Summary:Due to the expansion of the old Czech literary production during the 14th century, the Luxembourg era in the Czech lands is characterized by a large number of literary monuments. While creating their texts, medieval authors followed established rules which were reflected not only in the individual literary genres but also in the types of characters depicted. The study focuses on women and the possible ways of describing them, all with emphasis on virgins, wives, and widows. For these categories, external and internal characteristics are examined, while the characters' appearance or activity in the plot is not omitted.
