Vztah tištěné a rukopisné produkce modlitebních knih 19. a 20. století. Na příkladu variantních názvů „Rajská růže“

The study analyzes how the content of prayer books changes in relation to aspects such as the title and form of the book, and the gender of the target reader. The study works with the prayer book Rajská růže [Paradise Rose] and examines three different title variants (Ljbezně kwětaucý Ragská Růže, Duchownj Ragská Růže, Libokwětaucý Ragská Růže). The examined corpus includes both printed and handwritten prayer books. In addition to the title and the form of the book (i.e., printed vs. handwritten), the gender of the intended reader is taken into consideration (i.e., whether it was intended for men, women, both sexes or unspecified). A content analysis and comparison of different variants of the examined prayer books allows us to observe significant changes. Although the prayer book Rajská růže may initially seem as if it is multiple editions of a single work, in reality, the content varies considerably in the specific versions of the book, largely determined by the form of the book.
