Písacích

Písacích is a Czech linguistic form that appears in two distinct contexts: as a grammatical case and as a place name. In grammar, it is the dative plural of the noun písac, which means “author” or “writer.” The dative case is used to indicate the indirect object of a sentence, and písacích therefore translates roughly to “to (or for) the writers.” A typical usage might be “dáváme rady písacích,” meaning “we give advice to the writers.” This form is common in literary criticism, academic references, and discussions of publishing, where attention is directed toward groups of authors.

As a geographical reference, Písacích is associated with the municipality of Písac in the Central Bohemian Region of the Czech Republic. The settlement lies near the confluence of the Litavka and Desná rivers and has a population of roughly 2,500 residents. Historically, the village was first mentioned in a 13th‑century charter as “Pysac.” Over the centuries, Písac has developed through agricultural production, small‑scale manufacturing, and recently a growing tourism sector centered on its well‑preserved Baroque church of St. Wenceslaus and nearby heritage sites. The local economy is also supported by an annual cultural festival that celebrates regional music, cuisine, and crafts. Písac’s municipal administration is responsible for maintaining public services, preserving historic architecture, and promoting sustainable land use in cooperation with regional authorities.

The dual nature of the word illustrates the richness of Czech linguistic and cultural practice: a term that both denotes a professional community in literary discourse and marks a specific locality with its own historical identity. References to both contexts can be found in contemporary Czech dictionaries, municipal documents, and academic articles on Czech literary history.
