In den letzten Tagen erreichte Frau Mag.Dr. Seebacher, Mitglied des Rokitansky-Projektteams der Österreichischen Akademie der Wissenschaften,  folgendes Mail, das wir der Lebendigkeit halber den Interessierten gerne mitteilen - und das auf die genannte Jubiläumsveranstaltung zu Ehren Carl von Roktanskys in Königgrätz - Hradec Kralove, Republik Tschechien, am 3. März 2004 hinweist.

Weiter unten findet sich der daran anschließende Schriftverkehr mit Fotos der Organisatoren Doctora Prochazkova und Professor emeritus Stefan, beide Karlsuniversität Prag - Verbindungen über Grenzen hinweg, wenn das immer so leicht und angenehm wie hier möglich wäre!

Dear Mgr. Seebacher,

I am Olga Prochazkova, an anatomist from Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Kralove, Charles University. I am organizing under the auspices of the dean of Faculty, major of Hradec Kralove and Purkyne society at our faculty on 3.3. a meeting of academy community to worship Birthday Anniversary of Carl von Rokitansky, born in our city. Together with the Exhibition about Carl von Rokitansky. The main contributor will be Professor Emeritus of Charles University MUDr. Hviezdoslav Stefan, DrSc., distinguished surgeon and historiographer of Rokitansky (wrote a book about Rokitansky 50 years ago).

Professor Stefan in spite of his age (born in 1920) still operates and is involved in the Academic life. Yesterday we have obtained the Programme of Wien Jubleaumsveranstaltungen zum 200. Geburtstag from Prof. Steiner, who is an invited speaker in the programme. We have decided with professor Stefan to join et least the whole first day programme in Akademie,
Wissenschaftliches Symposium und Austellung. The dean of our faculty supports our activity. We will arrive on Thursday 19.2. morning by car and will leave the same day evening. Please, is it convenient and acceptable for organisers? Am I be sure, please, that the demanding journey will be for professor Stefan worthwhile and we both will have the opportunity to join all first day events? 

We also hope to gain maximum information and material for the Rokitansly exhibition at the Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Kralove and transfer especially for the sake of our students to make the great European Rokitansky alive.

With best wishes and regards

Sincerely

Olga Prochazkova, M.D.
