Women´s columns in Czech Newspapers of 1920´s: Lidové noviny and a Dispute over Women´s Column´s Philosophy under its Two Editors: Marie Fantová and M

Summary/Abstract: Specialized columns for female readers (so called women´s pages) were an integral part of many newspapers in interwar Czechoslovakia. These columns played important role in boosting careers of lots of young female journalists that had otherwise only minimal chance to get a job in a newsroom. In this paper I look into development of women´s page in Lidové noviny between years 1927–1930. More specifically I summarize major editorial changes that occured in connection with personnel politics of newspaper management. Exteremely interesting is to follow a clash between two leading editors – Marie Fantová (1893–1963) and Milena Jesenská (1896–1944) – in 1929. Thanks to a score of so far unpublished documents coming from Lidové noviny archive we have an oportunity to see conflict between two journalist not only on personal level but also on strictly professional level of two competing attitudes to writing for women.
