=== Natives === The modern Czech nation was formed through the process of the [[Czech national revival]]. Through this was created the linguistic concept of the Czech nation (particularly promoted by Jungmann), i.e. "a Czech=one who has the [[Czech language]] as their first language; naturally or by choice" (that is why [[Slovaks]] who have chosen Czech as their literary language, such as [[Ján Kollár]] or [[Pavel Jozef Šafařík]], are often considered to be Czechs). Like other nations, Czechs also speak of two alternative concepts: the landed concept (a Czech is someone who was born in the historic Czech territory), which in Jungmann's time primarily denoted [[Czech nobility|nobility]], and the ethnic concept. Definition by territory is still discussed alternative,<ref>{{cite web|url=http://blisty.cz/art/44512.html|title=Co je češství|website=blisty.cz|access-date=20 December 2017|archive-date=2 February 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170202050049/http://blisty.cz/art/44512.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.cs-magazin.com/index.php?a=a2011121kdo|title=CS Magazin|website=Cs-magazin.com|access-date=20 December 2017|archive-date=22 December 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171222053319/http://www.cs-magazin.com/index.php?a=a2011121kdo|url-status=live}}</ref> from time to time is indicated for Czechs number of natives (speaking mostly German, English or otherwise) – these include US Secretary of State [[Madeleine Albright]], film director [[Karel Reisz]], actor [[Herbert Lom]], the founder of psychoanalysis [[Sigmund Freud]], the founder of genetics [[Gregor Mendel]], logician and mathematician [[Kurt Gödel]], the philosopher [[Edmund Husserl]], scientists [[Gerty Cori]], [[Carl Cori]] and [[Peter Grünberg]] (all Nobel Prize winners) and [[Ernst Mach]], economists [[Joseph Schumpeter]] and [[Eugen Böhm von Bawerk]], philosophers [[Bernard Bolzano]], [[Ernest Gellner]], [[Vilém Flusser]] and [[Herbert Feigl]], Marxist theoretician [[Karl Kautsky]], astronomer [[Johann Palisa]], legal theorist [[Hans Kelsen]], inventors [[Alois Senefelder]] and [[Viktor Kaplan]], automotive designer [[Ferdinand Porsche]], psychologist [[Max Wertheimer]], a geologist [[Karl von Terzaghi]], musicologists [[Eduard Hanslick]] and [[Guido Adler]], chemist [[Johann Josef Loschmidt]], biologists [[Heinrich Wilhelm Schott]] and [[Georg Joseph Kamel]], the founder of the dermatology [[Ferdinand Ritter von Hebra]], peace activist [[Bertha von Suttner]] (Nobel Peace Prize), the composers [[Gustav Mahler]], [[Heinrich Biber]], [[Viktor Ullmann]], [[Ervin Schulhoff]], [[Pavel Haas]], [[Erich Wolfgang Korngold]] and [[Ralph Benatzky]], writers [[Franz Kafka]], [[Reiner Maria Rilke]], [[Max Brod]], [[Karl Kraus (writer)|Karl Kraus]], [[Franz Werfel]], [[Marie von Ebner-Eschenbach]], [[Leo Perutz]], [[Tom Stoppard]] and [[Egon Erwin Kisch]], painters [[Anton Raphael Mengs]] and [[Emil Orlik]], architects [[Adolf Loos]], [[Peter Parler]], [[Josef Hoffmann]], [[Jan Santini Aichel]] and [[Kilian Ignaz Dientzenhofer]], cellist [[David Popper]], violist [[Heinrich Wilhelm Ernst]], pianists [[Alice Herz-Sommer]] and [[Rudolf Serkin]], president of Austria [[Karl Renner]], Prime Minister of Poland [[Jerzy Buzek]], industrialist [[Oskar Schindler]], or chess player [[Wilhelm Steinitz]].
