Student reading associations during post-revolutionary neoabsolutismVašík, Miroslav (Avtor) studentsstudent associationsPragueneoabsolutismrevolution1848Habsburg monarchyreading associationnational conflictHow did student associations survive under Austria’s harsh post-1848 regime? This article reveals how two student groups in Prague – one Czech, one German – adapted to heavy state control while preserving their educational and cultural goals. Despite censorship, surveillance, and shrinking membership, these associations navigated legal loopholes and shifting policies to maintain a fragile civic presence. Their story challenges the idea that the 1850s were a purely repressive era and highlights how civic life endured even under neoabsolutism.20252026-03-11 19:00:12Neznano28219UDK: 378.4:028.1(436)"1849/1860"ISSN pri članku: 2630-3426DOI: 10.64651/8-2-7COBISS_ID: 268640259sl
