklenburg and some parts of Prussia the names of many towns and villages are obviously of Slav origin, as are the family names of some of the oldest families which are derived from localities. [156] See later. [157] References to ancient Bohemian legends. [158] This was written some years ago, when the enthusiasm for the works of Tolstoy, Dostoievsky, Tourguenev, Goncharov, and others was at its height in Paris. [159] See my article on the "Bohemian Question," _Nineteenth Century_, December 1898. [160] I have dwelt with more detail on this subject in a (Bohemian) essay on "Some references to Palacký in the Works of English Writers," which appeared in the _Pamatnik Palackého_ (Palacký Memorial), published in 1898 on the occasion of the centenary of Palacký's birth. [161] Professor Kalousek, in the interesting essay on the "Leading Idea of Palacký's Historical Work," which he contributed to the Palacký Memorial, has noted that the principles according to which Palacký's _History of Bohemia_ is written are in complete accordance with the rules established by Blair in his thirty-fifth and thirty-sixth lecture, _On Historical Writing_. [162] Since the above was written, Mr. Morfill has published an admirable "Grammar of the Bohemian Language," the first ever written in English. I can strongly recommend it to readers who wish to acquire the Bohemian language. [163] In his (German) work, _Zur Böhmischen Geschichischreibung_. [164] For further particulars I must again refer my readers to my article on "The Bohemian Question", published in the _Nineteenth Century_, December 1898. [165] Mrs. Malybrok-Stieler has recently translated _Vyšehrad_ into German (Prague Rivnác, 1898). [166] The late Dr. Albrecht, in his _Neuere Poesie aus Böhmen_ and _Neueste Poesie aus Böhmen_, published many German translations from Svatopluk Čech and Vrchlický. To the latter Dr. Albrecht devoted a whole volume. BIBLIOGRAPHY
