Biography
Jan Gebauer was born into a poor family in the small village of Úbislavice near the Krkonoše mountains. He has German ancestry of paternal side which has assimilated into Czech culture by marriage. Thanks to a recommendation from a local clergyman, Gebauer received an offer to study at high school in Jičín. After his school-leaving exam, he first went on to study theology, but he did not finish it and enrolled onto a philosophy program at Charles University instead. During the whole time of his studies, he suffered from a lack of money.
After finishing his studies, he started working as a teacher – in Prague at first, later in Pardubice, and finally in Prague again. He received his Ph.D. in 1872 and became a docent of the Czech language at the Charles University in 1873. In 1880 he was named professor extraordinarius and one year later professor ordinarius.
In 1886, he exposed the Manuscripts of Dvůr Králové and of Zelená Hora ("discovered" in 1817) as literary hoaxes by Václav Hanka in Masaryk's Athenaeum journal.
