Božena Čapková (1866-1924), mother of Karel Čapek, lived with her family in the foothills of the Giant Mountains in the small town of Úpice. In 1893 she started collecting folk songs for the Czechoslavic Ethnographical Exhibition which took place in Prague in 1895. She was responsible for the recording of texts, whilst the notation scores were done by a teacher Karel Kořízek, also from Úpice. Their collection was greatly acknowledged by the Exhibition committee as one of the best. once again in 1907, they both partook in another collection towards a project declared by the Czech Working Committee for folk song. Their collection from both projects contains 502 songs and 45 rhymes. Apart from this project, Božena Čapková collected superstitious stories, legends, fairy tales, proverbs and superstitions. She was also interested in traditional food and dress. She published several other superstitious stories regarding the water sprite in Český lid in 1896, and the terminology of Lenten meals in 1911. The author of the study found several so far unknown superstitious stories and legends and one fairy tale deposited in the Museum of Czech Literature in Staré Hrady by Jičín.
