abstract
This article explores the international database projects, which deal with scholarly correspondence in the sixteenth to eighteenth century and investigate the Early Modern republic of letters. The author evaluates these databases’ potential contribution to research of subjects related to Bohemia. Using the example of John Amos Comenius’s correspondence, whose catalogue is part of the Early Modern Letters Online database, this contribution shows ways of using digital tools for its research and interpretation.
