On the one hand it deals with the Czech studies subjects in the researcher’s works on the other hand it exemplifies Penev’s personal relations with representatives of Czech science (A. Novák, J. Páta, F. R. Tichý, F. Wollman) and the response to his personality and work in Bohemia; Penev’s article Dnešní literatura bulharská [Today’s Bulgarian Literature], published in Czech in the book Slovanský přehled 1914–1924.
