Английская Википедия:Arnošt Klíma
Arnošt Klíma, PhDr., DrSc. (1 March 1916, Klimkovice – 4 January 2000, Prague), was a historian, most noted for his work on the economic and social history of the Czech-speaking region in the seventeenth to nineteenth centuries. He was a member correspondent of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences and professor of the Philosophical Faculty of the Charles University in Prague. He also translated extensively from German.[1] He is particularly noted in Anglophone scholarship for his contribution to the Brenner Debate on the origins of capitalism.[2]
Biography
From 1947 to 1981 Klíma lectured on modern history at the Faculty of Education at the Charles University in Prague. In 1947 he was historical advisor on the film Revoluční rok (1848) by Václav Krška.[3] In 1948 he became an associate professor and in 1951 a professor at Charles University. At the beginning of the 1960s, he was a visiting professor at the University of Leipzig. During the period of liberalization, he spent 1968–69 as a visiting scholar in the USA (Madison). At the beginning of the nineties, Arnošt Klima devoted himself to preparing the writing of his memoirs.[4] However, during the period of Normalisation, Klíma 'became a persona non grata for political reasons' in Czechoslovakia. He was during this time elected to the steering committee of the World Congress of Economic Historians, and was noted for 'his endeavours to establish contacts with the historians of the Soviet bloc', but was prevented by the Czechoslovakian government from participating in the committee or congresses. The chapter of Klíma's otherwise unpublished memoirs on this matter has been published.[5]
