dc.descriptionIn this paper, we are interested in the teaching of probability theory in Prague and Czechoslovakia, in particular during the 1930's. We focus specially on a textbook, published in Prague by Karel Rychlik in 1938, which uses Kolmogorov's axiomatization, a very exceptional fact before World War II.
