Honor of Anna Hlôšková’s sixtieth birthday

Abstract

I would like to start by admitting that when I was offered the opportunity to write a short article in celebration of the sixtieth birthday of docent PhDr. Anna Hlôšková, CSc. (*7 July, 1955), lovingly known by all of us as “Hanka,” I was struck by the fact that it was fifteen years ago that I first met her in connection with the field of folklore research.
