A text bringing for the first time a comprehensive survey of Němeček's reflections on genius contained in all of his known published writings as well as in his lectures on aesthetics surviving in the handwritten student's notes taken down by Peter Eduard Bolzano. A summary of Němeček's views is followed by a review of their sources and inspirations.

The study points to the relevance of anthropology textbooks and treatises for the time's approaches to the thematization of genius.
