Boleslav Jablonský (real name Karel Eugen Tupý) (14 January 1813 in Kardašova Řečice – 27 February 1881 in Kraków-Zwierzyniec) was a Czech poet and Catholic priest.
Although Jablonský studied theology, he was one of the most popular Czech poets in the 19th century, whose songs (Písně milosti) found international renown.[1]
One of his popular poems was Salomo or the wisdom of the father (Salomon neboli Moudrost otcova). A compilation of his poems (Básně) was published in 1872.
He is buried at the Vyšehrad Cemetery in Prague.
